Here for sale we have a Takamine EG10c Electro-Acoustic guitar in Satin Natural finish. Made in Taiwan in 2003, this guitar features a Solid Cedar top, Solid Sapele back, Laminated Sapele sides and Mahogany neck topped with 21 fret Rosewood fingerboard. This guitar features a Takamine N4B Preamp System with onboard controls on the shoulder of the guitar.
The Satin finished Mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand, with a profile resembling a soft ‘V’ that flattens into a thin ‘C’ at the 12th fret providing a thick enough hold to inspire confidence and feel dependable without being cumbersome. The Rosewood fingerboard feels pleasant to the touch and the 16" radius feeling consistent making fretting a breezy and sumptuous affair in any register. The Dreadnought body size feels great in both seated and standing positions, whilst the single-cutaway offers extended reach to the higher frets.
This instrument voice is warm and detailed, with the solid Sapele back producing a loud and responsive midrange. The Solid Cedar top provides a balanced tone with plenty of low end power and warm detail. The understated high end of this guitar remains detailed but subtle, adding unique character to this guitar, making this guitar perfect for singer songwriter styles of playing. The Takamine N4B Preamp System accurately captures the voice of the instrument, adding versatility for both live and recording situations.
