Tanglewood Sundance Historic TW40-O-AN in very clean condition. Hard case is included. There is very little wear of any kind. These are great guitars that perform way above their price range; great sound and playability and come across as much more expensive than they are. One of those IYKYK things.

From acousticguitar dot com circa 2013:

"UK-based Tanglewood Guitars has enjoyed great success in the European market with its Asian-made line of guitars, which are now available in North America as well. The TW-40-O-AN we received for review may be the most accurate re-creation of a vintage Martin OM at a budget price that we’ve seen. Pretty much every dimension, from the body size and proportions to the wide neck with V-shaped profile to the string spacing at the saddle to the diamond volute in the back of the headstock, is spot on; with my eyes closed, I could have easily been fooled based on the guitar’s feel alone—it’s even lightweight! The two main differences between the TW-40-O-AN and the vintage design are its scale (slightly longer than standard, but virtually imperceptible) and its teardrop pickguard (rather than the smaller OM style). The guitar is basically a style-18 guitar, with simple appointments and mahogany back and sides. The instrument’s craftsmanship was clean, but the finish seemed a bit thick in some areas, such as around the neck/body joint. The mahogany used for the guitar’s back was cosmetically plain, and the spruce top had a lot of dark streaks in its tight grain. With its roomy string spacing and quick tonal response, the TW-40-O-AN is ideally suited for playing fingerstyle. It had a somewhat delicate and bright voice, but with enough warmth and dynamics to approximate vintage OM character."

Solid spruce top. Laminated mahogany back and sides. Two-piece mahogany neck with dovetail joint. Rosewood fingerboard and bridge. Scalloped X-bracing. 25.6-inch scale. 1 ¾-inch nut width. 2 5/16-inch string spacing at saddle. Chrome open-back tuning machines.
