Description

Discover the harmonious blend of craftsmanship and island spirit with the Takamine KC70, an acoustic-electric guitar designed in collaboration with country icon Kenny Chesney. This guitar encapsulates the essence of laid-back beach vibes with its solid cedar top and solid sapele back and sides, providing a warm, resonant tone that suits both strumming and intricate fingerpicking.
