It makes a very clean beginner sort of sound, perfect for those who want an easy, affordable, and reliable guitar. The guitar is not particularly suited for electric amplification, and usually works best when played acoustically. Extremely crisp live sound and does not drown out other instruments. In fact, I played an acoustic concert with one and the acoustic bass was easy to hear. Wonderful guitar.

Fairly standard equipment and parts come with the kit, it really depends on who you buy it from. All of its initioal peices are very sturdy and well built. You can tell that each Takamine was put together with care and precision.

Everthing comes in great condition. Very reliable and looks great when it arrives.

Its almost a steal at its usual price!

Never contacted the company but I am thuroughly impressed.

It may just be me, but I particularly fall for he white guitars, it came with a beautiful glossy finish and I practically drooled right there.

amazing sound for the price. nice highs. a beginner can't ask for much more.

awesome. cut-away and piezo are nice.

very nice gloss finish. there is one spot that did not get finished very well. you can't notice this because it's in the curve of the cut-away. you really can't notice it unless you squint.

I haven't plugged it in yet, but as an "acoustic" it sounds really good. I'm not even close to an expert, since I just started playing about 6 months ago, on a regular-style (not cutaway) dreadnought steel-string acoustic. To me, this guitar doesn't sound quite as "full" as the regular dreadnought, but it's so much easier to play that right now I'll take the tiny bit of lost fullness.

I'm really impressed with the features for the money -- it was the only new, name-brand acoustic-electric I found under $199, and it even came with the cable for plugging in!

For the money, the fit and finish is amazing. It's a really great-looking guitar, and it seems well-built. The back, which is dark "nato" "mahogony-type" wood, is really beautiful.

I can't believe I got this good of a guitar, new, for this money.

Fortunately I haven't needed any support yet, but I was impressed that it comes with a limited lifetime warranty (on "non-wear" items).

the sound is crappy. on mine the 6th string buzzes on the first fret making it sound liek a dying weasle

at least it has some kind of control but its just gain and tone. its better than nothing but i get a lot of different sounds coming out of my guitar when i use it electric.

everything is good but the tuning heads could be a little better

i payed about 200 for this guitar it should be about 75

i like the wood but the body looks kinda ugly
