ESP LTD TL-6N Nylon String Acoustic Electric Guitar in Natural Finish
The TL-6N delivers a comfortable, responsive playing experience with its thin U-shaped neck contour and smooth rosewood fingerboard—ideal for fingerstyle work across classical, flamenco, bossa nova, and singer-songwriter applications. Nylon strings produce a warm, mellow tone with excellent sustain and clarity, while the acoustic-electric design lets you capture unplugged character or amplified signals without compromise. This is an instrument that rewards extended tracking and overdub sessions through its balanced voicing and organic responsiveness.
Construction & Tonal Foundation
The chambered mahogany body with spruce top is paired with a 3-piece mahogany neck featuring set-neck construction for stability and sustain. The thin U neck contour and 25" scale rosewood fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets create an ergonomic platform that feels natural under the fingers, while the 42" overall length and 3.4 kg weight deliver excellent balance for extended session work.
Amplification & Studio Control
A B-Band Electret film transducer paired with the B-Band T-7 Preamp captures your natural acoustic tone with clarity and transparency—preserving the instrument's character when tracking direct or monitoring through a mixing console. The preamp features a 3-band EQ, phase filter, volume control, and onboard tuner—giving you precise control over your signal path and tone shaping in the studio or during live sessions.
