Manufacturer "Takamine"
The fact that Takamine guitars probably have the best reputation of all Japanese manufacturers is not least due to international superstars such as Bruce Springsteen, the Eagles or Jon Bon Jovi, who have been playing these noble and roadworthy instruments on stages around the world for many years.
The name Takamine has meanwhile become an integral part of the ranks of upper-class western guitars, but it all began in 1959 with a small guitar shop in the shadow of Mount Takamine in central Japan. The small family business began building classical guitars and mandolins under its current name in 1962. Classical guitar maker Masse Hirade began making significant improvements in design and production methods when they joined the company in 1968, and within the next ten years helped Takamine Guitars gain an international reputation as one of the leading Far Eastern instrument manufacturers. The Hirade Takamine Series of high-quality, master-class classical guitars was later named after him.
Unlike other Asian companies, Takamine did not limit itself to copying successful ideas from Western manufacturers, but over the years has developed independent and sometimes groundbreaking concepts, such as the Cool Tube Pickup for acoustic guitars (acoustic guitars) or the use of laser technology for inlays. And bass players will also get their money's worth with the bass guitars from the Japanese manufacturer.
Takamine now produces its cheaper guitar models in China and South Korea. The legendary limited editions, which have been released annually since 1987, are still made in Japan and inspire guitarists around the world with their fantastic sound and first-class craftsmanship that made Takamine great.
