I've done a few songwriter gigs in and around Nashville over the years. And, every time I play with someone with a Takamine I love the way it sounds plugged in. Plus, they have the built in tuner and pre-amp so they only have to bring the guitar. A lot can be said for that when you're in a hurry to get plugged in between rounds and get a soundcheck that consist of "turn it up and play..can you hear it..ok let's go we're behind schedule" So, what do you like about the Takamine plugged in tone and what don't you like about it. I read an article once about it that basically said Takamine does not have the "best" plugged in sound..but it's what many people "expect" an acoustic that is amplified to sound like..and that's why people like it...
