  • Best acoustic for a beginner
Color: Natural Style: Guitar
First let me start off by saying that I'm an absolute beginner. Until recently I hadn't even touched a guitar, much less played one. I always wanted to learn guitar but for some reason or other never got around to it. Now, in my early 30s I decided to finally take the steps to learn. I figured that by the time I retire in another 30 or so years I should be pretty good at it. Initially I wanted an electric guitar but everything under $400 inevitably had some negative reviews. I also borrowed an old electric from a friend and used it for a while. I learned some of the main chords but during this time I was reading reviews and looking for a guitar to call my own. It's a good thing I started learning on an electric, because it made me realize that what I actually needed was an acoustic guitar. The advantages of an acoustic over an electric: - much lighter - no cables - no amp - much cheaper - less things to fiddle around with - more "natural" sound, whatever that means The advantages of an electric over an acoustic: - smaller footprint - can produce a variety of different sounds To me the disadvantages of an electric far outweighed the advantages. Acoustic guitar it was then. Searching the web I found my way quickly to the Jasmine S35 by Takamine. Reviews almost universally praised it. Furthermore, at $75 it was also incredibly inexpensive. I actually bought mine for $73 at the time. I went to Guitar Center to try one out and possibly buy. They, of course, didn't have it. The nearest one in stock was in another store 600 miles away. So I ordered mine from Amazon. I was a bit afraid that it would be damaged during shipping but it arrived in perfect condition, despite Amazon's shoddy packaging. I fell in love with the Jasmine the moment I opened the box. It's an amazing looking instrument and the matte finish only improves the look. I love the new guitar smell which is evident even a few weeks later. Be aware that the strings are loose when you unpack it so you will definitely need to tune it before playing, but that's a given in any case. The strings themselves may be the weak point but I'm not an expert so don't take my word for it. One or two of them seem to have a small amounnt of rust but they work well, nonetheless. In any case, I also bought some Ernie Ball strings as replacement for the future. The neck feels perfect and because it has a satin (matte) finish, my hand doesn't sweat on it, instead gliding easily in any position. The action is higher than on the electric but what do you expect? You'll get used to it soon. The tuning keys are chrome-plated and feel very nice. The only negative, but not enough to subtract a star, is the fact that the Jasmine only has 1 strap peg. You will either need a special acoustic guitar strap or do what I did and adapt a strap (see below). Here are the other accessories I bought along with the guitar: Tuner Korg GA-40 Large Display Guitar and Bass Tuner This tuner works really well and it also has input/output for an electric so it should be future-proof. Picks Planet Waves Assorted Pearl Celluloid Guitar Picks, 10 pack, Medium It seems that everyone buys (and likes) these picks. They work well for me. Stand Musician's Gear Tubular Guitar Stand Black Awesome stand. Cheap but very sturdy and it even has a security rubber band that prevents the guitar from falling over. Strap Protec Guitar Strap with Leather Ends and Pick Pocket, Black Everyone's favorite. It's a very sturdy nylon strap but unfortunately it needs an adaptation to work with the Jasmine. This is simply a piece of sturdy string tied to one end of the strap, forming a loop that goes under the strings, right above the nut. You can also buy a special attachment that does this but my adaptation was free. String winding/cutting tool Planet Waves Pro Winder String Winder and Cutter I haven't used this one yet but it feels sturdy. ... show more

  • Exactly what I expected; a bargain.
Color: Natural Style: Guitar
They don't make cheap guitars like they used to; thank god! (On mine), no defects or shotty workmanship; the neck is as straight as an arrow. The sound is more bold than bright; this is a taste feature. Rich tones that you can feel, as well as hear, as you play it. Great guitar for beginners, a practice instrument, entertainment as you travel and I wouldn't hesitate to it play for an audience. The neck has a silky smooth feel and the action is quick and clean; no buzzing or off-tone frets. I would have chosen a richer color, but this was the color that was on sale. Every guitar is a little different, so I cannot assure anyone that they will have the same experience with their Jasmine S35 Acoustic Guitar; but if you don't, send it back. Great bang for the buck. ... show more

  • READ Before you write another bad review!
Color: Natural Style: Guitar
I want to start by saying that most of the very few negative reviews on here are because these individuals do not know how to set up a guitar, or know that most new guitars need to be set up in the first place. I think it may be done to save labor, but the truss rod is often not tightened, and the saddle is too high. This guitar also has the capability to sound like a $400 guitar, but this will cost 20 in extra parts. A TUSQ saddle and a new set of strings. I prefer medium-light for these lesser expensive guys, if the action is set correctly, it will be easy to play and sound beautiful. These are not necessary, but for all the reviewers who say this doesn't sound as good as some of the nice ones, put the new saddle on and the new strings, set the action, torque the truss rod, and you have yourself a wonderful sounding guitar. Regardless of your experience with guitars, an easy test to see if this guitar needs to be set up is to stick a quarter under the 12th fret. If it has room on top of it before it touches the string, it will need to be set up. Proceed to step 1, if the quarter fits just perfectly with no room, congrats, you got lucky, you are ready to play. 1.) If you are new to guitar, I would highly recommend taking it to a guitar shop and having them set your action. This will usually cost 20-30 bucks but will make this guitar play really nicely, and your progression as a guitarist will be effortless instead of very difficult. I dont recommend spending the extra money on a new saddle or new strings for a beginner. To them, this thing will sound full bodied as it is, and you can switch out the saddle and the strings in 6 months or a year when you replace the strings anyway. If you are not new, or new but handy with little repairs and such, go on you-tube and type in "how to set up your new guitar" A great video of how to set it up. For anyone experienced with guitars, the sound quality will be pretty good stock, but to make it resonate and sound full bodied and amazing (like a true solid spruce top guitar) change out the saddle for a TUSQ or something equivalent and buy some Ernie ball Earthwood medium light 80/20 strings. Together they run $20 and once your action is set correctly and your truss tightened perfectly this thing will sound like a $400 takamine, No joke. I keep referring to the action, this is the amount of space between the frets and the strings, it is the most crucial part of setting up a new guitar and will make ease of playing, sound quality and the whole experience fantastic. The way to decrease action is to loosen the strings enough to pull the saddle out and sand it down 1/32 - 1/8th inch depending on how much is needed. This process takes less than 10 minutes yet many players don't know how, or don't know that this is an option. Many reviewers on here say that the "action is too high" which it may be, but it is VERY easy to fix, and makes or breaks any inexpensive guitar. Please don't listen to the bad reviews from the individuals that have not yet set up their action correctly, this is a takamine (Taak-ah-mani)which is a fantastic brand that makes fantastic quality guitars, do not be fooled by the price tag. This is a beauty, and is simple but perfect for any person with a spare 100 bucks. And honestly, I would not buy any guitar upgrade until you could afford a Seagull s6 (roughly $400) as the seagull will play like a $1,200 guitar. DO NOT waste your money on any other cheap guitar out there, and remember... when you buy a new guitar, it needs to be set up! You now know more than 90% of the people out there, so the next time you hear someone saying "the action is way too high" or "This cheap guitar doesn't have sustain" or "this doesn't sound full bodied like the nice ones." Just smile and know that all they need is to buy a new saddle, some new strings, and adjust the action (all less than 20 bucks if you do the work yourself). I have seen friends buy $1000 guitars and never sand the saddle down, it makes me sad. I know this is long guys, but thank you for reading, I highly recommend this guy, and I highly recommend the seagull s6 as the next guitar upgrade. Have fun playing! ... show more
