OVERALL OPINION
- I use it for 6 months
- I played a fender before I bought 5 years ago to 2700 francs nothing to do! The Takamine is much better.
- The value for money is acceptable, it is better to € 1,000 in a takamine, rather than € 1000 in Taylor, that Taylor is the price of low-end and it's not worth a takamine (at that price I repeats)!See less00 - CerrydanPublished on 10/21/06 at 00:35 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Japanese

Living in open country, I do not have have tried many other guitars before buying.
For the price, it's a good guitar, but if c'tait again, I would look for ways to try to more competition.

UTILIZATION
The handle is easy to play and I share the same comments on other reviews.
Ergonomics is good but hey, a dreadnought could not agree all sizes. It is quite impressive nonetheless.
Access to acute is ok with cutaway ..... but it does not stretch on an acoustic anyway.
SOUNDS
Many critics criticize this Takamine guitar (Takamine or in general) but I think it sounds good. The sound is warm is subtle. It must be some playing time so that it opens new because it sounds a bit steep (be patient a little).
I can tell you that this is a good guitar because I have the chance to be proud owner of a Martin D28 and a Taylor 414. Evidence that Takamine yet still my home and I play very often.
A lot of my friends even prefer the Takamine in his warm, result of mixing cedar & mahogany.
Regarding power I have to admit that it does not have an impressive chest, but once connected it works wonders with his tube preamp, connected to an acoustic amp, preferably as the result is not the same if you plug it into a amp for electric guitars.
Overall, this is an elegant guitar is easy to get into a mix. It does not sound as bad acoustics despite its pure sound power while a lil bit limited.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for about 2 years and I am always pleased with her, or even more happy because it has really improved with time.
I had the "opportunity to play a lot of scratch for a number of years and I chose this guitar for its discreet appearance, its balanced sound and warm, and of course for the Cool Tube preamp.
What I like most is that this Takamine is simple, it sounds great perfect complement to my set.
The price / quality ratio is good despite a growing number of competitors in size that make very good guitars in Asia.
With experience, yes I do it again the choice.See less31 - srvmac

SOUNDS
For sound. It takes at least 2 years for the guitar sounds less stiff and more. It becomes comfortable from some playing time in fact.
In acoustics: I dislike more than that. It may very balanced (too) flat and neutral. It does not really sing and some personality.
on the other hand, beautiful harmonics in the wood, sustain "in" the guitar (if you stick your ear on the bar, we hear a lot of shades).
Unfortunately, we do not find this effect outside of the acoustic instrument. Too much too little volume and projection. The mild but little power indeed. Its very round table with Cedar.
Hype: This is another world
We find this both a character to Takamine. The preamp tube works perfectly. Lots of power and heat. A clean and versatile settings. It can get loud in the treble if you push too Eq. The cool tube allows good catches of his (I put a microphone in front of studio and uses the integrated preamp and more on a second track, the effect of guaranteed depth).
OVERALL OPINION
I've had a little over 2 years. I tried the Seagull, Ibanez and Yamaha but the Takamine is a favorite. Nuanced afterwards because she did not plan enough in pure acoustic sound. It was quickly covered by the voices of people at a party with friends for example, or outdoors. There is no power.
on the other hand, once connected, is happiness. This is clearly an electric guitar. Prefer a real acoustic (without preamp) to play at home and / or finger-picking.
Live, it will do wonders with his preamp effective.
Warning: the only real flaw for me a very fragile because of satin varnish (no protection against bumps and snags, however small, this guitar brand instantly).
I do not do it again this election and wait to buy a Martin D28 or Gibson Jumbo (J200).
Meanwhile, it suits me perfectly electro only. It's a shame it is not as well-in acoustics. Surely it will age very well with its solid wood and quality.
