Tanglewood Metropolitan TM3E Folk Electro Acoustic
The Metropolitan Series TM3E is a well-balanced blend of classic acoustic style and modern performance features, designed for players who demand both reliability and musicality. Its orchestra body shape delivers a clear, full-bodied tone with excellent balance across the entire frequency range, making it equally suited to expressive fingerpicking or strong, rhythmic strumming. The comfortable contours encourage long playing sessions, whether practicing or performing live.
A spruce top lies at the core of the TM3E’s sound, providing a bright, articulate response and impressive dynamic range. Paired with koa back and sides, the guitar gains additional warmth, depth, and a subtle midrange sweetness. All tonewoods are constructed using high-pressure laminate (HPL), giving the instrument remarkable durability and resistance to temperature and humidity changes without sacrificing tonal character.
The natural satin finish highlights the attractive koa grain and gives the guitar a smooth, organic feel. It reduces glare under stage lighting and contributes to the guitar’s understated yet refined appearance. Outfitted with the Tanglewood TEQ-G3 EQ system, the TM3E is ready for both studio and stage use. The intuitive onboard electronics capture the instrument’s natural acoustic character while allowing players to shape their amplified tone easily.
Whether played acoustically or plugged into an amplifier, the Metropolitan Series TM3E offers a pleasing combination of projection, clarity, and warmth. Its sturdy construction makes it a reliable travel companion, while its rich tonal personality keeps it inspiring to play. This is a guitar designed for musicians who seek dependable performance and expressive sound in equal measure.
