    I have this beautiful guitar and not only is the figured Koa incredible but I really love the sound. It isn't a big boomy sound like a dreadnaught guitar but more of a sparkle sound almost like a 12 string. It has that bright quality about it. The fit and finish could not be any better and is certainly spot on. Little things like the quality headstock with a koa face and the inlayed Takamine name. Flawless ebony embraces the fretboard making a smooth playing surface. It feels as smooth as my Fender American Stratocaster with the maple fretboard.

    This guitar has exactly the sound I was looking for. My only complaint is the strings are a bit high and I prefer a lower action. I did have my guitar plek'ed before delivery and now I am wondering if that process shaved a little too much from the frets? I am not sure that is possible.

    If you are thinking about this guitar I would recommend that you pull the trigger before Koa wood gets priced out of sight.
