| | | Subject: | Amazing Guitar | | Quality:
| Extremely well made, and extremely dependable. | | Sound:
| Tone is really really great, I'd say its the best, except for higher end guitars like Martin, or some Gibson, or Taylor, but for the price you pay, your definitely getting more than your moneys worth | | Reliability:
| oh man, iv'e had this guitar since 2001, its now 2010, and i swear it only sounds better, haha, iv'e played it everywhere from concerts, to coffee shops, to the beach, to the MTs, and still sounds amazing when i plug it in, or by itself | | Overall:
| Overall an amazing sounding guitar, with a fast neck, great tone, and sounds great plugged in too | | Playability and Feel:
| I absolutely love the feel of this guitar, of course if you play an electric the body is bigger (duh) but for an acoustic, i'd say it's the best, with a low rise, and no buzz even high on the fret, and a super fast neck, you'd swear it was a fender strat ;) | | Tone:
| Kind of a combo between bright and snappy on the higher strings.. and dark and smooth on the bass strings... just great, the pickups reflected the true sound of the guitar | | Finish:
| the paint looks amazing, especially for being black. | | Action:
| Action is Amazing ;) | | Skill Level:

| | | Subject: | My favorite acoustic brand!!! | | Quality:
| I consider this to be great quality and would recommend one to anyone looking for a new acoustic electric or just an acoustic period. | | Sound:
| Great. No other words can sum it up. | | Reliability:
| Took one just like it from the U.S. all the way to Iraq for 5 months and back and it never lost tone or luster. Im sure this one will perform just as well. | | Overall:
| I have had 3 acoustic guitars counting this one in my 16 years of playing. All have been a form of takamine with my first being a jasmine. I have never had any regrets or negative views of these guitars and the G series is just great. Its affordable, has good electronics, and the sound is perfect to me. It does well for recording, live, and just playing around for yourself. It is so good that when i was put in to decide what to get as far as an acoustic guitar for the chapel i was working in when i was deployed in Iraq, I chose two Takamine G series guitars with no hesitation. | | Playability and Feel:
| I primarily play electric so getting use to a wider body is always a challenge but it feels great and the neck is smooth and fast and easy to play. | | Tone:
| Great tone. Full bodied and loud. | | Finish:
| I really do not like black paint jobs because of how they show dirt and sweat and stuff from your arms when you play plus they show smudging easier but the neck and binding and everything is definitely good. | | Action:
| Only problem i had is that one of the strings were weak when i tuned it up causing it to break but other than that it is great. | | Skill Level:
