Lâg Tramontane T98D Dreadnought

A Tramontane Dreadnought Built for the Folk Stage

With its natural glossy finish and black hardware, the T98D Tramontane Dreadnought features a sleek and modern aesthetic. Its dreadnought format follows the great tradition of powerful folk guitars, designed to fill the sonic space in strumming and pick playing alike, while maintaining a balanced feel for chord work and rhythm playing.

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

This steel-string folk guitar is particularly suited for beginner to intermediate guitarists seeking an expressive and stable instrument, but it also fits a seasoned musician as a robust accompaniment guitar. It excels in folk, pop, country, and variety: any style requiring projection, attack, and solid chord sustain, whether in energetic rhythm or sustained arpeggios.

The Sound

The solid khaya top delivers a direct and musical response, with present mids and dynamics that follow the right hand well: the more you play, the more the instrument reveals nuances. The khaya back and sides reinforce this warm and balanced character, favoring roundness and spectral coherence over a too-bright sound. The dreadnought format naturally promotes projection and a solid low-end foundation, highly appreciated for vocal accompaniment. The Brown BrankoWood fingerboard and bridge contribute to a clear attack and good balance, while the black graphite compensated nuts help maintain comfortable intonation across the entire neck.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To stay as close as possible to the original feel, choose a steel folk string set Light 12-52 in phosphor bronze (ideally coated type). A clip-on tuner and a microfiber cloth are also perfectly suited for maintenance and daily use.
