Don’t sniff at their products and say that imports are junk, because they build some fantastic acoustic and acoustic-electric steel string guitars.
They have started building guitars in other countries, but all of their high-end guitars still come from the land of the rising sun. Takamine is a Japanese guitar maker that has been in business for over 50 years now. Over the years I have owned and played plenty of Japanese-made Takamine acoustic guitars and have found nothing to gripe about with their craftsmanship, playability or tone.
