Finally an AEB I like!

snagged her at the Memorial Day sale At GC for a mere $185.00!

had to wait for her to clear the police check.....about to string her up and give her a set-up
 
Holy crap! I paid ~$350.00 for mine six years ago off the bay.
I've pulled the frets and have the string height well above 1/4' at the octave. It holds its own around a campfire with finger picking guitars.
Built like a tank too.

I like my Takamine - it's great for working out songs without an amp, and playing acoustically with friends at home and on vacation, but I'm not fond of the strings; too zingy, and lacking on bottom.

What kind of strings are you using?

If a fellow TBer has tried using a soundhole plug to eliminate feedback when playing amplified, how'd it work for you?
