Takamine jumbo, electro acoustic guitar

Looking for a jumbo model, I bought the following guitar from Bas from A'foort:

Takamine G-series EG523SC-black

The Takamine EG523SC Acoustic Electric Guitar has outstanding bright and clear sound by itself or plugged in. It features a Solid Spruce top, Block MOP and Abalone inlays, Maple back and sides, Rosewood fingerboard, and chrome tuners.
The TK-40 preamp gives you a tunable notch filter and switchable midrange contour. The notch filter allows you to dial in a setting to eliminate feedback issues. It does this by cutting out harsh frequencies that are inherent in amplified acoustics. Active electronics with onboard EQ translate all that tone into the electrical world with total fidelity. The onboard chromatic tuner is very convenient and easy to use. All together an absolutely gorgeous guitar. (Price: €260)
