Turnstone TG, Bog Oak & Western Red Cedar
Details
The TG is currently the largest model size in the Turnstone range. It’s a really versatile grand auditorium-sized instrument that encompasses a deep, tapered body and generous lower bout dimensions. This means it can excel at dynamic strumming, but a tighter waist means that it’s also great for more delicate fingerstyle.
This is an ‘E-Series’ model which means that every wood component of the guitar is made out of wood grown in England. This is a very passionate aspect to luthier Rosie Heydenrych’s work, highlighting the beautiful tonewoods available from her home country. This model displays a beautiful set of 5000-year-old Fenland black oak, teamed with a striking western red cedar soundboard.
Features include a side soundport and a roll-over arm bevel for additional comfort. With a powerfully deep and rich voice, this E-Series TG is great for lowered alternative tunings and traditional-inspired music.
