UTILIZATION

Channel comfortable despite the end of freight that would have a little steep
deserved a better polish. /!
Easy access thanks to the sharp cutaway
Good balance, reasonable weight despite the presence of pre-amp.
Simplified by setting the tuner.
Its quite nice.

SOUNDS

It suits my use of guitar for the study.
The overall sound is quite serious and just snapping with good acute
that resonates well.
A sound physiological rather flattering and should be suitable for use in
accompaniment.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for my birthday on 08/07/2004
I love the cutaway very rare on a classic left-handed.
I tried before an LH Cuenca 10G to 290 € (% https://fr.audiofanzine.com/produits/avis/index 2Cidproduit 2C16199.html%), but I found the sound less
original.

Catalogue prices at € 600 for the left-handed I had to € 500 with a case
rigid OCCAZ in California Gaucher, because it was a model expo.
I think the price / quality ratio is pretty good even if the instrument
is made in Korea as a model with options equivalent
Cuenca would have cost me over € 1200: /! Takamine thank you ^ o ^!
With the experience seen the options of the instrument and re obtained
who is approaching 17% I redo the same choice ^ - ^!

Only regret ...
The finishing of the ends of the frets for improvement: /!
