Technically, you'll have to dig deeper and choose just one... :-[

Beautiful guitars! :goodtimes: (Even though I'm slightly partial to ESP...)

My precious Takamine... This one came out of the factory on a good day.
She's an absolute beaut... The favourite in my collection.
She could be leaving soon as there is a deal on the cards.
*biting my finger nails* ☹

Big-G

Quite intrigued what kind of 'deal' you have lined up that would make you consider parting ways with your favourite of the bunch?! I'll be keeping an eye out for a 'new' thread! ?

Regards
G!

She's exactly the same style Takamine, but with 12 strings ?

DaFiz

Here it is... Just arrived... Gotta get used to playing this...
It's "different"

studmissile

Looks good. Did you trade it for the 6 string Tak?

Big-G

Nice Dave. Lools great. I'd love a decent 12. Would also love a decent electric 12 too.

Enjoy.
G!

Nice! I'm looking forward to seeing a shot of this guitar in ten or so years. The good ones don't stay all pretty and new for long!

Believe it or not she's over 25 years old! 1988 MIJ, 52 reissue, but she was under a bed till I got hold of her 3 years back? I've put a few nicks and dents in her since!
