Yeah I love Taks and own one but this limited edition model has never impressed me. That whole design on the soundhole and all, just not all that catchy.

that is not a snake, it is a Dragon rapped around a Tiger.

Personaly, I think it's a kewl design. It's very artistic. I bet it was hand painted, too. Take a stab, see what it gives you.

So if its a dragon where are the wings and stuff. Its definatly a snake rapped around a tiger. But im not going to argue about something as dum as a design on a shitty looking guitar.

A+ for creativity
D+ for finished product.

If your name is Jewel, then that is the guitar for you, otherwise, look at a different tak.

The dragon does have a wing, it is blue. It's right before you see the white underbelly of the dragon.
