Members yjsays Posted June 13, 2006 Members Posted June 13, 2006 Going to trade in a 12-string takamine for a 6-string... anyone know if there are other guitars for cheap that are simliar lookin to http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Takamine-EG540C-NEX-Cutaway-AcousticElectric-Guitar?sku=516424 or any recomendations?
Members DonK Posted June 13, 2006 Members Posted June 13, 2006 If it's primarily the look you're after, you could check out something from Dean, like one of these: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Dean-Performer-E-AcousticElectric-Guitar?sku=519820 I've never played a Dean so I can't speak for quality or playability, but it strikes me you're going to take a bath on that trade at GC. You could probably buy the Dean and keep your Tak 12 and come out better than you will on a trade at GC. But again, that's only if it's the look that you're most interested in. Tak's are nice guitars, don't know if Dean's measure up in comparison.

Members yjsays Posted June 13, 2006 Author Members Posted June 13, 2006 Originally posted by DonK I can respect that! yeah, basicly they look cool, but sound terrable. That takamine isn't worth the price tag due to the electronics they put into it, if they took them out, and made it cheaper, it would be good.
Members dangerine49 Posted June 14, 2006 Members Posted June 14, 2006 I would recommend not trading in anything at GC cause you're gonna get robbed. Keep the 12 string and get a Seagull 6 string. Best value in a lower end acoustic.
Members Tony Burns Posted June 14, 2006 Members Posted June 14, 2006 Im not a fan of GC either, figure out what you want and go to another store- ( there good to see guitars thou )
Members Hudman Posted June 14, 2006 Members Posted June 14, 2006 Sell it on Ebay. GC will screw you on a trade in.
