Takamine

Takamine is a Japanese guitar brand founded in 1962, known particularly for acoustic and electro-acoustic guitars. Its range includes steel-string acoustics, classical guitars and acoustic bass guitars, alongside onboard preamps and guitar strings. Amplified acoustic performance is a longstanding focus of the brand, with pickup and preamp systems integrated into many of its instruments.

Takamine spans accessible and higher-priced parts of the acoustic guitar market. MyGear currently lists 77 products in stock at partner retailers, with prices from €49 to €2,235 across instruments and accessories. This range encompasses lower-cost accessories as well as guitars intended for developing players and professional use; it is not solely a guitar price range.

Models listed on MyGear illustrate the variety of Takamine’s body styles and formats, including the GN51CE NEX, GF30CE FXC, GY93E New Yorker and GX11ME Taka-Mini travel guitar. The catalogue also includes the EF360GF Glenn Frey signature electro-acoustic and the CT4B-II active preamp, reflecting the brand’s established emphasis on stage-ready acoustic instruments and onboard electronics.
