This guitar features a solid cedar top for warmth and broad dynamic range and a solid rosewood back for excellent projection. Gloss natural finish provides durability and adds to the beauty of the guitar. These instruments are designed and built to stand beside the finest classical guitars made today.

The electronic performance package is beyond state of the art with the Cool Tube Preamp - the first and only tube preamp in an acoustic guitar."Takamine HIRADE TH5C crossover classical guitar, handmade in Japan in Takamine's Pro Series Shop."
A couple of small indentations on top that are too subtle to photograph and a couple of marks on end of head stock, but otherwise no issues whatsoever!
