After 5 months of use, I can confirm that it has a really good sound. The wood has a little dried and it opened. BUT .. yeah, there is a but, I was forced to change the bridge saddle. The original was, admittedly, bone, but without any notch. The E string was false from the ground agreement and rope SI was wrong all over the neck. Can not play Blackbird who had taken the lead in the wing. A cry. I took her to the luthier who settled haired shift, the problem was solved. But ... but another !!

Can not play Blackbird who had taken the lead in the wing. A cry. I took her to the luthier who settled haired shift, the problem was solved. But ... but another !! When I plugged into the amp, the sound was rotten. stifled, without relief. I started to have the balls for good, so I recovered a nut plastoc an old Cort that sounded fair and well, she and I adapted lime glass and paper, This Takamine. Since then, it sounds really good. Nothing to do when compared her no she had.
So in conclusion, a very good guitar, but after changing the mechanical and the nut. You decide. Today I do not change.

USE

Handle very nice. No difficulty to place chords, tough.
Good ergonomics, not too light nor heavy. well what ... Access to acute is easy with the cutaway.
It gives a good sound by changing the original strings to prefer those with a more crystalline, slightly metallic. Forced otherwise the fund that is mahogany does not return as one might expect. But it is because it is new. After it is done ....

SOUNDS

Over time, the sound is a little open, it became really nice Hot and round, strong to pick.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I use it for 4 months, I chose to have a guitar easy to live cheap, mahogany, with a massive table, and very beautiful. The color is really great matter of taste of course. It is a good value for money. I have changed the mechanics. The originals are basic Gotoh and do not take the deal. I put in more expensive models. It's good now.

Made in Japan. Handle very nice. For the characteristics it is better to watch on a merchant site. Super

UTILIZATION

handle. No need to search, to the Agreements, the fingers fall on it. Very good ergonomics, well balanced, easy access to acute since there is the cutaway. The sound is good, very complete with good bass and treble medium does, but I think the mahogany body and solid top for many there are.

SOUNDS

It is well suited to folk, pop-rock, bossa .. some styles. They are very versatile. The microphone is very good. Powerful and integrated tuner makes it much service on stage, even daily

OVERALL OPINION

OVERALL OPINION

I for 6 months. Of course, it does not apply to Martin and other Gibson, the price is not the same either, but what we can learn from this model is quite surprising. I had chosen for its color, and price. I was not disappointed.
