Solid spruce top with exquisite black gloss finish and white binding

The FT341 features a carefully selected, high-grade solid spruce top, providing clear and vibrant sound projection that can play sweet mellow passages or power chords with equal ability. 

Presented in Takamine's exquisite black gloss finish and white binding, it features appointments that are much like the iconic EF341SC. Eye-catching chrome hardware and Gotoh chrome tuning machines combine stunning visuals with unparalleled performance

Rosewood fingerboard

The smooth-as-silk rosewood fingerboard accommodates sleek, easy playing and ornate inlay fret markers give it an elegant finishing touch.

Maple back and sides

The maple back and sides are a perfect reflector for the tone generated by the solid spruce soundboard, producing a dynamic, wide-range sound with rich tonal projection and tight response.

Mahogany neck 

The luxury gloss-finished mahogany neck with a “low-C” profile provides a level of comfort and accuracy that you would expect from a premium-built instrument.

CTF-2N preamp with 2-band EQ, tuner & notch filter

For the FT341’s electronics, we return to our early roots with the new CTF-2N preamplifier which revives the sound of our early FET preamp model, affectionately known as the “Brownie”. The CTF-2N has that legendary sound, while adding the more modern functions of easy battery access, a chromatic tuner, and a notch filter.

Only 300 available worldwide

Dreadnought body

The history of the dreadnought shape precedes Takamine’s establishment in 1962, yet it remains a crucial part of Takamine’s rich heritage, symbolising the classic acoustic guitar. Takamine has been meticulously crafting this revered shape for over five decades, a favourite among iconic musicians.

Originally, "dreadnought" denoted a robust British warship, mirroring the guitar’s audacious and powerful acoustic presence.

Comparatively, the dreadnought is just a step below Takamine’s jumbo in size but diverges significantly in sound from the NEX, offering a distinct percussive element. This drum-like resonance is a unique characteristic that has drawn a diverse array of artists, like Bruno Mars and Bruce Springsteen, to Takamine’s dreadnoughts for their vibrant versatility.

In essence, Takamine's dreadnought guitars merge formidable acoustic prowess with versatile sonic characteristics, appealing to a broad musical audience.
