Excellent condition with a couple small divots and the exception of a very small hairline crack in the finish. A professional luthier inspected the area and tested it with a couple drops of isopropyl alcohol; it did not wick into the line, confirming the crack is only in the finish and not in the wood. The guitar is structurally solid and unaffected in tone or playability. This deep-bodied orchestra model is a standout addition to Takamine’s TT “Thermal Top” Series. The solid spruce top is heat-treated in a carefully controlled process that caramelizes the natural sugars and resins, giving it that broken-in, vintage warmth and openness right out of the case. The result is a rich, resonant voice with impressive depth—clear, articulate highs, a warm midrange, and a full, rounded low end that feels alive under your fingers.

The solid sapele back and sides add a throaty, woody character with beautiful natural overtones, while the 12-fret neck joint enhances warmth and sustain, making every note bloom effortlessly. Whether you’re playing gentle fingerstyle passages or digging into acoustic blues, it responds with sensitivity and power. Built-in Electronics TLD-2 to amplify all that goodness to electricify your audiences.

Visually, it’s just as inspiring. The mahogany neck flows into a distinctive slotted headstock for that timeless, traditional vibe. The ebony fingerboard feels smooth and fast, accented by simple abalone dot inlays that keep the look refined and understated. A single-ring abalone rosette adds a subtle touch of class without being flashy. The wide 47.5 mm low-profile neck contour offers a comfortable, relaxed feel—perfect for intricate fingerpicking and expressive acoustic playing. A Full pricr purchase will include a Takamine hardcase.
