Awesome

Needed a 12 string for some projects. I did a fair amount research, and in this price range chose to go with this Takamine. Acoustically it shimmers when you need it to and can fill a room with sound. The deal sealer for me was the electroinics which include EQ and tuner. The fit and finish is spectacular! I got it last week and haven't been able to put it down yet! No fret read more sprout, very good tuners, straight neck with the slightest bit of relief, required no adjustment or setup. Plays up and down the neck like butter, no fret buzz. I highly recommend this box.

Best 12 String Under $1000

This guitar is amazing. I have had it for over 6 months. It looks good, feels good and sounds phenomenal. Best 12 string under $1000.

Good Job Takamine

This is everything a 12 should be. It stays in tune really well and sounds amazing. It projects, shimmers, and the playability is on par with 2000$ price tag guitars.

Very Nice guitar

James Pebworth

I have to say that this is a very nice guitar. The finish on it, clear coat, is the first one I've experienced that has a smooth glass like finish. Usually, the neck has some friction to it. This one, your hand just glides across the neck. The body has a nice feel to it. A good tone thus far. The shipping on it, was perfect. I bought a guitar elsewhere that the packing was like read more a milk carton. The packaging here was filled with a foam like substance that it kept it from moving. It arrived without any damage at all. Home run on this won.

One of the best twelve strings I have ever played. Compared with Taylor and Martin, just as great at a fraction of the cost! Cannot say enough about this guitar. Takamine really got this one right.

I see why so many touring pros play Takamine

Straight out of the case, it's a stunning guitar to look at. The fit and finish is exceptional, and I spent quite a while looking for flaws, and didn't find any. The playability is great, even for a 12 string. The fretboard has a clean look without all the fret markers, and the side dots are more than enough landmarks to know where you're at. No dead spots on the neck, the frets read more were dressed nicely with no sprouting. And then there's that tone. 12 strings have a certain magic to them, and this one sounds on par with guitars costing several times more money.( Guild, Martin, Taylor). Acoustically this thing is a canon! It fills up a room with sound. Plugged in, the preamp gives nice eq and notch abilities, and the on board tuner is a godsend on a 12. If I have one nitpicky complaint, it's that the tuner being high on th upper bout makes it a little awkward to see while standing and playing/tuning. No such issues sitting down, for me at least.

Top notch 12 string for the price

I've played multiple 12 string guitars in my 30 years of playing, and this one simply blew me away. I actually sold an Ovation Double neck and bought this in its place, and I'm grateful that I did. The tone, build quality, looks, electronics, this guitar has it all. Got a great deal on a hardshell case from my Sweetwater rep, as well. I highly recommend this beauty, hands down the read more nicest acoustic I've ever owned

Great guitar...

I've been playing this 12 string for just over 2 weeks now, here's my take. Great sounding 12 string. Top shelf overall build quality. My primary concern buying online was the tone, if it was going to be full enough. Out of the box, this guitar delivers the goods. The tone was what I was hoping for. Fat, thick tone, nice highs, full lows. Neck - easy to play The only thing preventing read more 5 stars are the tuners. Though they do the job, they're just short of the overall excellent quality of the guitar itself. I'm a Schaller guy, I'll probably change them at some point. Other than that, right out of the box this guitar was good to go. Recommend highly.. John R Age: 59

Marty Potts

Absolutely one of the best 12 string guitars right out of the box!!! This beauty plays more like the ones for over $1,000.00!! This is my 8th 12 string, and will be one of my favorites for sure. Great low action and a terrific sound!! Takamine hit one out of the park on this one!!
