Comparison of a few Takamine guitars...

[brian_ok]

I'm selling my Ibanez artcore soon, and I'm looking to buy an acoustic electric. Due to money constraints mainly, I've decided (pretty much) to get a Takamine, because from my experience they're excellent instruments for reasonable prices.

Anyways, I went to a local guitar store and compared a few models this afternoon, and these were my observations:

EG456SC

-grand concert body, strap bolt on the body, low action, plays very well, list $699 sell price $489

EG523SC

jumbo-ish body, no strap bolt on body, higher action, list $856 sell price $599.

G "Nex" Shape (no model number??)

grand concert body, no strap bolt on body, low action, plays VERY well. list $719 sell price $502.


Anyways, after playing those and several other Takamines and Washburns, I'm pretty much decided on a Takamine with the grand concert-ish body.

Sooo...

1.) Does anyone have any experience with any of those ^^ guitars?

2.) Any recommendations, Takamine or otherwise?

Thanks a lot...~Brian

EDIT: by grand concert shape, I'm referring to the shape of Taylor x14 guitars, ie the Grand Auditorium shape.

Maybe that will help a little.
