5A Finger Picker's Dream  May 10, 2010 By Trick Shot
This little guitar is fantastic. I'm a professional guitar teacher, a performing artist, and a guitarist that just likes to have a little fun with what he does and the New Yorker is everything I need and more. I was going to put a grand down on a Taylor, but this one stole my heart. Beautiful tone, great playability, and it's custom made for fingerstyle enthusiasts like myself (my specialty at work, on stage, and in the studio). The back is made up of two stunning pieces of rosewood and one gorgeous piece of quilted maple. The abalone is authentic and expertly inlayed. The bindings are made of real wood instead of cheap plastic. Even higher end guitars have plastic bindings. The neck is smooth and fast and the strings respond to anything I wish to throw at them. From foggy mountain break down, to Steve Howe's Mood for a day, to more mellow pieces like Baby Mine, this guitar does it all. My only suggestion, as with all guitars that don't already have them, is to add a quality set of Grover tuners, which I will be doing shortly. Mine has an incredibly slight buzz that will be taken care of as soon as it has been set up by an expert. It's so insignificant that I'm usually the only one who notices it, even when played in front of other highly skilled musicians. For $400 the New Yorker simply cannot be beat. It's the perfect addition to any fingerstyle guitarist's collection, and at that price it would be a stellar first instrument that the owner would never grow out of.

I urge anyone who's interested to play it for themselves and make up their own mind about it. Just because it won out over a Taylor for me, doesn't mean it will for someone else.

5Exellent value, nice guitar...  Nov 30, 2011 By P. Wong
This Takamine is a really nice guitar, beautiful finish and quality with a very nice sound. I always like the smaller bodied guitars as they are more comfortable and easy to play.


5A sweet parlor guitar. . .  Nov 23, 2011 By R A A. 111 "Pastor R. A. Abernethy"
The Takamine G406S is fun to play, and a great size for throwing in the trunk or backseat for a weekend get-away. Of course since it's a parlor guitar it doesn't have anywhere near the "oomph" of a dreadnought, but its voice is charmingly sweet and mellow. Sounds nice fingerpicked or strummed. And what a beauty it is, with its wood bindings and solid three piece rosewood and quilted maple back. The price is right, too. If you're looking for a smaller guitar that doesn't cost an arm and a leg and doesn't sound like a piece of junk, the Takamine G406S could be just what you're looking for.
