For a beginner, I would recommend a guitar without electronics. for the same price you will get a better guitar. Also think about used guitars. A used Seagull S6 w/o electronics is about half the price of the one you mentioned. You can find a really good deal in the used market. I have not tried the Tak, so can't help you there, but the S6 is a truly a great guitar. And you'll probably get a lot of other suggestions such as a Yamaha FG730s. Also an awesome guitar and there is one for sale in the classified (not mine). Good Luck.
