It's hard to beat a good Takamine.
I have other acoustics that sound better to me these days, but the thing that sets the Tak apart, you can put any tuning on it that you want and it will still play like butter. Other guitars don't respond nearly as well. I would like to know what the secret is about that.

Taks are simply overbuilt. Every element of the guitar is slightly thicker - the soundboard, the sides and back, the neck and especially the fingerboard, even the polyester finish. One may say doesn't that stifle tone and resonance? Not really, if you designed the thicker parts to sound and resonate good from the onset.
A THICKER, HARD slab of rosewood or ebony does wonders for adding resilience to a neck in regard to different string gauges and tunings.
