"ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!"

Feature:
The pre-amp that comes on this thing is my favorite accessorie.It completely alows you to recreate the guitars natural sound through your amp or PA.

Quality:
It's a Takamine! With the proper care this beutiful guitar can Easily stay beutiful and last you a lifetime. EVEN FOR ON THE ROAD USE!!!

Value:
I think we are all just ripping Tkamine off by allowing them to continue to sell THIS guitar at THIS price,but hey folks take advantage of it before they get smart!lol

Desirability:
This guitar may not be the most beutiful thing in the world,although the rosette is very cool,It definetly makes up for it in sound and technicality.

Sound:
The sound of this guitar is absolutely amazing considering the price,hey,it sounds great without considering the price.It has that nice timbery sound that all takamine guitars come standard with and that extra edge that just cuts through the airwaves with each note.

Ease of Use:
The action on this guitar is awesome, it plays as if it were an electric guitar.

Overall:
This is the only acoustic guitar that anyone should ever need!

Feature:
the tuner... well worth it.

Quality:
Time will tell, but on reputation alone, takamine has got my vote.

Value:
so many 1000$ guitars sound only as good as this one.

Desirability:
nothing standout, but the sound. Didn't know it was a beauty contest though.

Sound:
awesome

Support:
we'll see, but why kill the streak of 10's

Overall:
If music is your game, this guitar is... well it's not lame? I don't know. It's one I'll have for life.
