Description

Each year, Takamine unveils a stunning limited-edition guitar that showcases the pinnacle of the brand's craftsmanship, and the LTD2025 is no exception. This gorgeous OM cutaway model features a solid Engelmann spruce top paired with exquisite Hawaiian koa back and sides, creating a rich, dynamic tone that will only improve with age. Finished in a striking Antique Evergreen gloss, this meticulously crafted acoustic-electric exudes sophistication. Thoughtful details like an ebony fingerboard with brass circle inlays, an abalone rosette and tortoiseshell binding make the Takamine LTD2025 a collector's item that matches show-stopping looks with an absolutely enthralling sound. Available in limited quantities, this special release offers players a rare opportunity to own a true work of art.

OM Cutaway Design—Balanced Tone with Exceptional Playability

The Takamine LTD2025's OM cutaway body shape strikes the perfect balance between tonal depth, projection and player comfort. Slightly smaller than a dreadnought, it delivers a well-rounded frequency response, making it an excellent choice for both fingerstyle intricacy and powerful strumming. The cutaway design allows seamless access to the upper frets, ensuring effortless playability across the neck. Whether you're delicately plucking melodies or laying into a driving, full-bodied rhythm, this versatile body shape offers exceptional articulation and control. With its refined ergonomics and articulate resonance, the LTD2025 provides a superior playing experience for musicians seeking both comfort and uncompromising tone.

Hawaiian Koa and Engelmann Spruce for Stunning Tone

The LTD2025's exquisite pairing of Hawaiian koa and Engelmann spruce brings together two premium tonewoods for a sound that is silky smooth and remarkably resonant and powerful. Known for its striking grain and tonal complexity, Hawaiian koa delivers a vibrant top end with stunning depth, while Engelmann spruce enhances the guitar's responsiveness, allowing for a rich dynamic range and effortless articulation. This inspired combination results in a voice that is both authoritative and refined—shimmering highs, a bold yet balanced midrange and a warm, expressive resonance. It's a sound that's been carefully crafted to elevate your playing, allowing every nuance to shine through with exceptional clarity and sustain.

Premium Appointments for an Elegant Look and Feel

The Takamine LTD2025 stands out with its refined aesthetic and meticulous craftsmanship. The ebony fingerboard and bridge offer a smooth, durable surface that enhances both fretting accuracy and sustain. The brass circle inlays add a vintage-inspired touch, naturally developing a patina over time for a distinctive, aged character. An abalone rosette paired with matching abalone purfling provides a luxurious shimmer, while tortoiseshell binding adds a touch of classic elegance. Completed with the stunning Antique Evergreen finish, this exquisite guitar is not only built for performance—it's also a visually striking piece that will turn heads on stage and in any collection.

Stage-Ready Electronics and Protective Premium Case

Equipped with Takamine's legendary Palathetic pickup system and CTF-2N preamp, the LTD2025 delivers an authentic, natural amplified tone with exceptional clarity. The intuitive onboard controls provide precise tonal shaping, ensuring a well-balanced sound in any live or studio setting. Whether plugged into an acoustic amp or directly into a PA system, this guitar maintains its rich, organic resonance. To protect this extra-special collector's item, Takamine has included a premium hybrid semi-hard case, offering lightweight yet durable protection for travel and safe storage. With its high-end electronics and road-ready durability, the Takamine LTD2025 is as practical and player-ready as it is exceptional.
