A 12-string Jumbo Unlike Anything You've Played Before
This exquisite Takamine jumbo paints your chords and leads with exciting 12-string textures. The P6JC-12 plays with a tight tolerance for a feel that will be familiar to most 6-string players. A resonant solid spruce top with scalloped X-bracing makes your chords ring out loud and proud. You'll see premium tonewoods and appointments throughout, such as the solid flame maple back and sides and a gorgeous mother-of-pearl rosette. When you get your hand on its form-fitting asymmetrical neck profile, you'll find the P6JC-12 boasts more than great looks and tone. Built with performance in mind, the Takamine P6JC-12 jumbo acoustic-electric guitar will make you feel well equipped at any session.
Amazingly smooth-feeling asymmetrical neck profile
Takamine fitted the P6JC-12 with an asymmetrical neck profile, and we think it'll feel instantly at home in your hand. The neck is slightly thinner on the treble side and naturally fits into your hand. While everyone has a different playing preference, many guitarists at Sweetwater find Takamine's asymmetrical neck profile very comfortable to play.
Takamine's Cool Tube CTP-3 preamp system
The P6JC-12 boasts Takamine's Cool Tube CTP-3 preamp system, which runs a 12AU7 tube at low voltage to prevent it from heating up and affecting your guitar. The sound is natural and rich with exceptional dynamics. This guitar also houses a built-in chromatic tuner, a notch control, and a sweepable mid frequency to let you dial in your perfect tone. And an aux jack allows you to install an additional pickup source to be blended with Takemine's under-saddle pickup for adding even more detail and warmth to your live acoustic sound.
Takamine: a legacy of amazing quality, sound, and playability
The Takamine P6JC-12 jumbo benefits from a half century of Takamine's guitar-crafting know-how. Launched in 1962 at the foot of Japan's Takamine Mountains, Takamine's designs have been seen in the hands of some of music's biggest stars. With quality and value as their guiding principles, Takamine's instruments employ the finest tonewoods and construction techniques - something you'll discover for yourself as soon as you pick up your P6JC-12 for the first time.
