"A Takamine case that doesn´t fit Takamine guitars..."

Feature:
Cheap appointments. No key, but a loop for a pad lock. Flimsy case.

Quality:
This case does NOT fit the G Series jumbo 12 and probably doesn´t fit the other Tak jumbos either. The case I got won´t close without pushing down and applying unhealthy pressure on the bridge (and, of course, this puts pressure on the sound board). There´s no doubt your sound board will crack if you try to close it and latch it. In any event it´s a rather poorly made Canadian case that´s not worth the money. Now I still need to find a decent case for my Tak...

Value:
Not for a $100. The case, even if it did fit the Tak jumbos, is worth, maybe, $49.

Support:
I have contacted Takamine about this case (because it is a poor fit for its guitars), but have yet to receive a reply. Obviously, the specs didn´t translate well with the Canadian company that makes the case.
