Handcrafted tenor guitar with stunning looks and articulated tone.
The Blueridge BR-70T Contemporary Series Tenor acoustic guitar combines vintage style with modern playability. It features a solid Sitka spruce top and Santos rosewood back and sides for articulate highs, rich lows and balanced projection.
Vintage Style, Modern Playability
With its natural gloss finish, abalone rosette and hexagonal fingerboard inlays, the BR-70T nods to tradition. At the same time, its 1.2656" nut width and low-profile mahogany neck with an easy-playing radius make it comfortable for contemporary playing styles. The shorter scale length provides slinky string tension perfect for folk, blues and jazz.
Premium Tonewoods for Resonant Sound
As the top wood, Sitka spruce is prized for its strength, lightness and ability to vibrate freely, producing crisp articulation and balanced projection. Santos rosewood back and sides add warmth, richness and tonal depth. Together, these select tonewoods generate the resonant, harmonically complex voice for which Blueridge guitars are known.
Built to Last
Blueridge constructs the BR-70T to professional standards, with dovetail neck joint, hand-rubbed polyurethane finish and nickel-plated tuners. Scalloped X-bracing optimizes the responsiveness of the solid top. The result is an instrument with inherent stability that stays in tune and sounds full and open.
Versatile and Expressive
With its warm and balanced acoustic voice, the BR-70T Contemporary Series Tenor guitar suits many musical styles. It's ideal for folk, blues, jazz and more. The shorter scale makes stretching between chords a breeze. See why Blueridge's handcrafted quality and vintage-inspired designs have made them a favorite of discerning players.
