Description
This "unplugged" thing wasn't any big news to you. You've been slinging an acoustic axe for years. Or maybe you're a hotshot electric player who needs something organic for a change. It doesn't matter. You want tone, playability, workmanship, and distinctiveness. We could steer you in a bunch of different directions for each of those qualities. But to hit the home run and cover all of those bases, you've got to talk Tacoma.
As for the C1C Chief, Tacoma has put years and brains into a bracing system that, when combined with the unique bridge, gives you remarkable bass and treble response and awesome sustain. The C1C Chief responds to every playing nuance from the merest brush to a windmill strum with a powerful, distinctive tone. The satin-finished, solid Mahogany back, Mahogany sides, and solid Cedar top add to the vibrant feel. Easy access to the Rosewood fingerboard is provided by the single cutaway design. Gotoh tuners keep the strings in harmony, and the Graphtech nut and saddle help to keep those strings from breaking. Like we said, it's a pro's dream.
And you won't look like every other player, either. The C1C Chief has a distinctive, curvy soundhole that is located on the upper bout of the guitar top. The Tacoma engineers found that that is the perfect place for it. We just think that it looks cool. So will you.
High-end instruments cost a little bit more, but the reward comes every time you strap the axe on. The true measure of value is when the amount of pleasure you receive from an item makes you forget the amount you paid for it. We think the C1C Chief fits that bill admirably.

Tacoma C1C Chief Acoustic Guitar, Cutaway with Hardshell Case (Natural Satin) Reviews
10 out of 10
"A great acoustic with a killer vibe!"
Feature:
Elixir strings (they really make any guitar sound better) but love the Nano Web light strings (.012-.053) High Quality Turners (make a huge difference) High Quality Bridge and Nut. Came with a Hard Shell case (always nice) Excellent Choice Solid Woods (the solid cedar top is sweet)
Quality:
It's made by Tocoma, that should say it all if you know your guitars. Every thing about it is world class. A very well design, well equiped mechanically in every way, beautiful cosmetics, just a fine, high end instrument.
Value:
It's an excellent value.. fine instruments are worth every penny. Face it a cheap guitar is a cheap guitar no matter how you look at it or play it.
Desirability:
I WANTED IT AND NOW HAVE IT...! A fine instrument is a practical addition for any guitar slinger.. but this guitar does have a special and cool vibe to it. You really have to see it, feel it amd play it to really appreciate it.
Sound:
For a smaller, shallower body then I am use to playing, this guitar sounds amazing, strong bass and clear crips mids n' highs! Really does sounds as good as my bigger body acoustics ( also way more comfortable to play, greats a great size body, love it)! Excellent design, top workmanship and high quality wood makes the difference! It's a top notch high-end instrument at a very good price. Sounds great unplug'ed or plug'ed into my trusty fender acoustic amp
Support:
I have had no dealing with this company directly! But knowing their fine name and rep I would think they would stand behind their product. I would think and hope most high end mfgs would!
Overall:
This guitar sounds so great and is so comfortable to play I think it will stay in the life-time collection. It's just want I have been waiting in a guitar. Traded in a Martin for it. It was a great soudning guitar but was uncomfortable to play sitting down for long periods of time. The guitar was kinda deep (great sound design) but you really had to reach over the top of it when playing seated, totally bugs my shoulder. The Tacoma is a shallow, smaller body which is sweet. The only reason I would replace this axe is if it got stolen or eaten by a shark. Yes I would go out and buy another one! This guitar is all pros.. no cons!
