I made this baritone guitar out of a factory refurbished Takamine
EGB255SC. Other than the word USED stamped almost imperceptibly on the back of
the headstock and the serial number changed on the inside label you would never
know it was used. I found no imperfections when I was converting it. This guitar
is one of the most beautiful and best sounding I have made to date. I can find
no specs for this exact model on the internet but I believe that it has a sold
spruce top, quilted maple back and sides, a mahogany neck, and a rosewood
finger board. The abalone inlays for the rosette and center of the back of the
guitar are gorgeous. It has a great pre-amp system – a Takamine TK-40B that
includes a built in tuner. I added chrome tuners and a bone nut and saddle. The
bass cost me a little more than most so the finished guitar costs a little
more. If it does not sell soon I will be tempted to keep it for myself. I am selling
it on eBay for $675 without a case. As of this writing I do have a case in very
good condition available for an additional $75. Sold - Thanks Maya!
