Introducing the Tanglewood EMDC2 Electro Classical Guitar – Enredo Madera Dominar

If you're searching for a professional-grade electro classical guitar that delivers rich acoustic tone, elegant aesthetics, and reliable amplified performance, look no further than the Tanglewood Enredo Madera Dominar EMDC2. This outstanding instrument is now available at Music Bits, your trusted independent music retailer in Lincolnshire.

What Is the Tanglewood EMDC2?

The Tanglewood EMDC2 is part of the prestigious Enredo Madera Dominar series — a range of classical guitars built for musicians who demand both beauty and performance. Combining traditional Spanish-style classical guitar craftsmanship with modern electronics, the EMDC2 is a versatile instrument equally at home on stage, in the studio, or in the practice room.

It's a full-size thinline cutaway classical guitar, making it an exceptional choice for players transitioning from acoustic to electro-acoustic performance, or for seasoned professionals seeking a dependable gigging classical guitar.

Thinline Cutaway Body – Comfort and Access Combined

One of the most practical features of the EMDC2 is its thinline cutaway body shape. Unlike traditional classical guitars with a deep body and rounded lower bout, the thinline design reduces body depth, making it significantly more comfortable to hold — particularly for smaller-framed players or those used to steel-string acoustics and electric guitars.

The cutaway provides unrestricted access to the upper frets, opening up the full tonal range of the fingerboard for soloists and lead players. Whether you're performing advanced classical repertoire, intricate flamenco passages, or contemporary fingerstyle arrangements, the EMDC2's body shape supports expressive, uninhibited playing.

Tonewoods – Spruce Top, Mahogany Back & Sides

The tonal character of any acoustic guitar begins with its tonewoods, and the EMDC2 is built with a carefully chosen combination for a balanced, articulate sound.

• Spruce top – The spruce soundboard is the most common choice for classical and acoustic guitars for good reason. It delivers a bright, clear, and articulate tone with excellent projection. Spruce responds beautifully to the light touch of nylon strings, producing crisp note definition and a wide dynamic range — from soft, intimate passages to bold, resonant chords.
• Mahogany back and sides – Mahogany is renowned for its warm, rich midrange response. Paired with the spruce top, it adds depth and fullness to the sound, creating the classic tone that classical and Spanish guitar players love. The mahogany also contributes to excellent sustain and note bloom.
• Walnut stained fingerboard – The walnut fingerboard offers a smooth playing surface with a natural feel, providing comfortable fretting for both nylon-string classical technique and more modern playing styles.

Tanglewood Premier Plus EQ Electronics

The Tanglewood Premier Plus EQ system is what truly sets the EMDC2 apart from a standard acoustic classical guitar. Designed for amplified performance, this onboard electronics system captures the natural acoustic voice of the guitar and faithfully reproduces it through any amplifier or PA system.

Key benefits of the Premier Plus EQ include:

• Natural, transparent tone reproduction – The pickup system is tuned to preserve the warmth and clarity of the spruce top and mahogany body, so what you hear acoustically is what your audience hears amplified.
• Intuitive EQ controls – Easily adjust treble, mid, and bass frequencies to suit any venue, from intimate acoustic sets to large live stages.
• Reliable performance – Built for the demands of regular gigging and studio use, the Premier Plus EQ is both robust and responsive.

For classical guitarists, folk players, flamenco performers, and fingerstyle guitarists who need to be heard without sacrificing tone, the EMDC2's electronics deliver exactly that.

Natural Gloss Finish

The EMDC2 is finished in a natural gloss, showcasing the beauty of the natural tonewoods beneath. The gloss finish not only looks stunning under stage lighting but also provides durable protection for the instrument's body. The smooth surface aids playability and gives the guitar a premium, professional appearance worthy of any performance setting.

Who Is the Tanglewood EMDC2 For?

The EMDC2 is a genuinely versatile instrument suited to a wide range of players and musical styles:

• Classical guitarists looking for a full-size nylon string guitar with the added benefit of onboard electronics for live performance.
• Flamenco players who want a cutaway guitar for enhanced upper fret access.
• Fingerstyle guitarists seeking the warmth and expressiveness of a classical-style instrument in a more comfortable, modern format.
• Intermediate to advanced players who want a professional-quality electro classical guitar without a professional price tag.
• Gigging musicians who need a reliable, great-sounding electro-acoustic classical guitar for live venues.
• Studio musicians requiring a versatile classical guitar for recordings where both direct-input and microphone options are needed.
