Takamine Review: 2002 Ltd

History:

Purchase: I bought this guitar at Guitar Center in Eugene OR.. I went to buy a Gibson but walked out with this one.

What I Like About This Takamine 2002 Ltd: This is the most beautiful guitar I have ever seen. It is absolutely gorgeous. It has Abalone whales on the fretboard and an Abalone rosette. It has a lovely whale motif around the rosette and a bound neck. It has pearlescent tuner knobs. This guitar is the best sounding instrument I have ever heard. I love everything about it. The instrument is a cutaway acoustic/electric dreadnought featuring Takamine’s popular NEX body style. The select solid spruce top combined the solid rosewood back and sides generates exceptional volume and brilliance with a deep and powerful bass. The mahogany neck joins the body at the 14th fret and features an ebony fingerboard and bridge. Takamine’s renowned palathetic pickup and CT4B preamp give the instrument broad acoustic/electric flexibility. Takamine will donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of LTD-2002 models to The Cousteau Society.

What I Do NOT Like About The Takamine 2002 Ltd: There is nothing I don't like about it.

Takamine 2002 Ltd Quality Rating: Great quality. Solid. A tuner is built into the preamp.

Review Summary: This is my dream of a guitar. I also have a Gibson L-130 and a Martin and a Takamine EG 530 C. This guitar smokes em' all.... I paid $1399 but knowing what I know now I would pay $3000 !!!

Rating of this Takamine product: 5
