Takamine - CP-132SC - - Classical guitar - Japan - 1991

Takamine All-Solid Cedar and Rosewood Acoustic/Electric Classical Guitar, Model CP-132SC, 1991 The guitar sounds magnificent. It would be hard to find this kind of sound in a modern classical guitar in the same price range. Some signs of age, as shown in the photos. Takamine CP-132SC from August 1991: a handmade, all-solid electro-acoustic classical guitar with cutaway, made in Nakatsugawa, Gifu, Japan. It features a fine-grained Canadian cedar top, impressively figured rosewood back and sides, a one-piece mahogany neck with a slim D-shaped profile, a fine rosewood fingerboard, a 51 mm bone nut, smooth-running Takamine gold tuners with mother-of-pearl buttons, and an active Takamine Equalizer pickup system. Finished in a glossy natural high-gloss finish with lavish precious-wood ornamentation. In excellent condition and includes the original Takamine hardshell case. For decades, the traditional Japanese company Takamine has been one of the world's leading guitar makers in the acoustic and concert guitar market, offering outstanding craftsmanship at an unbeatable price. This CP-132SC is the best proof of that: true to its Japanese heritage, the instrument boasts exceptionally precise workmanship and combines meticulously selected solid tonewoods with a sophisticated pickup system to create one of the very best all-around concert guitars for the stage. It's no wonder that this model has been in production since the 1980s and is still made today in a slightly modified form! The CP-132SC features a select Canadian cedar top, which, paired with a boldly figured rosewood body, produces a richly brilliant, balanced tone with resonant bass, sparkling treble, and abundant harmonics. The hand-carved, one-piece mahogany neck feels immediately comfortable, thanks to its slim, rounded D-shaped profile. The fine rosewood fingerboard, 51 mm bone nut, and cutaway make even complex fingerings effortless up to the 19th fret. The instrument has a melodious timbre and excellent dynamic response, sounding clear, balanced, and sweet both plugged in and unplugged. Despite the cutaway, the guitar has plenty of volume, and its sustain is amazing. Its traditional construction provides a great foundation for a variety of playing techniques and styles: whether fingerpicking, classical pieces, or fingerstyle, the guitar is highly versatile and equally at home with classical, folk, and modern genres. The guitar is also equipped with the Takamine Equalizer pickup system, which delivers a clear, authentic acoustic concert-guitar sound live. Gain and 3-band EQ can be adjusted via the preamp recessed into the side of the guitar. The guitar impresses visually with its thin high-gloss finish, which beautifully accentuates the tonewood grain. Lovely details such as rosewood bindings with multi-layer purfling and shiny gold Japanese tuners with white mother-of-pearl buttons complete its refined appearance.
