Product Rating Product Review 1st played the gn93ce about 10yrs ago and always craved one. Finally purchased and it rivals my Gibson Hummingbird, which is nearly 3x the cost! Quality is perfect from both Takamine and AMS, plus AMS financing made my life easier to make the decision to buy!!! This makes number 18 to my guitar college and hands down one of the best!

Product Review I’ve been looking to buy a new acoustic for a while now. Mostly because I couldn’t decide which one. I didn’t want to over pay for the name. Quality of most of the big names seems to be lacking lately. I’m glad i chose this one. It needed a little fine tuning but it plays and sounds great. Plug it in and it sounds even better. Definitely worth it. And the price is very reasonable.

Product Review This beautifully sounding guitar belongs right next to the top of the line Takamine's! The warmth and depth of the GN93CE is incredible. Now plug it into a PA system and what you hear is brilliance! Brilliance in sound, tone craftmanship. The neck is spot on perfect. Never falls out of tune even after a 3 hour gig. It is incredible. I can't wait to finish paying this one off because we are buying the same model in the 12 string. You will love this beauty. There is NOTHING not to like about this instrument

Product Review this has such a rich, sweet tone, that will make you ears dance. Acoustically or through an amp it sounds amazing. Takamine makes some of the best guitars in the world. Thanks AMS for awesome customer service and fast shipping.

Why I will only play Takamine

Product Review I recently bought my first Takamine. Out of the box, it was already in tune. The action and playability was incredible. I’ve been playing guitar professionally for over 30 years and I’ve owned Taylor’s, Gibsons, Martin’s, and numerous other brands. I tried to get all of his gars set up to play and be as comfortable as this new guitar was out of the box. The pickup sounds great. The packaging was perfect. I would recommend AMS and Takamine to anyone looking to own a professional playing and sounding guitar.

Product Review I absolutely love this guitar! I must say, I was a little skeptical purchasing a guitar before I played it, but I could not be more impressed. Two days after I placed my order, the guitar was on my porch. Thanks AMS! The guitar was packaged very securely. Once I pulled the guitar out of the box, I realized the pictures on the website did not do the beauty of this guitar justice. But, the sound of this guitar is even sweeter than it looks. The string action was much lower and better than I expected out of the box. This guitar is easy to play and makes a mediocre guitarist like me sound much better than I am. The onboard electronics and tuner are easy to use and definitely an added bonus. I think this guitar sounds and plays just as good, if not better, than much higher priced instruments. I would definitely recommend this guitar for beginners on up to experienced players.

Product Review Love this guitar. To me it holds its own against Martins and Taylors at twice the price. Really can’t do much better in this budget range with any other guitar. So impressed with the quality, that I’m already considering a pro Tak for my next level up guitar purchase.

This Is An INCREDIBLE Sounding Guitar For the Price!!!

Product Review Hands Down, this guitar Sounds, Looks, and Feels amazing for it’s price. I don’t think you will find a guitar like this for the price. If you have low expectations about this guitar’s sound and tone because of it’s price, you’ll be surprised. Even the electronics sound better than you would expect on a guitar of this price. I would definitely recommend this guitar if you’re looking for a guitar that meets your budget and sounds great.

Product Review Let me start by saying FedEx lost my guitar. I filed a claim with them and let AMS know of the problem. AMS contacted FedEx as well. AMS advised they would replace the guitar but after 2 weeks my guitar mysteriously showed up. I cancelled the replacement order. AMS customer service is exemplary and I will order again. Thanks guys! Now about the guitar this is a beautiful instrument. I'm a Martin owner and this guitar nicely compliments my HD28V. Whether plugged in or unplugged the sound is awesome. This guitar doesn't have that Takamine tin sound that seems common with this brand. Playability compares to higher dollar guitars. The neck is smooth and easy to play. I've gotten several compliments on the looks of this guitar. No matter what level experience you have you won't be disappointed with this guitar!

Product Review This showed up on time, packed perfectly. Thanks AMS! The guitar is absolutely gorgeous. I opened the box, and brought it to a band rehearsal, literally within 15 minutes. I plugged in, tuned it up and away I went. Action was perfect. The strings stretched a bit so tuning was often but the built in tuner was easy for my old eyes to see. Now that it’s settled a bit, it’s a joy to play. The electronics are crystal clear (even came with a battery) sounds wonderfully crisp unplugged as well. Takamine is a well respected brand and I will definitely recommend to anyone. I’m hoping this guitar lasts me for a long time! It’s heirloom material!

Best Value In It's Price Range

Product Review I've been a Taylor player for 20 years and having sold my 214dlx to my son-in-law I was looking for an acoustic/electric in a sub $1000 price range that would equal or better my experience with that guitar The GN93CE was it hands down. No contest. Aside from it's beauty and craftsmanship when amplified I much prefer the Takamine and it's TK40D preamp over the Taylor ES2 system. Better features, more presence, better over tonal balance and quite honestly it still has many of the same tonal qualities I love about Taylors. It sings with clarity and sparkle. I've owned the guitar for roughly 18 months and everything from it's tuning stability to it's intonation has remained spot on. In my opinion it is the best value you will find in it's price range and easily comparable to others costing twice as much.

Product Review This guitar is beyond my expectations. An excellent value and the 12 pay option made it an easy decision. The finish and playability of this guitar is what I would expect at a much higher price point. I have been a AMS customer for over 20 years and they never disappoint.

I'm so happy that I chose this over the other brand. The body is absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to play it everyday. You won't be disappointed!!!!!

Product Review Was looking for a quality acoustic/electric and one with the most bang for my buck. Have always been a fan of tekamine and I wasn't disappointed this time! The sound and craftsmanship is great. The only thing preventing a 5 star review is that there is a fret buz on low E bit it's easily repairable.

Product Review When looking to upgrade my acoustic arsenal of guitars I budgeted my spending range to a maximum of $1,200. I looked at and played everything from Taylor, Gibson, Yamaha, Breedlove and more. One thing that stood out with the Takamine was how easy it was to transition from playing my favorite Strats and Tele’s. The neck is amazing, the electronics package is very effective and the overall unplugged sound is loud and clear. You’d be hard pressed finding a better instrument in this price range.

Product Review Great choice at a reasonable cost....if you don't want to travel with your expensive axe, this,one will do just fine for all live shows. Takamine stills gives you attention to detail. Think I'll,keep this one around,for,a while. American Music Supply got,it,out,quick and sent one that was ready to go,out,of,the,box.....it,was even in tune....which was rediculous.
