Takamine Classics can be equipped with any one of 4 unique interchangeable SoundChoice preamps, which provide maximum control over any performance application. The braces are patterned and voiced for today's music. The EC132SC is equipped with the CT4B preamp, a warm-sounding 3-band graphic with an extremely stable and accurate chromatic tuner.

"A quality made instrument with a great sound!"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I hope to enjoy this instrument for a long time. I play in a Blues/R & B band and believe it or not, have found a unique place for it in the repitoire. It's a sound folks don't expect to hear and easily handles the volumes necessary when playing with other instruments.
Sound
This instrument has the classic nylon string sound with excellent reponse to all styles of playing. The 3-band EQ pre-amp projects a "real" acoustic sound and the built-in tuner is a nice touch.
Features
The built-in tuner is a useful addition when playing unplugged. The battery compartment is located right on the pre-amp making replacement a breeze.
Quality
All the woods are top notch and put together very well.
Value
All products come with a mark-up. Ultimately it's the quality of the product which makes the price alot easier to swallow. This instrument is worth the little extra when compared to its peers.
Manufacturer Support
I have not had a reason to contact the manufacturer/retailer.
The Wow Factor
As soon as I picked this instrument up I knew I wanted it. The ease of play, quality of workmanship and sound made for an easy decision. I had been using a borrowed classical which I miked with mixed results. This guitar does it all.
