"Limited production in 1993! A rare model that marked the beginning of the Santa Fe series!"
We have received a used TAKAMINE / ESF-93 LTD93 SANTA FE 1993 in stock.

Produced in a limited run in 1993, this model epitomizes Takaminefs Santa Fe series. It features a distinctive rosette inspired by the culture of the American Southwest and striking turquoise inlays that are sure to catch your eye.

Featuring a solid cedar top and Silky Oak sides and back, this guitar delivers the soft attack and warm, rich tone characteristic of cedar. Equipped with Takaminefs proprietary Accuracoustic preamp, it is highly practical as an electro-acoustic guitar.

Regarding its condition, there are significant dents, scratches, tarnish on the metal parts, and rust; it shows signs of aging and wear commensurate with its age. A crack extending down to the wood was found at the far right edge of the top, so it has been repaired with a cleat patch at our repair center.

The neck shows some signs of twisting, but this does not currently pose a significant hindrance to playability. String action at the 12th fret measures 2.6 mm on the 6th string side and 1.6 mm on the 1st string side. The truss rod has been confirmed to turn up to 60 degrees.

Since some string muting was observed, our repair center has performed a fret leveling adjustment. While there are currently no major irregularities, the frets are generally on the low side.

Regarding the electronics, we have cleaned the preamp control section; however, noise occurs when operating the EQ selector.

The original hard case is included.

This 1993 limited-edition model marked the beginning of the Santa Fe series; it combines a distinctive design with the practicality characteristic of Takamine. As this model is now very rare on the market, we encourage anyone looking for one to take advantage of this opportunity.
