The Takamine KC70 Kenny Chesney Signature Orchestra acoustic-electric guitar transports you to a tropical paradise. Designed in collaboration with country music superstar Kenny Chesney, this guitar embodies his fun-loving island lifestyle with premium tonewoods and appointments. The solid cedar top resonates with warmth and clarity, while the solid sapele back and sides add balanced low end. The satin finish enhances the wood's natural beauty.

Signature Touches From the King of the Beach

Kenny Chesney's signature adorns each guitar label, making this a collectible for any fan. Kenny's motto "Guitars, Tiki Bars and a Whole Lotta Love..." decorates the rosette, 12th fret and headstock for a fun, personal touch from the man himself. A laser-etched "Crouton lives" message on the heel cap pays homage to Kenny's dog. These custom details showcase Kenny's passion for music and the ocean.

Tonewoods That Resonate

The solid cedar top on this guitar provides a balanced, articulate tone with shimmering highs and a tight low end. The solid sapele back and sides enhance resonance and projection, allowing each strummed chord to ring out. These tonewoods are responsively voiced, capturing the nuances of your playing. Whether fingerpicking rich harmonies or flatpicking driving rhythms, this guitar's dynamic sound and sustain inspires you to keep playing.

Plug in and Perform

The Takamine CT4B-II preamp gives you total control over your amplified tone. The three-band EQ lets you shape the sound to suit any genre or venue. Volume and EQ sliders are intuitively placed for on-the-fly adjustments. A built-in chromatic tuner ensures you're always in tune when it's time to perform. The preamp's Palathetic pickup accurately captures the KC70's acoustic nuances, allowing its resonant voice to shine through when amplified. From intimate clubs to outdoor festivals, this guitar is ready to take the stage.
