One of my Tanglewoods. Pretty low quality everything and the intonation isn’t great bit it’s excellent fun for certain things and good for leaving in the van. Currently in F# standard. It’ll handle E standard with 11s but only just. I’ll put 12s on next. 13s if I can find them without a wound G (the fourth fret shreds wound ones). There are so many guitars out there and they’re all pretty good so I thought I might as well pick a brand and go with it. I’ve got a Tanglewood dreadnought and acoustic bass too. Will add a parlour next although I might deviate to Faith for one of those. I’ve already broken the rule with a thin body Ibanez after all.

I have a couple of Tanglewoods . A shiny 45 and a matt 145  both semi acoustic " cut away folk "  . I am a " 9s " man myself  find them much easier to play and bend . I use Elixir  Nano Web .

If the photo doesn’t adequately show, it’s a travel size with a short scale. I think I’ve got 9s or 10s on my strat. I’ve got acoustic 11s or 12s on my SG at the moment but in drop C. A girl I know plays folk with 13s. I was sceptical but they feel great. I’ve been dotting around trying different strings for years but I always come back to D’Addario. I really wanted to like Rotosound because they’re made in England and they give you a spare e but they feel dry as fuck.

Just bought this Ibanez RG 652 Prestige, with a nice Ash body and Birdseye maple neck, RGs are normally considered hard rock/metal guitars, but can get all sorts of tone from this, it’s beautifully versatile with the DiMarzio pickups and build quality is absolutely superb- well chuffed.

Love the necks on Ibanez, easy to move around on them - well the one I tried anyway

Yeah I have a Korean built RG270dx which I bought in 2002- thought the neck was thin on that but this new prestige model with 5 piece neck is thinner still-17mm at 1st. I get a weird RSI thing in my left hand- slight pins and needles etc after playing for long periods but it’s not so bad with Ibanez necks for some reason.
