Premium tonewoods make for great acoustic character





For the TL-6FM, LTD chose choice tonewoods to provide the best possible acoustic sound. The mahogany back and sides create a deep, warm, and highly resonant tone. To add a little sparkle and sweetness, an eye-catching figured maple top rounds out the body design. Together with the set mahogany neck and jatoba fingerboard, the LTD TL-6FM produces a potent blend of excellent definition and savory resonance.





Fishman electronics for stellar plugged-in tone





Since the TL-6Fm is designed to be a perfect stage companion, it needs standout electronics. The team over at LTD didn't disappoint! They equipped this acoustic-electric guitar with a Fishman Sonicore under-saddle pickup. Sonicore pickups are trusted by guitarists all over the world due to their impeccable accuracy. The pickup runs straight into a Fishman TL-3 preamp complete with tone-shaping controls and an onboard tuner. Once you plug in, you'll have an immediately useable tone that's great for any mix.
