Jasmine By Takamine S34C NEX Acoustic Guitar Review

I was thrilled when my guitar arrived and even more so after I tuned it and began to play.

My guitar is absolutely beautiful. The finish is flawless. And it's got that new guitar smell...ahhhhhh.

It does have a pick guard (that is not shown in the photo on any website or in any catalog) which pleases me. It would be a shame to scratch the surface while strumming with a heavier pick. I read one review on a music vendor's website where the reviewer complained about Takamine and Jasmine printed all over the pick guard. And they were right about that...but I found it very easy to remove all these words by simply peeling off this protective sticker. Dah.

The strings are a little heavier than I like but I'll be changing them in a few weeks anyway.

The sound and craftsmanship is anything but what you would expect from such an affordable guitar and everything you'd expect to pay more for. It has a rich, full bodied sound.

I am now a diehard Takamine fan.

Takamine TAN16C Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Gloss Natural Review

Takamine TAN16C Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Gloss Natural
Average Reviews:

Beautifully constructed and finished, amazing sound either acoustic or plugged.

This guitar is wonderful, just 2 weeks playing and it works very well. The woods give you a bright tone but sweet at the same time, the balance between bass and treble is wonderful. Very comfortable to play either with your fingers or with a pick.

When you play it acoustic it sounds incredible but when you plugged it is when you find its real value, the preamp itself sounds good but when you include the on board tube on the chain the sound is huge, sweetly compressed as only tubes can. No more boomy bass on a guitar, you can understand every detail. I have even played on some concerts with it and everyone at my band is amazed. Nice choice. I made an extensive research and found this like the one I was searching for... now that I own it, I can proudly say that I was right.

Recommended!!!

Takamine GS330S Acoustic Guitar Review

Takamine GS330S Acoustic Guitar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This was my first nice guitar that I ever had, I received it as a birthday present one year and have now owned it and played it for roughly 4-5 years and it still sounds great. I have several other guitars that are more expensive and I keep coming back to this one the tone is rich and it is a very well rounded guitar good for playing anything from country to rock and roll... from strumming background to picking solos. The only thing that some may have an issue with is the fact that it is quite thick... I'm 6'1" and it still seems pretty big at times however the richness of the tone and overall responsiveness is just unmatched as far as I'm concerned. The pressure that the fret board requires to produce a clean note isn't like other acoustic guitars even with heavy strings it doesn't require you to kill your fingers in the process of playing which allows for hours of painless playing. I would give this guitar more stars if I could, invest in a guitar that will last and sounds good because it's pointless to go cheap and end up not liking it then buying another one until you end up with a bunch of cheap guitars that you don't like because you'll end up buying an nice one eventually anyway so save some money and buy this one and I guarantee you will love it for years to come I know I will.

Takamine EG5403SVFT NEX Solid Top Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Antique Sunburst Review

Takamine EG5403SVFT NEX Solid Top Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Antique Sunburst
Average Reviews:

If you are into fingerstyle blues - this Korean made Takamine guitar is a great place to start.It features a well matched spruce top, laminated maple sides and back and an excellent electronic system that includes a tuner.The tone on this model is "old blues" with just a hint of brightness...but is missing just a little mid range, however this is something that should improve with playing.The violin burst finish is matte in texture and in color has that old faded blues box look.The neck is in a mild v shape, 14 frets accessible, with a nut width of 1 11/16.If you have big fingers, perhaps further research into guitars with nut widths of 1 3/4 would be in your interest, but I have found it to be comfortable.

I bought it to replace another guitar that I had outgrown and have found this to be an excellent intermediate choice.Perfect for learning fingerstyle blues.

The only negatives is that the back and sides are maple laminate and this model lacks a cutaway.However, for the cost this is a good value and if you feel the need for a cutaway - Takamine makes this model with the same finish plus the cutaway.

Recommended and good value for what you will spend!!!!

Kona Thin Body Acoustic/Electric Guitar - Red (K2TRD) Review

One of my favorite purchases.Found this girl on the wall at a pawn shop in Tomball Texas. I bought it because i was tired of taking some of my more expensive guitars on the road in the back of my van with all the other electronic equipment tubling around.I liked this K2TRD because for an expensive guitar it has great sound and a boat load of resonance. My next trick was to pull the string off and replace them with D Adarrio 10's so i could play this guitar like an electric and be able to bend strings........works great and everyone who plays it loves it...hrt

EF508KC NEX Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar (Koa) Review

EF508KC NEX Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've owned this guitar about a year. It was very difficult for me to buy an acoustic electric guitar. I have been playing for over 15 years a hand made classical guitar which was made in the mid 1950s. As you can imagine, a brazilian wood guitar with aged wood of over 50 years is going to have an incredible tone to it and it does. I read online about guitars and was pretty sure I was going to buy a Taylor guitar. However when I went to the store I tried several of them costing several thousand dollars but I really wasn't all that impressed. I wanted a guitar that I simply sat down and played and to be blown away by it (not amplified).
I accidently read about this guitar and several people who own Taylor guitars said this is better than the Taylors they currentlly own. So, I went back to the store and tried this, I noticed immediately that this was better sounding and looking than any of the others I tried. Also, the on board tuner is fabulous, I wouldn't do without it now. It especially turned me on to trying alternative tunnings as it is so easy to get back to the regular one.
Also, the great KOA sound without the $2000.00 + price tag. A keeper.
