Pervade Beautifully Voiced Amazon Rosewood
The FN15AR acoustic-electric guitar represents Takamine’s dedication to quality craftsmanship, uncompromising sound, and striking appearance.

Topped off with a mahogany neck, a rosewood fingerboard, and exceptional gold hardware, FN15AR acoustic-electric is a treasure trove of exclusive sound that’s just waiting to be opened — call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer to get yours before it’s too late!
Exotic Amazon rosewood promotes exceptional clarity
Amazon rosewood is another tonewood that you don’t often hear of. This highly sought-after material is known by many worldwide luthiers for its rich and dense tone with upholding clarity. When paired with the FN15AR’s solid cedar top, you’ll experience low-end authenticity at its finest with balanced, crisp sustain on the mid and high ends. The boost in tone is further supported by X-class bracing within, ensuring ample projection and authority. If you’re looking for an acoustic that delivers a punch in any room, you’ll most certainly be happy with an FN15AR in your arsenal.
Carved for traditional comfort
Graceful looks are not all that the FN15AR's dreadnought body style has to offer. This time-trusted body style is famous for its traditional projection and comfortable curves. Paired with an authentic satin-based finish along the top, back, and sides of this acoustic, you'll receive nothing less of enhanced instrument mobility. Likewise, the onboard mahogany neck bears a low “C” neck profile and satin finish, carrying notational transitions up and down the fretboard with ease.
CTF-2N active preamp system
Onboard the FT3450BS is a brand-new CTF-2N preamp system that refines and revives the sound of Takamine’s popular early FET preamps (nicknamed “The Brownie”). The CTF-2N combines a 2-band EQ and volume sliders with a notch filter (-6dB and -12dB options), which are extremely useful for cutting out unwelcome feedback-causing frequencies that affect your tone. With a simple preamp interface and a chromatic tuner that are easy to use on the fly, the FT3450BS is a performance workhorse that’s set to steal any show visually and sonically.
