P3NY : Simply the best! Small body big sound!

4 years ago

Got Takamine P3NY a months ago. The Taka is amazing and comfy instrument to play! If I decide to buy another acoustic I would go with Takamine made in Japan again and again!

- factory setup is good. However, string action is a bit too high;

- Made in Japan. I like it!

- Japanese Taka’s quality control is very high level. Respect!

- comfy neck and body shape. The neck is close to Gibson’s slim taper. However, Taka’s neck is asymmetrical, so nice!

- small body but BIG SOUND!

- it sounds amazing on its own and plugged in too;

- very comfortable body shape. It is a good choice for electric guitar players. It is an easy playing instrument;

- on board preamp is high level. Tuner is good. Easy to replace a 9V battery;

- case is weak side of Taka.

I was choosing between P3NY and CP3NYK. Decided to go with P3NY due to 14th fret joint and more narrow neck (electric guitars players will find it comfy). Good instrument for strumming and fingerstyle. Amazing quality to price ratio. I strongly recommend P3NY!

P.s. additional note after 7 months of playing it. Would be nice to have rolled edges on the neck.
