  • Multi-instrumentalist David Lindley performs music that redefines the word "eclectic." Lindley, well known for his many years as the featured accompanist with Jackson Browne, and leader of his own band El Rayo-X, has long championed the concept of world music. Lindley's recent discovery of the Takamine TF740FS fingerstyle guitar prompted a resurgence in his acoustic guitar playing that an upcoming acoustic album will attest to. Having the great David Lindley weighing in on the virtues of this Takamine model is truly an honor.

    i understand what he means ,i just got a 2002 takamine 12 string ean 40c , its so beautiful that i dont want to take it out on the road on gigs. its the sound I'd been looking for for the past 9 year i went through at least 15 guitars all 12 strings. from taks, yamaha , breedlove, taylor and ovation. But that cedar top is a whole other world.

      Yeah, ha! Grammar is all wrong, but it's like Lindley's career, playing all those bastardized instruments that shouldn't sound so damned good, but do.

    Takamine makes the most difficult model designations anywhere. This guitar is not cheap and he is looking for an acoustic to play on stage, amplified. Gibsons acoustics plugged in sound like a flock of ducks, as do many others amplified acoustics. Fishman systems just aren;t good. Baggs pickups over the soundholes are much truer. The piezo under-bridge sensors jsut don't cut it yet.

    • @celticgodsoriginal
      @celticgodsoriginal Před 7 lety

      This is also the reason Jackson Browne demanded and got a different pickup and amplification system (and sustainable tonewoods) on his artist model from Gibson, a kind of Roy Smeck re-issue.

    hey its a solid cedar top, solid mahogany back and sides :) sapele is generally only used for backs and sides i believe :)

    • @rudolph1x
      @rudolph1x Před 7 lety

      You're right he said sapele in the beginning. It is mahogany with cedar top.

    • @celticgodsoriginal
      @celticgodsoriginal Před 6 lety

      There are all-mahogany guitars. Guild's M120 is I believe all-sapele- top sides and back.

    I bought a G series because of the rave reviews. Do not do this, all Takamines' are obviously not the same. Mine sounds like a $40 piece of shit.

      @waiotahi52 Před 7 lety

      It cost half what I paid for it to get it repaired...The luthier explained the 5 reasons why it would sound like it did and repaired the 3 that were faulty.A good guitar, like my Framus, has never needed attention.

      He is what you would label as eccentric, as he said 'it must be fun". Imagine having a life of playing music with the unmost best in rock history, he kept under the radar and I bet he has a few dollars stashed away..... a life of fun with music... you would be a little strange too.
