The nut width on this guitar is 1.75", which is not as common as the 1 11/16th that all other guitar manufacturers seem to produce. The Jasmine acoustic guitar (whether dreadnaught or cut away, sans pickup) is still the best value for the money for an entry level guitar. I purchased the sunburst model to gift to someone, and it performed, like others, so excellent for the money that I wanted one of my own. Whether it's the bracing or the nut width (I lean towards the playability of the 1.75" nut width), the Jasmine acoustic guitar is by far still one of the best starter guitars/beater guitars around. As they age they sound better, and if you should choose to upgrade the tuners, even more so. I donate to charitable causes when I can, and this guitar is a go-to for quality as a kick a$$ donation item. It is NOT in the realm of Esteban or others; it by far exceeds them, and they seem to hold up over time. When you combine the 1.75" nut width with quality bracing, you end up with a great sounding guitar. If one learns on this model and wants more capability, then of course move to a Martin (Mexico or USA made), or Taylor (Mexico or USA made), or Breedlove (unsure of origin, so play before purchase; USA models are AWESOME), or other where budget permits. But for the money, you can't beat the sweetness of the tone with this brand. I've purchased the dreadnaught in plain spruce many times, and now recently a burst finish, along with the cutaway in spruce (many times over), and they all were consistent. I've personally owned and donated about 15 of these guitars, as they are solid performers. They were sound choices for gifting to someone a tool that enabled personal expression and personal enablement, at a level that was of quality, and not just something mass produced. The guitar market of 2024 has so many samples to pick from, and guitars with pickups are not always ideal. The thought process behind buying a guitar should start with something like "I want to create", and that doesn't mean an electric pickup. When the power is off, and the phone is off, the mind is better tuned in to finding that 'inner something'. Does this guitar help that out? Yes, without a doubt. If you can develop your chops, of course a higher end guitar will offer a smoother neck, solid footing with fretting, and a better tone or sustain. But for the money? OMG, what if Jasmine was around during the time of Woodstock? They would have sold out for months. Start out basic, and this guitar is probably the best value for starting out basic., Even with a few Taylor and Martin's in my collection now, there will always be a Jasmine. Seriously. Unless the production mix changes (please don't change!!!), this is by far a great ROI for the purchase.

Obviously I don't have a ton of experience or knowledge about guitars and what they should sound like. For the inexperienced novice who wants to try out guitar, though, I've got a lot to say. First off, this price can't be beat anywhere, especially since they normally tack on so much for shipping. Secondly, it's pure luck when you get it, but that has nothing to do with the guitar. The packaging was solid and I didn't feel that anybody had sat on my box, kicked it, or thrown it around. It came in a huge box and then in a smaller, triangular shaped box for the guitar. Due to the shipping, of course, the strings were horribly out of tune so if you don't know a darn thing about guitars and tuning or music, just buy a guitar tuner, I recommend the Korg CA-30 or anything similar. You play a string and the red lights will tell you if it's sharp or flat, green is in tune. Also, learn that the thickest string is E, then A, D, G, B, with E being the thinnest. Now for the guitar itself. I don't know if anyone else mentioned this but there's only one button at the bottom of the guitar for a strap. There's also no strap included and I think you have to either install another button yourself or tie it to the neck underneath the strings. I don't know yet, but that is a small drawback. However, since you can play without a strap, I didn't take off points for it. Second, that horrendous sticker needs to go and it's easy to peel off. I found that there was a teeny-tiny layer beneath it of clear plastic so I pulled that off too. The sound is great, takes awhile to get used to how hard you have to press so there's no buzzing noise (I think that's called action and people have commented that it's high on this guitar). But I figure if you get used to high action, other guitars will be easier and it's not a big deal. Either way, if you're playing guitar for the first time your fingertips will hurt, right? I love the guitar for the price and the sound, it really makes me happy to play it every time. No picks, but I never wanted one, I love just using my fingers. There's no case, either, but a good hard case will run you almost as much as the guitar itself. If you're planning on flying with it, I'd say get a soft case and carry it on and hope they can stow it in a closet somewhere. Here's what it boils down to: if you've got $100 and you want to learn to play the guitar, this is your chance. My friend who plays guitar just as casually as I do (although for much longer) bought his first Takamine for $400. I'm not going to put out an album or write my own stuff so I wouldn't be able to tell the difference in sound even if there was one. It's a great great starter guitar, I love it a lot and I've already banged it quite a few times and it still sounds fantastic. I was on the fence about it, took a risk since there were a lot of 5 stars and I wasn't disappointed. If you're on the fence, then hop on over to this side, this guitar is great!

I want to start by saying that most of the very few negative reviews on here are because these individuals do not know how to set up a guitar, or know that most new guitars need to be set up in the first place. I think it may be done to save labor, but the truss rod is often not tightened, and the saddle is too high. This guitar also has the capability to sound like a $400 guitar, but this will cost 20 in extra parts. A TUSQ saddle and a new set of strings. I prefer medium-light for these lesser expensive guys, if the action is set correctly, it will be easy to play and sound beautiful. These are not necessary, but for all the reviewers who say this doesn't sound as good as some of the nice ones, put the new saddle on and the new strings, set the action, torque the truss rod, and you have yourself a wonderful sounding guitar. Regardless of your experience with guitars, an easy test to see if this guitar needs to be set up is to stick a quarter under the 12th fret. If it has room on top of it before it touches the string, it will need to be set up. Proceed to step 1, if the quarter fits just perfectly with no room, congrats, you got lucky, you are ready to play. 1.) If you are new to guitar, I would highly recommend taking it to a guitar shop and having them set your action. This will usually cost 20-30 bucks but will make this guitar play really nicely, and your progression as a guitarist will be effortless instead of very difficult. I dont recommend spending the extra money on a new saddle or new strings for a beginner. To them, this thing will sound full bodied as it is, and you can switch out the saddle and the strings in 6 months or a year when you replace the strings anyway. If you are not new, or new but handy with little repairs and such, go on you-tube and type in "how to set up your new guitar" A great video of how to set it up. For anyone experienced with guitars, the sound quality will be pretty good stock, but to make it resonate and sound full bodied and amazing (like a true solid spruce top guitar) change out the saddle for a TUSQ or something equivalent and buy some Ernie ball Earthwood medium light 80/20 strings. Together they run $20 and once your action is set correctly and your truss tightened perfectly this thing will sound like a $400 takamine, No joke. I keep referring to the action, this is the amount of space between the frets and the strings, it is the most crucial part of setting up a new guitar and will make ease of playing, sound quality and the whole experience fantastic. The way to decrease action is to loosen the strings enough to pull the saddle out and sand it down 1/32 - 1/8th inch depending on how much is needed. This process takes less than 10 minutes yet many players don't know how, or don't know that this is an option. Many reviewers on here say that the "action is too high" which it may be, but it is VERY easy to fix, and makes or breaks any inexpensive guitar. Please don't listen to the bad reviews from the individuals that have not yet set up their action correctly, this is a takamine (Taak-ah-mani)which is a fantastic brand that makes fantastic quality guitars, do not be fooled by the price tag. This is a beauty, and is simple but perfect for any person with a spare 100 bucks. And honestly, I would not buy any guitar upgrade until you could afford a Seagull s6 (roughly $400) as the seagull will play like a $1,200 guitar. DO NOT waste your money on any other cheap guitar out there, and remember... when you buy a new guitar, it needs to be set up! You now know more than 90% of the people out there, so the next time you hear someone saying "the action is way too high" or "This cheap guitar doesn't have sustain" or "this doesn't sound full bodied like the nice ones." Just smile and know that all they need is to buy a new saddle, some new strings, and adjust the action (all less than 20 bucks if you do the work yourself). I have seen friends buy $1000 guitars and never sand the saddle down, it makes me sad. I know this is long guys, but thank you for reading, I highly recommend this guy, and I highly recommend the seagull s6 as the next guitar upgrade. Have fun playing!

I just got my guitar today and it came packaged ok. Really big box with another smaller guitar shaped box and some paper stuffing inside. Inside the box was the guitar and the strings were wrapped nicely (although loose and out of tune which is fine). The guitar seems a little on the small side for a dreadnought. Seemed to be in new condition. You could smell the glue inside the guitar which some people hate and some people love (kind of like how some people love or hate the new car / shoe smell). I am going to assume it will go away in a few weeks. It felt nice to touch. Very fresh/woody if that makes any sense. It wasn't glossy. I was going to buy this guitar or the Seagull S6 Original Acoustic Guitar. I actually couldn't find the Jasmine in any guitar store. When I played the Seagull S6 at a store it was really mellow and nice to play. The Jasmine comparatively is very "bright and twangy". It might be the strings (which by the way were brand new, some reviews say they are corroded so I guess it depends on your luck. I still bought another set of strings with my order just in case). If you've never played a nice guitar then this guitar is fine. I suppose its somewhat like the difference between a Les Paul and Strat. Except in this case the Jasmine (Strat) sound, felt a little cheap. Which it is. All in all I bought this guitar over the Seagull because I wasn't sure how serious I would get into guitar and opted for the cheaper option. It still sounds great for how much it cost and I am pretty happy with my purchase (just slightly regretful and how it sounds in comparison to the $400 Seagull). Negative: The ONE real problem I had with the guitar is that there is a decent amount of buzzing if you pluck/play hard enough. If you're jamming with chords it wouldn't be a problem, but I'm learning to play fingerpick style so it is a little annoying. Again for the price it is the perfect beginner guitar. You can use it as a spare guitar once you grow out of it (aka. get really good and love to play) and buy a nicer one. UPDATE 9/15: Hmm after putting on new strings and letting them age a little I think the guitar sounds really nice. A friend I know happens to have the same guitar but with the action really high. I guess it is luck of the draw as to how well your guitar is set up. I'm happy with my purchase. The glue smell is also mostly gone after about 2-3 weeks.

I got this delivered October 20,2017. today is 3/22/2018. out of the box, the finish was nice and uniform. Looking inside the sound hole, you could see everything such as braces and all had been put together professionally, no rough or jagged edges, no extra glue squeezed out from under braces, this guitar was very well built. The tuners are "ok" as some are tighter than others, the strings provided were not that bad, not my preference, but very serviceable. I play every single day and have played for over 20 years, and they lasted me a very long time. As with any guitar, I took the time to adjust the neck, the saddle and checked for proper intonation. The nut and saddle are made from plastic, which you should expect on an "entry" level guitar for under $100. The bridge pins are also cheap plastic. Like i said, for an "entry" level guitar, it has more advantages than not. Since I have had this guitar, I knew I would replace the plastic parts with quality pieces if it stood up to my use. This guitar has done that and very well I must say. I busk alot, but never in weather that would do harm to the guitar and the Jasmine S35 has hung in there like a champ. By saving so much money and it being worth it in my opinion, I have replaced the plastic nut saddle and bridge pins with Brass pins and Bone saddle and nut that was purchased from kmise-us, and their products are a wonderful addition to this guitar. Immediately after doing so, I have noticed the tone of this guitar soften and warm up considerably. The guitar was already great for what it was but now with better quality components, it is just getting better and better. I personally use Ernie Ball Regular Slinky .42-.10 gauge strings and I think I might go a little bit thicker but that is a maybe. With replacing the plastic parts, this guitar has elevated itself considerably. For those of you buying this to learn or as a gift to a beginner, do not hesitate, this is a wonderful guitar to learn on, however as I said i have been playing for over 20 years. If you take the time to have it set up out of the box you will enjoy this beast way more than if you leave it alone. By saving money on this guitar. it is easy for me to justify spending extra to get better parts. The plastic nut that was on it was being cut by the tuning of the strings and HAD to be replaced anyway, so if you are just starting out, keep that in mind. I plan on purchasing Grover tuners to replace the ones that are on there now, and again, the money saved by this guitar being priced where it is makes these purchases to me to be of no consequence. I have to repeat here, if you are a beginner or purchasing this for a beginner, please, have the action set up before going too far with it as this will help learning and hand and finger strain. Out of the box, this guitar will provide you with the tool you need to learn and grow as a musician, but in my opinion, if you want to enhance the quality of this guitar, replace the plastic pieces with those of quality of your choosing.

The Background: I am a professional singer and musician who has been at it for decades. I've played Taylors and Martins, but prefer a nice Breedlove because their tone seems to sit right in the middle between Taylor's cut-through-the-mix bite and Martin's perfect-tone-for-blend smoothness. I bought this as a gift for my daughter for Christmas. I would have loved to have had $500+ to spend on a starter guitar for her, but we simply didn't have it. I did a lot of research on sub $200 guitars and came across this instrument. I was a bit surprised by the rave reviews and have to admit that I had high hopes because of them. However, as a musician who has seen his share of bad, cheap instruments, I was fairly certain I was going to be disappointed. After all, $70 for an acoustic instrument is...well...ridiculous. Again, I was hoping against hope that it would be as good as the reviews said, but I was more than ready for and expecting things like sketchy construction, uneven fret spacing, substantial fret buzz, poor tone, and more. In short, I was more than pleasantly surprised! The Good: I pulled it out of the under-whelming packaging and was instantly taken by the look of the guitar. It's beautiful. Don't get me wrong - it's not a $700+ instrument, but I've seen plenty of $400-$500 starter guitars that didn't look nearly as nice. Love the satin finish. Because of the reviews I'd read, I was ready for rusted strings and praying it didn't have any damage due to the poor packaging. I'd purchased some nice D'Addario strings to put on it and was fully ready to go through a lengthy set-up process to get it playable as some reviewers suggested. However, the strings were in perfect condition and, when I tuned her up, the guitar had nearly perfect set-up and sounded pretty stinkin' amazing out of the box! I'll still take it in after Christmas to have it fully set up by a pro, but out of the box this things was extremely playable with a very respectable tone. As for tuning, the frets are nearly perfect. My first guitar was a much more expensive Epiphone that sounded great open on the lower frets, but lost tonality quickly as you moved up the neck, especially under capo. Not this little gem. She sounds great all the way up the neck. The neck is narrow and very playable, the frets are smooth with no jagged edges, and the size of the instrument just feels right. The guitar itself is not huge, but it's also not tiny like a travel guitar. Again, it just feels really nice to play. The Bad: There's not a lot at this point, really. If this were a $500+ instrument, I'd have some things to say here, but even if it was in the $300-$400 range, I'd have to be fairly picky to write much in this column. The only thing that even crosses my mind is a some concerns for longevity. For instance, the tuners are functional, but you can tell that they are entry-level. They tune just fine and hold tune surprisingly well (again, better than my Epiphone did), but will they last? Only time will tell. Worst case scenario, though, is that they tank and I spend $20-$25 to put some nicer tuners on it. Even if that were to happen, I'd still be in this thing for a ridiculously low price! That almost moves this "bad" possibility into the plus column, in my opinion. Here is my only real concern for this guitar - it's light. I mean, really light. So much so that it almost feels fragile (it doesn't feel fragile, but it's close). My Epiphone was a tank, and I never had to worry about hurting it with the normal bumps and bangs that often come with a first guitar. This guitar, however, is just the opposite. My daughter is very good at taking care of her things, so I'm not too concerned about it because of that. However, if I were getting it for my son who is notorious for destroying everything, I'm not sure it would make it to 2019. Again, only time will tell how this guitar holds up. I'll try to keep this updated as time goes on. The Wrap: BUY IT! It's $70, and I'd be shocked if you could find something of this quality for anywhere near this price point. If you are in the market for a sub $350 guitar, don't spend a penny more than the $70 it costs for this gem. To do so would just not make sense. Even if you had to replace the tuners, strings, and get a better nut, bridge, and pegs right out of the box, you'd STILL be in this for less than $150. You'd also have an even BETTER sounding guitar. In my opinion, the only reason to spend $350-$400 on a different guitar is NOT to get better tone or playability (I doubt you'll find it, honestly), but because you will have instruments in that range that are sturdier and that have solid tops/backs, etc. But, again, this is only SEVENTY BUCKS! What do you have to lose?

First let me start off by saying that I'm an absolute beginner. Until recently I hadn't even touched a guitar, much less played one. I always wanted to learn guitar but for some reason or other never got around to it. Now, in my early 30s I decided to finally take the steps to learn. I figured that by the time I retire in another 30 or so years I should be pretty good at it. Initially I wanted an electric guitar but everything under $400 inevitably had some negative reviews. I also borrowed an old electric from a friend and used it for a while. I learned some of the main chords but during this time I was reading reviews and looking for a guitar to call my own. It's a good thing I started learning on an electric, because it made me realize that what I actually needed was an acoustic guitar. The advantages of an acoustic over an electric: - much lighter - no cables - no amp - much cheaper - less things to fiddle around with - more "natural" sound, whatever that means The advantages of an electric over an acoustic: - smaller footprint - can produce a variety of different sounds To me the disadvantages of an electric far outweighed the advantages. Acoustic guitar it was then. Searching the web I found my way quickly to the Jasmine S35 by Takamine. Reviews almost universally praised it. Furthermore, at $75 it was also incredibly inexpensive. I actually bought mine for $73 at the time. I went to Guitar Center to try one out and possibly buy. They, of course, didn't have it. The nearest one in stock was in another store 600 miles away. So I ordered mine from Amazon. I was a bit afraid that it would be damaged during shipping but it arrived in perfect condition, despite Amazon's shoddy packaging. I fell in love with the Jasmine the moment I opened the box. It's an amazing looking instrument and the matte finish only improves the look. I love the new guitar smell which is evident even a few weeks later. Be aware that the strings are loose when you unpack it so you will definitely need to tune it before playing, but that's a given in any case. The strings themselves may be the weak point but I'm not an expert so don't take my word for it. One or two of them seem to have a small amounnt of rust but they work well, nonetheless. In any case, I also bought some Ernie Ball strings as replacement for the future. The neck feels perfect and because it has a satin (matte) finish, my hand doesn't sweat on it, instead gliding easily in any position. The action is higher than on the electric but what do you expect? You'll get used to it soon. The tuning keys are chrome-plated and feel very nice. The only negative, but not enough to subtract a star, is the fact that the Jasmine only has 1 strap peg. You will either need a special acoustic guitar strap or do what I did and adapt a strap (see below). Here are the other accessories I bought along with the guitar: Tuner Korg GA-40 Large Display Guitar and Bass Tuner This tuner works really well and it also has input/output for an electric so it should be future-proof. Picks Planet Waves Assorted Pearl Celluloid Guitar Picks, 10 pack, Medium It seems that everyone buys (and likes) these picks. They work well for me. Stand Musician's Gear Tubular Guitar Stand Black Awesome stand. Cheap but very sturdy and it even has a security rubber band that prevents the guitar from falling over. Strap Protec Guitar Strap with Leather Ends and Pick Pocket, Black Everyone's favorite. It's a very sturdy nylon strap but unfortunately it needs an adaptation to work with the Jasmine. This is simply a piece of sturdy string tied to one end of the strap, forming a loop that goes under the strings, right above the nut. You can also buy a special attachment that does this but my adaptation was free. String winding/cutting tool Planet Waves Pro Winder String Winder and Cutter I haven't used this one yet but it feels sturdy.
