Away from the road, Tess’ Tanglewood is always nearby…
“I write all my songs on acoustic before I take them in to the band to amplify them and the TW-15 is the guitar I tend to pick up to write on. It’s such a comfortable guitar to play with lovely bright tones. And although our new album AMPLIFY has a rock foundation you can still hear my Tanglewood jangling through on tracks such as Believe and This Higher Ground'” – Tess Jones
