General

The Takamine EH5C Hirade is a classic electro-acoustic guitar with nylon strings, built in Japan by master craftsmen with an eye for detail. This guitar is made from carefully selected solid woods, including cedar for the top and rosewood for the back, sides and fingerboard. This results in a warm, full sound with rich projection and an expressive dynamic range. The instrument not only feels luxurious but also sounds extremely refined, making it suitable for both solo playing and accompaniment.

EH5C Hirade for live and studio use

For amplified performances or studio recordings, the EH5C is equipped with the Takamine CT-4DX Cool Tube preamp system. The built-in 12AU7 tube lets you add an extra dimension to your sound, with a warm, tube-like tone that can be mixed with the original signal as desired. The controls are intuitive and offer comprehensive control over your sound. In addition, the guitar features a jack for an additional microphone, which further increases flexibility and gives you complete freedom to shape your own sound.

Takamine EH5C Gloss Natural electric-acoustic classical guitar with soft case

Wrote the following about Takamine EH5C Gloss Natural electric-acoustic classical guitar with soft case
De Takamine EH5C is één van de beste klassieke gitaren op de markt, en ook wereldwijd, en dit voor alle doeleinden, zowel voor op het podium als voor kleine of grote gitaarshows, de gitaar werkt perfect met andere muziekinstallaties door de ingebouwde super elektronica CT-4Bii. Perfect om ook te bespelen zonder versterking en zonder effecten. De geproduceerde tonen blijven betoveren. De natuurlijke klank geeft gegarandeerd een hoge superieure krachtige kwaliteit die nog hoger staat dan de kwaliteit van de Cordoa GK pro negra. Elke toon is uiterst zuiver en rond. Elke geplukte nooit geeft een groot volume. Zeer geprononceerde projectie; perfecte balans tussen lage, hoge en middentonen over de gehele speelarm. Deze gitaar is een Japans meesterwerk.De gitaar geeft zuivere ver reikende akkoorden. De akkoorden zijn mooi, rond en krachtig. Dus ook voor het spelen van alleen ritme is deze gitaar buitengewoon. De kwaliteit overtreft zeer vele andere merken die volledig in massief hout zijn gemaakt. De EH5C werd ook qua toon vergeleken met een professionele yamaha GC-3 - ook bij deze overtreft de EH5C werkelijk alles . Wil je een gitaar die werkelijk alle situaties aankan, zowel voor studiewerk, studio opname werk, life performances en het spelen met andere akoestische instrumenten of alleen solo, dan heeft de TAKAMINE EH5C alles waarvan een gitarist kan dromen. Het instrument heeft alle professionele kwaliteiten. Deze gitaar is de gitaar die ANDRES SEGOVIA HAD MOETEN HEBBEN IN ZIJN TIJD VOOR ZIJN SOLO CONCERTEN; Door de Cutaway op de gitaar kan je alle hogere tonen moeiteloos bereiken Bovendien is de EH5C uiterst sterk en robuurst gemaakt en is ze tegelijkertijd licht in gewicht. De gitaar ligt uiterst comfortable in de handen.Elk geplukte nooit is volledig zuiver en brilliant en de balans tussen alle snaren en tusen de midden, de lage en hoge tonen is volledig in balans. Kortom, deze gitaar is een groot meesterwerk gebouwd door Japanse professionele Luthiers. Een gitaar met een zeer lage aktie, zero buzz, gemaakt tot in de uiterste perfectie en precisie. De prijs is superlaag vergeleken met vele andere gitaren die tot het dubbele kunnen kosten en nog steeds niet de kwaliteit van de TAKAMINE EH5C bereiken. Voor de liefhebbers is er geen enkele reden om ook maar één ogenblik te twijferen over de aankoop van zulk een meesterwerk.
