Takamine made great advancements with their palethetic pickup, and set the standard for the industry. Other manufacturers soon offered acoustic/electric models, but none has reached the level of sophistication and performance set by Takamine. Our Takamine pickup is like no other. It's an integral part of the guitar's design, not a retrofit like most other ""factory"" systems. Six individual piezo transducers are embedded in the bridge plate where they sense both string and soundboard vibration. Takamine also pioneered the slider control preamp style for the acoustic/electric guitar. No other guitar company had the technological advancements that Takamine set in place, and to this day no other guitar company can achieve that level of quality in the market.

Takamine has made technological advancements that have surpassed other guitar makers. Takamine prides itself in their dedication and loyalty to fine luthiership and it is shown through each Instrument the company makes.  Takamine had its early beginnings while guitar playing and music was gaining popularity in Japan during the early 60's. As their business grew they saw the need to develop their skills and attract design and manufacturing talent. One of the most important additions to the company was one Mr. Mass Hirade.

The factory began producing their world class ""Classical"" that to this day still carry the Hirade name.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love The Boom'in Tak
*by K***P on March 7, 2012*

First off, I ordered The guitar on a Saturday night it showed up on my door step Thursday morning, delivery was to be between 5-14 days. It is very important to understand, Guitars are sensitive to drying conditions, must be kept in a sweet humidity range, frets will pop, warping and other tell-tail signs of drying were not apparent. I opened the box, tuned her and she's stayed in tune since. She's a boomer, sorry neighbors (without plugging in), all the tonal qualities you'd ask for in a higher priced guitar, plus the beauty, I might need to take her in for fine tuning, finding where I need my action but that's with any new guitar, but it's working well so far, bending notes just great no flat spots. Out of the Box no imperfections, no defects, not even a finger print, still in the factory wrapping. Making cords and notes are a dream, with no flat spots, D'Addario EXP strings and sounds great Amp'd (played w/ the Eq. but not the notch filter). Other reviews compare this guitar to a Gibson, Taylor and even the Martin, yes it is as great sounding I've played on some of those before choosing the Takamine, but more important is the shipping and handling. I purchased the Takamine G series Jumbo from Amazon vender FretWorld, and they must store things properly, showing great service and product knowledge! They were not the least expensive but a great price non the less (About $480 for a guitar that lists at about $1000) but bottom line, the guitar arrived in great shape and that's what you want in a mail order/online shopping experience. (I'd give FretWorld 5 Star +) I have read other guitar reviews where the vendors have not stored properly and the reviewers had to do major repairs to get the guitar's playable, something to consider with a vendor, cheep for a reason, a non-humidity controlled warehouse in Arizona not a good place for an instrument.

### ⭐⭐⭐ a beauty but.....
*by F***G on February 14, 2013*

Beautiful looking guitar, came strung with D'Addario strings but I find them to be very thin sounding and tinny.Action is great, but it is not playable "right out of the box", The 5th string buzzes on 3rd fret and up, so I will need to bring it in and SPEND MONEY to have it professionally adjusted. I'm hoping with some different strings it won't sound so "bright"Sounds a lot better amplified. If I had the $$ I would have bought a Taylor or Martin.I might amend this review once I've fixed the above issues.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice Inexpensive Guitar
*by B***H on April 25, 2015*

Just bought one the other day. Sounds great & very nice looking, but like most economically priced guitars, it needed some help, called a "SETUP" by most techs(I have 3 Epiphone's; a Special, Les Paul PRO, & a Sheraton 2 & they all needed the same Setup). I.E.: Straighten neck, file frets(7 high & rattling), remove/adjust shimming for bridge to get the strings low enough to play comfortably. The biggest complaint I read, & found it to be true with mine, is the bridge & mine was totally FUBAR & took a lot of time, by a very good tech, to fix it. Also have 1 string that the pickup seems weak on. I have a '87 E Series Contemporary Srat & a 80 Guild D40C which are great, & have owned many Gibson's. This is a very nice inexpensive guitar that I haven't been able to put down, since I got home with it..
