Namm 2024: Takamine presents its 2024 limited edition guitar!
What a pleasure it is to discover Takamine's limited edition at the start of each year. For 2024, the Japanese firm offers us a stellar voyage with a guitar under the sign of space and the influence of the stars.
The inspiration for this new limited edition is the year 2024 itself, as it represents a leap year that corresponds to the four-yearly calibration of our human calendar with the solar system.
Specifications
The 8 planets of our solar system are represented on the fretboard along with our Earth and its orbit around the sun. The sun itself is represented on the 12th fret, and its light, the source of energy for our solar system, is represented by pale shades projected onto the body and head of the guitar.
The work of Japanese instrument makers
The bracing on this NEX pan coupe is individually selected and tuned by Takamine master luthiers. The black carbon bridge was chosen to blend perfectly with the original texture of the cosmic ensemble, but also for its unique ability to transmit sound as effectively as a bone bridge.
Built for the stage
To guarantee warm, balanced tones faithfully reproduced on stage, the new CTF-2N preamp has been selected to celebrate a return to the FET technology of the legendary Brownie preamp. The warm, natural sound of the CTF-2N preamp, combined with the famous Palathetic pick-up, make the LTD 2024 one of the best Takamines for the stage.
