The Union TUN8E is a charming and characterful electro-acoustic guitar that captures the distinctive voice of the traditional parlour body shape while incorporating modern electronics for added versatility. Compact, comfortable, and rich in personality, it is an instrument that appeals to players seeking an intimate acoustic experience with the convenience of amplified performance.

Constructed with a Solid Mahogany top and complemented by Mahogany back and sides, the TUN8E produces a warm and articulate tone with impressive detail and balance. The all-Mahogany build creates a focused midrange response and smooth tonal character that suits fingerstyle playing particularly well, while still providing enough projection and presence for strumming and accompaniment work.

The parlour body shape offers a unique playing experience, delivering a focused and expressive voice that has been favoured by blues, folk, and singer-songwriter musicians for generations. Its compact dimensions make it exceptionally comfortable to hold, whether practising at home, performing on stage, or travelling with the instrument. Despite its smaller size, the TUN8E produces a surprisingly rich and resonant sound with excellent clarity.

For situations where amplification is required, the guitar is fitted with the Tanglewood TEQ MX EQ system. This dependable onboard preamp allows players to connect easily to amplifiers, PA systems, and recording equipment while maintaining the natural character of the instrument’s acoustic tone.

Finished in a beautiful Open Pore Natural finish, the TUN8E showcases the organic beauty of its Mahogany construction. The finish allows the wood to breathe and resonate naturally, contributing to the guitar’s lively response and authentic feel.

Blending traditional parlour charm with modern functionality, the Union TUN8E offers a distinctive voice, outstanding comfort, and reliable amplified performance. It is an inspiring instrument for players who appreciate character, craftsmanship, and timeless acoustic tone.
