Guest jeff, I also have a Takamine "Logo" which has done 30 years hard slog in a ceilidh band and is still going strong - it's easier to play than many 6 string guitars, as some of my students have been amazed to find out. It's in standard with light Elixir strings. Terrific plugged in.
I also have a (we think) 1960's Harmony 12, tuned a full tone down as it has no truss rod - the neck is chunky but very playable and it sounds great.
