Tanglewood has unveiled the Sundance Performance Pro acoustic guitar series, composed of six flagship models.

Designed by Swedish luthier Michael Sanden, the guitars feature all-solid wood construction, Custom Masterdesign parallel and fan tapered bracing patterns, and premium reserve timbers, while electro models also include Fishman Presys Plus electronics.

The range starts with the Dreadnought X15 (£699), two Superfolk cutaway X45AVE and X45E models (£799) and the all-solid mahogany X47E.
