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

Average Reviews:

(More customer 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.

Takamine TAN15C Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've played guitar for about 15 years now. Everything from ambient to Latin music to metal. I was in the market for a new acoustic electric 3-4 years ago when I almost jokingly tried out the Takamine TAN15C at a small music store in Arizona. I say "jokingly" because I was looking to spend about half of what the Tak's price tag said. One chord and a run up the neck was all it took to know this guitar was different. Very different. I could play smoother, faster, and with more feeling, automatically. The unplugged tone was mindblowing. Clear, percussive, and clean, but still warm. The action felt like a top-end American Strat. I tried a couple of other high-end guitars in the shop, and nothing even came close. I broke out the credit card and have been in guitar-love ever since.
I later found out that the plugged-in tone is equally amazing, thanks to the high-end electronics and CoolTube technology. To this day, the superiority of this guitar versus any other make/model is very real. Not that I've played everything out there, and I still haven't found a TAN16C to compare it with; but I can honestly say that the dozens of guitars I've tried out since buying this one (most of which cost more) fail to even come close. I've searched for months to find a worthy backup guitar for gigs and alternate tunings, and one thing seems clear: I better just pick up another TAN15C. I'm spoiled for life.

Oscar Schmidt OH30SCE Acoustic Electric Guitar, Requinto Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this Oscar Schmidt requinto about 3 months ago and I am very happy that I did. I tune the 6 th string to G and have found that satisfactory for the music I like. The high, almost mandolin sound I get from it compares to what a baby grand piano sound like next to a full sized one. The bridge on the body is very well reenforced and is shaped in a moustache configuration giving it a well made, appealing look. I very happy and satisfied with my purchase.

EF508KC NEX Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar (Koa) Review

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.

Takamine ETN10C Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar With Case, Satin T Sunburst Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was wanting to purchase a higher end guitar and after trying out several and listening to several on YouTube I decided to purchase this Takamine. I already own a Tak 12 string and thought the sound was incredible for the price. This one I didn't actually play until after it arrived but I watched Brad Davis try it out on YouTube as my guide. I have owned Ovation, Alvarez and Ibanez in the past and am more satisfied with Takamine. The guitar was set up perfect right out of the case. No blemishes or scratches anywhere and perfect action, very low set and a fast neck. The sound is incredible off amp as well as on. It has a very strong low end and mixes perfect with the the mids and highs. Great for strumming and picking. I couldn't believe how awesome this guitar sounds everytime I pick it up. I still play mostly without the amp and like classic rock, christian contemporary and ballads that use a classical style of play. This holds up with the best of them. It is a bit plain in appearance which is why I chose the Tobacco Burst; mine is a bit darker than the pic. The pic appears sort of orangey and mine is a bit more of a darker Tobacco Burst which I like. No pick guard and a satin finish not a gloss so the wood sounds are not impaired and will improve as the wood ages. These natural woods sound great. It has a solid cedar top and solid sapelli/mahogany back. I have alway had spruce or maple tops before and must admit the cedar sound is more to my preference for the lows. I paid $929 including the case through Amazon which is a deal since most everywhere else was $100 to $150 more. I got a better sounding guitar than Taylor or Martin puts out unless I wanted to go $1000 more and most all of their guitars in this price range were all laminates or occassionally a solid top but that was it. Very pleased with this purchase and is the best sounding acoustic I have owned yet....beats my former Ovation Legend and I loved that guitar.

Acoustic sound set free. The Takamine Natural Series ETN10CTBS was conceived to give you the biggest and widest acoustic sound possible. Features a solid cedar top, solid sapele back, a thin satin finish and no pickguard - anything that could possibly impede the vibration of the soundboard was purposely left out. The theory works. Naturals are so alive with sound that they nearly jump out of your hands. The clean and simple approach of the Naturals has been imitated by other makers, but nothing yet has compared to the purity of style - and sound - of the original. The Takamine ETN10CTBS is equipped with the warm-sounding CT4B preamp. The CT4B preamp features a 3-band graphic EQ with an extremely stable and accurate chromatic tuner. Great for non-standard and open tunings. Specs: Body Shape ~ Dreadnought C/A * Rosette ~ Ovangkol and Rosewood * Top ~ Solid Cedar * Inlays ~ Dots * Back ~ Solid Sapele * Sides ~ Sapele * Fingerboard ~ Rosewood * Electronics ~ CT-4B * Tuners ~ Chrome * Includes a Hardshell Case

Dean Performer Mini Jumbo Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Classic Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was looking for a good guitar in this price range and had narrowed it down between the Ibanez AEL10EBK and the Dean Performer E Acoustic Electric Guitar. They seemed pretty equivalent from their description. Originally I had decided on the Ibanez because it had an established name (I never heard of Dean) and the pickup it used was an established brand ( a Fishman Sonicore). By contrast the Dean had it's own pickup which I knew nothing about. I was about to buy the Ibanez but I wanted to hear it first. I went to a local music store and took it down to try out. To my surprise it sounded very shallow, wooden, and muddy. There was very little resonance to the instrument. It sounded almost like a solid body guitar. When you strum all the strings at the same time it sounds muddled. I plugged in the Ibanez and found it sounded the same way. It was muddled. You didn't hear the individual strings. Just an overall "blahhh". As it happens, another music store down the street had the Dean Performer E so just for kicks I went there to try it out. I was shocked by how beautiful it sounded for such an inexpensive guitar. The instrument resonated. You could hear each string brightly and clearly. When plugged into an amp the sound was bright, and full. I also found that the Dean had an "on-board" tuner with a graphic LED output that allowed you to tune the guitar instantly. This tuner is actually one of the best I have ever used. It tells you exactly when the string is in tune. It doesn't bounce around all over the place like other tuners I've used. I found from this experience that "name" isn't everything. Sometimes products from an established and well known company can under-perform newcommers. In this case that is exactly what I found. Needless to say I bought the Dean and have been very happy with it since.

Fender CJ-290 SCE Jumbo Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Natural Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently purchased the Fender® CD290SCE - Natural 6-string Jumbo Cutaway Acoustic/Electric Guitar. I received it on 19th March 2010.
I am a Jazz Guitarist and prefer to do my performances on an acoustic/electric guitar. The reason is that I prefer the natural wood sound of a guitar as opposed to an electric sound.
I have owned many expensive brand names in the Jumbo Electric/Acoustic arena. While most of them were excellent in terms of craftsmanship, I was never completely satisfied with such attributes as playability and low action. I always seem to have issues with sharp fret wires, or high fingerboard action particularly from the 5th fret upwards. More often than not I either was forced to grind down the bone saddle, do trust rod adjustments or experiment with different string gauges and sometimes have to tolerate fret buzzes. The prices of these guitars made in China ranged from US$1,000.00 to US$ 2,500.00.
I have always had great respect for Fender Company particularly with their electric guitars. However I was not very familiar with the quality of their acoustics. I decided to take a chance and buy the Fender® CD290SCE - Natural 6-string Jumbo Cutaway Acoustic/Electric Guitar purely on the good reputation Fender Company as a long standing guitar manufacturer.
It is my personal humble opinion that many high priced brand names in jumbo acoustics pale in comparison to this Fender Jumbo.
The fingerboard action and playability out of the box are second to none. The clarity and projection unplugged is superb. I have not yet played it through an amplifier. But given how it sounds unamplified is an indication how well it will sound plugged in. Although this is jumbo, the guitar is very light weight and very comfortable to hold especially for long periods. I have found no factory defects in the craftsmanship. I never thought that a solid spruce top sitting on top of a maple body could generate such robust basses , mid's and hi's
I think that this great guitar ought to be sold with a hard shell case. Mine came in a cardboard box. I have to now source a hard shell case which this fine instrument deserves.
I presently own several expensive acoustics, but I have placed this Fender® CD290SCE at the head of the class. The voices that come out of this fender jumbo acoustic are simply angelic so I have named the guitar "The Angel". My fellow guitarists' minds are totally blown away with the projection and tonal quality of this affordably priced guitar.
I highly recommend it to any professional guitarist.
Folks at Fender, I congratulate you for such a fine craftsmanship in this CD290SCE jumbo acoustic/electric.
Regards,
Stanley Ruiz, Jazz Guitarist & Educator
Trinidad & Tobago

Takamine GS330S Acoustic Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this guitar for my wife last Christmas. It's priced a little higher than the low-end guitars, but the sound and feel of it really justify the price.
I myself play the guitar and have some experience with the feel and sound of a guitar. This particular one is really smooth, easy on the fingers, and the sound is excellent. As far as tuning the guitar, it definitely tunes very well and very easily.
I highly recommend this guitar - the price may be a little steep, but if you see it on sale anywhere, go for it.

It's hard to find a classical guitar with a solid wood top (not plywood) that also has the electronics and cutaway for this price. I would recommend it to anyone.

Takamine EG523SC Jumbo Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar (Natural Finish) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The guitar is playable right out of the box. Action is high but reasonable, but the more you play it the more you like it. This is my first, and I love it. Takamine customer service (via email) is great; they would answer any question you might have. The guitar comes with DAddario EXP16 according to them. I did change them to EPX10 Extra Light Coated 8020 and it is a better player. Next will be a good setup by a professional. Get a humidifier; I got the Planet Waves Acoustic Guitar Humidifier System, plain and simple. Get a case as well, I bought the Takamine case that is very secure and keeps the guitar well. I played a Gibson similar to the Takamine, and no much difference but the price. I put both guitars thru a good amp. With no amp, I experience little difference. The guitar stays in tuned for days once the strings have stretched. The wood grain in the guitar is beautiful, it looks and sounds like a $2000 guitar. Don't let people know. Is a Korean made guitar, which tells you that is good quality. With no more to say. Get one, have fun and play it a lot.

Dean Performer Acoustic Electric Guitar Quilt Ash Gloss Natural Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This guitar is beyond good looking. I opened it, and I swear my pants got shorter, this thing has looks to spare. I can see me pulling more tail than a slow kid at a petting zoo with this beauty in my hands. The sound is underwhelming however. Open chords are weak, especially on the treble. This is probably because the top is a laminate, but I also suspect the nut has something to do with it. Dean makes some fantastic looking specimens, but looks are only half the of what makes a guitar.
Edit: After careful inspection, I found that the nut was the culprit. I took it to the shop and got the grooves re-cut and now this beast has the looks and the sound to kill. I never thought I'd find perfection in an acoustic guitar under $1000, but I believe I have. Also, I just found out it has a built in tuner. I am not going to tell you where, but just look for a switch that says tuner, and then close your jaw. I love this guitar.
