Thread Name: Ever Played a Takamine guitar?
Subject: RE: Ever Played a Takamine
Sorry guys, should've explained better...The A/E 'flying V' of which I speak was, actually an acoustic guitar shaped like a 'flying V'. It had a soundhole in the same place as the standard acoustic guitar and the bridge was the same, too. It had a saddle/bridge pin configuration like a Martin. Was the same width as a 'dreadnaught' and the points of the 'V' were more rounded than on the elctric guitars, i.e. Gibson, B.C. Rich, Jackson, etc. It didn't have any sort of magnetic pick-up just a piezo with a 1/4" jack. I can't remember if it had volume/tone pots, but I don't think so. Anyway, I'd love to hear from anyone who's seen one of these beasts. I've played the Tak solid body elecs and find 'them' excellent value for the money as well.
