What Guitar Players Are Saying

One guitar lefty from Flint, MI says, "I bought this guitar and have only had it a week, and I cannot believe the response I have been receiving from people. They love it! I love it. It plays unbelievably. The action is perfect. It's a great all around guitar for the price. I would not second guess buying this guitar."

Another guitarist who calls himself Indian, who lives and plays guitar in Nashville, Tennessee, says, "I've owned this guitar for about a year now, and I still can't recommend its purchase enough. [The structure of this guitar takes out] some of the extreme lower frequencies that the others may have. But, that's not a bad thing. When plugged in and on stage this feature makes it much easier to mix into the P.A. without a lot of howling. And it still sounds great unplugged, too. But the first thing that impressed me was the feel of the neck. Pure fret heaven! This is the acoustic to own."

And an Eric Clapton fan in the U.S. exclaims, "This guitar is amazing–bottom line! I was in the market for a new acoustic and I tried around a total of 30 Martins, Epiphones, Ibanezes, Ovations, Fenders, and other Takamines. Finally I narrowed my search down to the Tak and a Martin for the same price. Sure, everyone would say get the Martin. I said "no"! This guitar blew the Martin away. I don't think the Martin is a bad guitar. It just didn't have that extra bright sound that only a jumbo size could offer. I strongly suggest this guitar."

The Bottom Line

If you're a guitar lefty, look to a Takamine acoustic electric guitar. Left hand guitar players just can't go wrong with this model.
