"You MUST OWN this Guitar"
Feature:Takamine did their homework on this one, all materials and components compliment each other. Good job guy's.
Quality:
This is a Very Well Made guitar and you can do gig after gig with the confidence that you won't need a back up.
Value:
Well worth the money, I may buy another one.
Desirability:
The MOP and the Abalone, along with the great finish , reall makes this thing stand out under the stage lighting
Sound:
I have owned this baby for going on 2 years, and I am amazed each time I Pick it up and play. I have been playing for 35 years and I have a lot of musician friends that own some of those other guitars costing from $1500.00 to $2500.00 range and this thing has better tonal quality and action than my friends does. Acoustically it is great, plug it in and wow, you can get so versatile. It inspired me to play music that I ordinarily would not play. Vocally this thing is great to sing with!
Ease of Use:
I have mine set up with low action and the playability is effortless. I own 6 other guitars and one of the others is another Takamine G series that is more expensive and this one beats them all, but it sounds great with the harmony it rings out.
Support:
Everything else is top notch so I figure the Support would be as well. I have never had to call support
Overall:
I expect that I will enjoy this guitar for many more years to come. It will be worn out before it gets retired. If something happened to it today I would replace it with another like it tomorrow. This guitar exceeded all my expectations.

"My Baby. Take it from a guitar lover."
Feature:Love the built-in tuner.
Quality:
Strong guitar. Sturdy to the core.
Value:
Worth every penny
Desirability:
You can't take your hands off of it once it gets in your lap.
Sound:
Full - Booming Sound!

I haven't had to call them.
Overall:
I don't think I'll ever get rid of it. I'll wear it like a cowboys wears his hat. Like a father cares for his little girl, you can't just trade it in. You can only have more babys, But you'll always have the oldest.

"This is one you have to try!!!"
Feature:Did not get a manual on the pre-amp.The store that I bought it from said they will order one for me.
Quality:
Very well made.
Value:
This guitar is by far worth more than I paid for it. And I bought it new!
Desirability:
This is one beautiful giutar! And the workmanship is great. Lots of oooh's and ahhhh's when I first played it in front of an audience.
Sound:
Sound is full and throaty for a 12 string. Most sound tinny when you plug them into a full sound system. This one sounds awesome!
Support:
Have not needed to contact the factory
Overall:
Have no desire to look for another guitar. This one does it all for me.
