The Union Series TU3TLCESB offers a finely crafted blend of classic acoustic resonance and modern performance features, making it an exceptional choice for players seeking both visual appeal and tonal versatility. This Thinline Hybrid Acoustic model is built with a folk-style cutaway body, allowing easy access to the higher frets while retaining the intimate, focused sound folk guitars are celebrated for. Its Spruce top delivers a bright, articulate tone with a responsive dynamic range, making it ideal for both strumming and fingerstyle playing.

Complementing the Spruce top are Okoume back and sides, which contribute a warm, rounded low end and a balanced midrange presence. This combination enhances the guitar’s natural acoustic voice while maintaining a comfortable lightweight feel, particularly valuable in a thinline design. The Purple Heart wood fingerboard and bridge not only add a striking visual contrast to the instrument but also provide a smooth, stable playing surface that supports excellent sustain and tonal clarity.

Designed with performance in mind, the TU3TLCESB is fitted with an undersaddle transducer EQ system. This allows for effortless amplification, ensuring the guitar’s nuanced acoustic sound translates clearly in live settings or recording environments. The controls are intuitive and responsive, enabling quick tonal adjustments without interrupting the flow of performance.

The guitar is completed with a Sunburst Satin finish, offering a more natural, understated aesthetic while allowing the wood to breathe and resonate freely. The satin texture provides a smooth, non-reflective surface that feels comfortable against the hands and body. Whether you’re playing on stage, recording in the studio, or enjoying a session at home, the Union Series TU3TLCESB delivers a refined acoustic-electric experience, balancing traditional craftsmanship with contemporary features in a beautifully constructed instrument.
