TAKAMINE TNV360S
A simple page and a great visitor ! The Takamine TNV360s Coll tube guitar This guitar puts all other guitars to shame. The sound is to die for. From treble to bass, absolutely no muddyness at all. So very well-balanced with a full and wide range eq control This now 2500 dollars guitar is dancing with the perfect companion the Baggs M1 micro that is passive as it did not need the pre-amp build in.Notice i found the best placement for my sound and bass resonance at the middle of the wood table

MERCEDES music Christian MAERTEN   Recorded with the TNV360S Takamine
Bought this guitar in a small music shop in Malaga Spain It ages like a good wine On the electronic side it was always a little struggle to find the right setting with the saddles on the bridge because i play with a lot of different tuning and therefore various tension and saddles pressure occur I did find out that in order to low down to zero the ground noise  the addition of a copper paper roll around the sadlle was making the contact piezo to strings Its now really zero noise free and a must with the blend for the 2 micro system build in this guitar Yes guys this is a guitar for life made in Japan

The DAION NASHVILLE 1979
The BAGGS is now connected with the guitar strap pin .I think if i need a Baggs in other guitar I will buy it again. By the way this is the BAGGS M1 I have a preference for this passive model. Honestly i already spend too much time of my life recharging battery s ! You dont think so ?
Something magic with this guitar crafted in Japan in 1978.In the video i played live with 3 Baggs flying pickup that render the actual sound of this very light weignt guitar Since then the guitar have been adapted to Nashville setting for 5 or 6 new tracks using strings made by VULCAN The guitar is un changed from 78 it have the original brass sillet top and bridge .No cracks or damage and the wood smell still preserved in the case. Later will posted one more video 28.11.2023
In Benajarafe near Malaga SPAIN around 2010. I have this guitar for a long time and will probably die and go with it in my grave. I am a long time fan of Daion and played lots of concerts with the Daion model parlor 000 .Saddly once i run out of cash and sold it to a English guy that apparently is still happy with it ! You bet !
This wood mandarine colour is very attractive.I must say that for a 1978 guitar the glue used is top quality .I had a Martin 000 and was not so lucky with the glue used so Japan stcks better
