«  I finally found my guitar ... »

Published on 01/31/12 at 08:17
In which country was it made? (United States, Japan, Mexico, France ...)?

Japan

What type of race?

Mahogany, rosewood fingerboard

How many frets, what kind of micro as well as their configuration?
What are the settings (volume, tone, micro switch ...)?

Micro Piezo
CT of Takamine preamp 4Bii

UTILIZATION

The handle is it fun?

So there precisely! This was crucial! A REGAL !!!!!
Handle end with a perfect hit (low setting)
"Not too polished"
Head and pierced (the same as any New Yorker)
Conventional mechanical type that take very good agreement!


Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?

Again, I was looking for a small guitar. It's perfect! It's a lightweight.

Access to acute (recent freight) is it easy?

No cutaway but easy access to the 14th box.

Do you get a good sound easy? ..

The sound is debatable ... This is a very small box but has a perfect sound in my opinion. Not too bright but then again that's what I was looking for. (Mounted to addario for info)
Hype is a killer!

SOUNDS

They are suitable to your style of music?

Perfect for blues, jazz (its not too flashy a bit), pop ... (I mean ... connected)

With what (s) amp (s) or effect (s) do you play?

For now Roland Cube 30 ... Correct but not better ... I am waiting for an AER or Marshall 60
AS100d
+ Boss DD7

OVERALL OPINION

8 months ... I do not separate more ...
I tried a lot of model before ... even acquired several tjs but I missed something ...
Here I am filled to the point of selling my old guitar ...

The best: Japanese-quality sound, small size and comfort of play .. especially playing comfort!

Curiously, it is not referenced by Takamine (probably model sold only in Japan.
In comparison, the TF / EF 407 (New Yorker) sold in France
