All user reviews for the Takamine TAN60C

Features are available on the net or in other reviews, I do not want to duplicate

any time a small detail that was the subject of my choice: the width of the neck that lies between classical and folk (or electric); Nut width is approximately 48 mm

the change I made on my own:
replacing the pre-amp tube cool CTP-1 by the CTP-2

UTILIZATION

I bought it for her as a conventional handle closer because I am electric guitar player.
the passage of the electric above is very easy

the volume is balanced between the strings, the neck is very fair, the tube preamp gives a good presence (modifiable via a knob) and an interesting volume

the preamp a slight breath because of the tube but is minimal and disappears when we play. there are 4 AA batteries stick, their life is very correct whatever is said.

at its weight, it is neither too light nor too heavy, it is well balanced on his knees with a strap or (fasteners are original)

SOUNDS

I play bossa nova, French pop duo in training, we did some dates per year

I beeps a sound Samson XP308i with a DI "DI ultrasound more pre-amp" box that is, incidentally, a very good case of DI
I will soon be able to try it on an amp SR Technology Jam 150 that I will receive soon. I intend to use it as the back and front Samson

empty (without amplification), the projected sound is very good but not very strong as can non-electro guitar. it can be an advantage when you want to play at home without disturbing. it becomes a bit problematic when playing with stronger guitar

amplified, I have very little feedback, the equalizer allows to play different style (gypsy, bossa nova, classical, etc)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years, this is my second acoustic guitar nylon

I owned a LAG Tramontane as first guitar, less good quality and less accurate than the latter (normal given the difference in price ...) but already sounded pretty

his handle is accurate, giving it to use it with precision ... if it can do "dirty"

in short, it is a very good guitar for the stage, the house, to progress, quality manufacturing will allow him to live very long

• Left.

UTILIZATION

Guitar easy to play, folk and handle his size is not too big and is very comfortable to play.

It will be appreciated live the tuner (the nylon strings do not like temperature changes on stage ...)

SOUNDS

Guiatre sound very acoustic sounding round and warm.
His prémapli tube works wonders on a table, the bass is superb.
The sound has a rather warm color (tube preamp I guess)

OVERALL OPINION

3 years of use at home on stage, 3 years of pure pleasure to play.
In short excellent guitar that has everything a great ...
In addition it is very nice and finish are superb.

Made in Japan, it has 21 frets and a superb prampli lamp.
Rglages volume, 3-Tone frequencies and tuner incorporating (MUST !!!!)

UTILIZATION

The handle is enjoyable and trs CHAC all the notes is very easy.
The guitar is very well balance and we do not really feel.
However, it is a little time to refine rglages if you want to move from its aggressive sound trs round

SOUNDS

With a group of friends, we play the bossa and folk inspired by African music, sometimes jazz. And it perfectly fits all styles.

OVERALL OPINION

I just offered me this wonderful gift of Christmas.
The game must be because the trs prcis prampli forgets nothing and especially not the quirks and noises that surround the Manir incongruous to play an amateur.
This hand set is an amazing guitar. The handle is trs flexible, easy to play. Its width allows arpges easy as a game more "groovy". The sound is standard, especially if you take the chorus with cool tube.
This is a guitar that I highly recommend all fans who want to go a little further than the improvised encounters between friends.
I use a combo Derrire AER compact 60 watts. It's something crazy.
Only BMOL, you need to spend a little time to refine the rglages prampli as the sound you want.

Happy New Year everyone

PPTALL

It's a Takamine Japan (hand made I believe).
It has a handle folk (that's what attracted me mostly), but with nylon strings. The tube preamp is colorful enough for my taste but that is exactly what I wanted. It also includes a tuner.

It competes well with guitars making several times its price.

UTILIZATION

The playability is amazing. The handle is accurate, it forgives a lot smaller approximations, even if one does obviously a clear sound that is very rigorous. It is quite small, not too heavy, so that you can play standing for several hours with the guitar strap not too tired.

I use it primarily for the stage, not so much for the home.

I transplanted directly into a mixer or via a direct box, or via a wireless transmitter. The sound is very precise and already quite colorful without needing to use an amp.

SOUNDS

The sound is exactly what I wanted. I use it for a little over 3 years, and you can clearly hear the sounds evolve into more heat. In fact, it almost seems to play with folk, but with the roundness of nylon. It is rather odd.
It is situated exactly in a sort of compromise between the brilliance of steel strings and the warmth of nylons. So, we can worship as we may hate it.
Whether amplified or not, it renders very well the entire frequency range (what was for me an absolute pre-requisite) with very low current and mediums hot.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a little over 3 years, mainly for the stage.

I have tried many models, including Taylor (twice as expensive) that are probably above in terms of quality, but before that the Takamine has really nothing to be ashamed.

I love its shape and color of wood, matte varnish, it really sends a sense of quality. I really like how the sound has to evolve over time. The main drawback to my taste is that it does not cover plate on the table, so that mine is full of scratches (Loved pick, nails). But it can be remedied by asking a luthier by (what I did).

The quality / price is very interesting. It was a guitar very (very) good quality for a price that is measured after all.

I definitely would do this election if I had the chance. To be very honest I think even buy the same model with steel strings.
