Dreamy, heavenly, crystal-clear sound
It's a diamond-quality voice. And it can only be produced by cedar. That's why Takamine have crafted the EF341SC with a solid cedar top, exuding tones that make fingerstyle techniques sing. You can count on rich overtones and delicious clarity, divine sonic character and beautiful resonance - they all flow from cedar in pristine, nuanced style. This tonewood might not focus on volume, but the dynamics offered by the dreadnought shape and maple back and sides make up for it. Not to mention, cedar's sublime, detailed articulation is beyond anything of other tonewoods.
Maple back and sides then balance out the sound of this dazzling acoustic perfectly, enriching it with brightness and volume. Glistening clarity and a gorgeously tight tone are produced by maple, whilst minimal feedback ensures that only immaculate acoustic goodness is heard. What's more, maple's quick note decay and astounding articulation separate the notes of even the thickest of chords, so you can count on supreme definition, whatever you play.
Dazzling dreadnought shape
Delve into a rich, classic dreadnought voice. It has stood the test of time and is still the go-to for many guitarists today. With this Takamine wonder, you'll immediately come to see why the dreadnought is so cherished, and you'll be promised the depth and richness that comes with it. Explore a resonant low range and top end shimmer, immerse yourself in incredible tonal versatility, and experience the kind of wondrous dynamics that go hand in hand with the detailed, articulate tone of cedar.
Built for mesmerising performances
This striking acoustic is equipped with CT4B II electronics, a system that is used on Takamine's premium instruments to provide glistening amplification. Sculpt your sound via the 3-band EQ and achieve a wonderfully unique tone that is perfectly shaped to your taste, none of the beautiful sonic qualities of cedar and maple will be compromised. And to ensure every note is immaculate, there is a handy tuner installed on the preamp.
Understated beauty
Takamine's acoustics need no fancy embellishments. Such quality craftsmanship is evident all on its own, and this gem of a dreadnought is no different. An eye catching black, high gloss finish coats the guitar, giving it an overall striking aesthetic that puts a spin on the timeless beauty of cedar and maple. It's magical, and it teams beautifully with the dark tone of cedar. A simple yet elegant soundhole rosette then adorns the top, whilst a sleek pickguard blends seamlessly into the endearing, black backdrop. Dazzling details are also found in the form of minimalist dot inlays, white binding, and chrome tuners, all demonstrating Takamine's finesse and guitar-making expertise.
