Open Box Takamine Pro Series 3 Orchestra Model Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar Level 1 Natural


Description
Other premium features include a solid sapele back, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard with wood œdot-in-dot inlays, gold tuners with amber buttons, natural satin finish and the highly acclaimed CT4B II preamp system with three-band EQ, volume control and built-in tuner.
CT4B II Preamp Features
The CT4B II preamp is designed for ease of use and purity of tone. The CT4B II consists of 3 bands of graphic EQ tone control, a volume control slider and a built-in chromatic tuner.
The 3 band EQ provides control over the bass (LOW), midrange (MID) and treble (HIGH) frequency response. With the sliders set at the midpoint (0) the electric signal from the guitar is evenly balanced across the frequency range. The desired tone is then dialed in by using the sliders to add or subtract frequency response as desired. Each frequency control slider will raise or lower the band response by +/-5db.

Quality sound and looks

The pro series 3 orchestra model, like the New Yorker model, is a beautiful acoustic/electric instrument in looks and workmanship, with a rich, resonant, balanced tone for finger-picking or rhythm playing. Amplified they just get even better. Takamine makes great guitars. They hold their tuning, unlike other guitars. My GN20 Takamine acoustic is also a beauty in looks and tone. Very much like a baby jumbo, it delivers a rich, full toned accompaniment sound when rhythm playing for the singer. Having started with an Ovation background owning several vintage models, Takamine later became my go-to guitar choice for tone quality, and for the pinless bridge and split saddle.

In my opinion as a 40yr player, do not buy this if you want it for acoustic use. It is very mid range. Plugged in it is nice for soft styles with the right eq. The build quality is great. Had to have the nut lowered and the saddles raised for optimal playing, low action, 3/32 at 12th fret. I will say at this price range, much better than any tayor or martin in this body style.
