Great sounding and easy playing 12 string. It's flamed maple sides and back give it great crisp tones, and is definitely eye candy. The spruce top aids in the tone, and the jumbo body provides great projection. The maple (NOT mahogany) neck gives this 12 string acoustic much needed strength for the higher string tension requirement of a 12 string. By carefully removing the split saddles and removing the shim(s) beneath the piezoelectric pickups, comfortable string height can be achieved. Each saddle has 2 shims. The long saddle shims are of different thicknesses. I exchanged the D'Addario EXP38's (.010 to .047) factory wire for a D'Addario EJ41 .009 to .045 set as a matter of personal taste. It holds tune very well. I definitely recommend this. Some have given less-than-stellar reviews, but I've found over time those types will bitch about anything, or don't know what they're talking about to begin with. I've been playing for 62 years, both professionally and privately, and own a myriad of high-quality guitars, including a Rickenbacker 360/12. I can't give this Takamine enough praise as a 12 string acoustic.Read full review

Amount spent more than reasonable. Easy play,handsome guitar,above average sound. Electronics are even very nice. A lot of saddle pickups are 'tinny' but this you can tweak out on onboard system. Actually 4.5 out of 5.

The playability of this guitar is as beautiful as it looks! The action is perfect, the volume, sustain, tonal quality and construction match or exceed many guitars that I have played in 50+ years that are far more expensive.I'm very happy to add this one to my collection!
