this is my tanglewood electro-acoustic, the model of which i don’t really know.
it’s a dreadnought-sized guitar on which i learnt a couple of tunes like ‘more than words’. well, it was 1992.
bought it off webb, my then housemate, for a mere tenner. i think he bought it in cardiff for more than £150! talk about a bargain. the transducer was buggered when i bought it and it wasn’t till a few years ago my brother fixed the guitar up real good.
don’t be fooled by its ‘cheapness’. this guitar was actually used in the recording of juliana banos’ sophomore effort, jun.
this guitar now resides among an array of other guitars at karya enigma studio, kuala lumpur.
Tanglewood ni punya headstock reminds me of a particular guitar make… OH!! MARTIN rupanya! Hohohoho… You can win awards if you use Martin-ish guitars. Jangan beli Taylor. Diorang pakai duit utk tembak orang Palestin!
Good one!
This guitar also made its mark on UNIC’s second album, C.U. di I.P.T. It was also on William So’s “Guang Mang” that won a STAR award for “Best Theme Song for a TV Series” in 2001. Not so “much cheapness”, huh?
[…] i had an acoustic guitar once. then in 2002, after watching this video, the guitar she was playing caught my eye. […]
