From Our Research Team:

Distinctive Acoustic with a Rare Voice

One look at the Takamine TF87-PT, and you know it's something special. And once you give it a strum, you'd be hard-pressed to go back to playing anything else. This guitar features a rare combination of tonewoods for a truly unique voice. The solid cedar top sings with warmth, while the Hawaiian Koa back and sides add a richness and a strength to its tone. This guitar loves fingerstyle players. It also loves mid-intensity strumming and will pick up every nuance of your dynamics. As a nod to its Koa's origins, the TF87-PT features a distinctive palm tree inlay on the ebony fingerboard. What's more, the unusual slothead design helps the TF87-PT stand even farther out from the crowd of acoustic guitars.
