Description
Baton Rouge TLM/ACEC Acoustic Electric Guitar
The TLM/ACEC sits beautifully in your hands with its comfortable auditorium cutaway body and responsive playing feel. The 630mm scale length and 46mm nut width give you room to move through both full chords and fast lead lines without hand strain. This is a guitar built to be played night after night—engineered with sustainable materials but never at the expense of acoustic punch or reliable stage amplification.
Construction & Tonal Character
The solid German spruce top rewards your touch with clear, articulate tones and plenty of dynamic range for expressive playing. Flamed maple back and sides focus the sound with excellent projection and brightness that cuts through a live mix. rECOtimber woods run throughout the build, proving that responsible sourcing and tonal quality go hand in hand. The natural satin open-pore finish lets the wood resonate freely while showing off the grain in natural light.
Playability & Electronics
The maple neck paired with eucalyptus fingerboard and bridge gives you smooth, fast action and built-to-last durability under constant gigging. Bone nut and saddle lock in consistent sustain and tonal clarity across every string. The onboard Cole Clark pickup system captures your acoustic voice faithfully when you plug in—transparent enough for studio work, punchy enough for live venues. Elixir strings come pre-installed, so you get rich tone right out of the box with strings that hold their voice through tour schedules.
