Full Description
View Full DescriptionMagical to look at, spellbinding to play
This is not just any old guitar, it's a guitar that has been meticulously crafted with incredible attention to detail. Going beyond the typical electro acoustic, the natural beauty of its tonewood build shines with a spectacular southwest Native American theme. Gracing the body top is a black crow rosette, surrounding the soundhole exquisitely. Eagle inlays then elegantly adorn the ebony fretboard, meaning you'll be granted sublime style whilst you glide effortlessly along the 21 frets.
Takamine's revolutionary NEX body shape then allows for gorgeously rich sounds as well as silk-smooth playability. From thick chords to delicate picking, you'll be able to play pretty much anything. Thanks to its scaled down size and handy cutaway, the TSF48C promises superb comfort whilst playing, letting you reach the top frets with ease and deliver a flawless performance every time.
Two timeless tonewoods
Spruce and rosewood. You can't get much better. Not only is their elegance showcased with a lustrous gloss finish, but they also have a superb, combined tone that will bring your dazzling playing to life. Used for the solid top, spruce delivers a wealth of dynamics and projects them with glistening articulation. Even with immense volume, you can count on glorious clarity to coat every note, carrying your sound in deliciously defined fashion. A good amount of spruce's beauty also lies in its versatile nature, allowing you to explore a range of styles without any hindrance.
You'll then have rosewood back and sides injecting your tone with even more shimmering brightness and deep, intense resonance. An excellent, even response across the whole frequency range is provided by rosewood, giving you the beautiful sonic balance you need to delve into various playing techniques.
Exquisite electronics
This magnificent guitar is equipped with the CTP-3 CoolTube preamp, an intuitive system that uses a tube design to process the nuances and harmonics of the guitar's natural sound. Extensive EQ controls allow you to tailor your tone with exceptional precision, whilst an integrated tuner means you'll always sound immaculate.
