Jasmine By Takamine S34C NEX Acoustic Guitar

This guitar has become *the* guitar I recommend to students looking for a starter acoustic steel string guitar. The price has been this low for quite some time. The guitar is a full size guitar, same depth as a drednought and same width at the lower bout, but because of the NEX style body (which just basically means it has a very narrow waist like a Jumbo) it sits very low on your leg which gives it the feel of a smaller body guitar but all the desireable sound characteristics of a drednought. The cutaway is also nice, allowing better access to the higher frets. I have seen quite a few of these guitars come thru my door and they almost always need a bit of a set up (adjusting the string height etc) and a new set of strings and I always string them up with Elixir Acoustic Light Polyweb guitar strings. This brand of strings really works well with this guitar. For this plus the cost of a set up and strings, it is an excellent playing guitar for a beginner student or someone looking for a decent acoustic that wont break the bank. Of course it's not the great sound you would get from a solid top guitar but that would also run you hundreds of dollars more. Great value, good sound, certainly a guitar to consider as your first acoustic or as a value minded acoustic guitar.

Allright, I've had the guitar for a couple of months and have to join the bandwagon. It really is a good buy. I just wanted a camping/beach guitar to replace my $10 flamenco garage sale guitar whose bridge was pulling up. Right away upon receiving it I took off the silly cheapo pick guard and it looks much better. The sound is very bright, unlike other cheap guitars I've tried in local music shops. Sure the sustain leaves a bit to be desired but in general this thing sounds good, especially when strumming chords, even with the strings that came with the guitar. I did change out the strings for some extra lights since I like to bend a lot (usually play a strat) and even with extra lights the sound is sufficient. The action as delivered is as low as it can go without buzz. The bridge does seem to pull the soundboard up slightly towards the back of the guitar but I honestly am not too concerned since if I get 5 years out of this for 80 bucks I'll be happy. Hopefully I'll get a lot more. I have been playing this guitar a lot. Sound and action are what matters for me and for an inexpensive guitar this one fits the bill without any modifications needed.

Great value for the price!!! The instrument plays fantastic. Everything that came with the starter kit is perfect for a beginner. I would recommend this item to anyone. Great quality for a beginner guitar. The only thing I was upset about was that I could not get the DVD to play. But I do believe that my computer is at fault for that.

Jasmine by Takamine S35 Acoustic Guitar, Natural

First, I had NO IDEA HOW TO PLAY the guitar before I ordered this 'cheap' guitar and had it shipped to Afghanistan where I am currently stationed. It arrived FAST, which is great. It arrived in good shape, which means that the packaging is good. After I put it together (strings anyway) I busted the small string (whichever one that is). Fifteen minutes later and a little theft from a buddies string stash I had my guitar strung and tuned.
Since there are hundreds of podcasts on how to play a guitar for free and books all over this base on how to play the guitar - I am proud to say that I can now 'get by' with a a few tunes.
This guitar plays well, it is light (which I like), sounds nice (a little twangy) and is perfect for the price.
I will be leaving it here is Afghanistan when I return home, but it will continue to be enjoyed by soldiers for a long time as the quality of the manufacturing is good and sturdy.
Good buy!

I will trust the experts that this is a 5-star guitar. I just started playing. But, be warned, the action on this guitar (or at least the one I got) is very high. Apparently "action" is the term for how much pressure you must apply to the strings in order to push them down. I also bought an electric guitar, and the action on that is much lower.
A benefit of having a high action guitar is that my fingers are going to be really tough. Suggestion: practice the E chord each day until you're about to cry (which takes about 5 minutes your first day), and within about two weeks you will have developed the calluses necessary to actually play the guitar for extended periods. Tip from a friend: don't play right after a bath or shower, when your skin is weak.
