Takamine is very proud to introduce the EF250TK Toby Keith Signature model,designed in cooperation with the top-selling country superstar and crafted to his exacting specs. Based on his longtime workhorse acoustic,the Takamine TF250SMCSB,it features a full-sounding jumbo body with a convenient cutaway,solid spruce top with scalloped “X” bracing,and beautiful flame maple back and sides. In Keith’s own personal touch,the EF250TK also features his signature on the heel cap and his silhouette image on a special headstock medallion.

The fingerboard and pickguard are artfully adorned with delicate imagery of the flower called RENGE-SO which symbolizes the Gigu Prefecture in Central Japan. This flower grows at the foot of the Takamine mountain,which provided the original inspiration for our Takamine Guitar name and has long served as its ancestral home. The graceful RENGE-SO adorns this elegantly appointed instrument with the spirit of Takamine and its Japanese homeland.

Other premium features include a mahogany neck,20-fret ebony fingerboard with abalone/mother-of-pearl inlays and bone nut,gold tuners and hardware,and elegant gloss Sunburst neck and body finish. The rosewood bridge has a split bone saddle for accurate intonation,and its pin-less design makes string changes a breeze.

For peerless amplified performance,the EF250TK is equipped with Takamine’s proprietary CT4B II preamp system paired with the unique Palathetic™ under-saddle pickup for peerless amplified response. The highly acclaimed CT4B II preamp system with three-band EQ,volume control and built-in tuner. Deluxe hard-shell case included.
