They are great guitars...no doubt about it...But I have a question/Issue...the string of my guitar are a little bit high from the fretboard..and whenever I'm trying to play a solo or a chord 5th 6th etc etc most of the times my finger get stucked between the string or something like that because of that!IS THERE ANY WAY TO LOW MY STRINGS AND MAKE THEM TO BE CLOSER TO THE FRETBOARD????PLEAASEEE HEELP MEEEEE
Is ,, Tah-kuh-mee-knee '' really how you pronounce it ? It doesn't really matter, I just kinda want to know. Wouldn't it be more like ,, Tah-kuh-mean '' as it's Japanese ? In Germany in German though ( Where I'm from and what I mainly speak ) we pronounce it ,, Tah-kuh-mee-nuh '' so maybe I'm just the weird one lol
@TheEternalLeader the japanese pronunciation would be tah-kah-mee-neh. but depending on where you are you will hear it pronounced with different accents. here in the states it is typically pronounced as the guys in the video pronounced it.
Quick question, what size patch cable does a Takamine electric acoustic normaly use? I have just a standard 1/4 cable and heard sometimes acoustics use smaller (or larger) sizes. I am thinking about getting a new Takamine my self. I played one at my local C.A house and haven't been able to stop thinking about 'em!!!
I tested today two Takamine`s models EG361SC and EG260C...and don`t know which one to buy...I think both are great and have very similar sound.Can you help me to decide which one to buy.What`s strengths and weaknesses of this two models?
In case you're wondering, the song Brad plays at the beginning of the video is "Not Gonna Let My Blues Bring Me Down" by, you guessed it, Brad Davis. (Great song, btw.) I have this guitar. Great bang for the buck. Like someone said before, you can't go wrong with Takamine.
should i get this for christ mass ive got others i like but this ones at the top espically with the hard shell case on ebay !~! just wondering if there were others that are around the same price would be any better
Not all of their guitars are good. My only experience is with a Takamine Gs-330S and it sounds and plays like shit. You can see me using it on my profile.
That's not to say the one he was playing is obviously a better model...
I've just recently (last year) discover the brand and I was like "wtf is Takamine?"
I have a pretty good Ibanez (acou).. but I respect
Takamine as one of the best (with Taylor, Ovation ...)
Also classic (nylon string) is faaar better than other classic of same price range (200-500 e $).. except of course handcrafted spanish original (Ramirez etc) which are 1000+ e
I was really decided on getting the EG360SC(non black version of this guitar), but then I found the new 2009 models, the EG530DLX and EG540DLX with the solid sepele back and sepele sides.
Any info/reviews coming up on these new guitars, Chris?
I bought this model Takamine off of Sigler Music a couple of months ago. I love and I mean LOVE this guitar. The sound is incredible, and the action out of the box was light. Super nice. Electronics are great too. This is my second Takamine and I have to admit I like the tuner in the other Takamine better but this one is still great. You can't go wrong with this axe. The sound on mine has gotten a lot warmer since the first time I played it. Sharp trebles, deep basses, and LOUD. Great!
That is awesome to hear! I am glad you like the guitar. We just released a whole new series of Brad Davis demo videos.......check them out and find the THIRD Takamine you need!
I love this guitar so much and im planning on getting this baby for my next guitar. I'm just curious if there is any sort of way to get the takamine logo off the pickguard
@winterbluesunday Theres no videos of the 321c anywhere on the net apart from some 12 year old girl playing wonderwall, and the guitars out of tune....hmmmm!!??
very funny and interesting prezentation :) ... i wan't to buy takamine eg321c (same as eg320c but black) and i wan't to know if it's good and if it's worth to buy it... what's your opinion about that guitar...i want some opinions from someone who know well...please post and tell me.....thanks a lot !
After raising four kids, I assure you I have been called worse! Hey, I'm glad to offer a little comic relief for you, LOL..... Thanks for the kind words about the video, and thanks for watching.
Fantastic sound!!! Is there anyone to inform me about EG321? Is this (361) much better than 321? Does anyone own an EG321??? Please mail me for any information you may offer
You will never go wrong with Takamine. Just sold my Taylor 8 series for a Takamine, I missed them so much that I had to get her back. Bought this guitar. Again, Takamine never let me down. Consider them EVERY TIME you choose a guitar.
I really don't that that was an actual song.....Brad is careful to not play anything that is copyrighted unless it is his own music. I think it was just something that sort of sounded like a lot of classic rock.......but I will check on it and post up here if I determine that he was actually playing a certain tune. Thanks for watching!
ahh...i always wanted to own a guitar store or something like that..i mean look at that..bunch of awesome guitar to try out...

Of course you can take off the logo. It's just a protection/layer of plastic.
