EF341SC Dreadnought Guitar: A Blend of Tradition and Modern Innovation

The EF341SC Dreadnought, meticulously handcrafted in our renowned pro series facility, represents over five decades of precision and quality in musical instrument craftsmanship. Guitar World Australia is proud to present this iconic instrument, celebrated for its unmatched versatility and sound quality among professional musicians across all genres.

At the heart of the EF341SC's esteemed reputation is its solid cedar top, expertly crafted to produce both delicate, mellow passages and robust power chords with effortless transition. Complemented by its maple back and sides, this guitar not only projects a rich, full-bodied tone but also stands as a visual masterpiece under stage lights, thanks to its striking gloss black finish.

The guitar’s mahogany neck, affixed to the body with a traditional dovetail joint known for its strength and durability, ensures a playing experience that is both comfortable and reliable, session after session. This instrument also features the innovative Takamine’s CT4B II preamp system, paired with the exclusive Palathetic™ under-saddle pickup, delivering unparalleled amplified sound quality and response.

With its built-in three-band EQ, volume control, and tuner, the highly acclaimed CT4B II preamp system offers musicians comprehensive control over their sound, enabling a perfect tone in every performance situation.

For enthusiasts and fans alike, the EF341SC holds a special place in music history as Jon Bon Jovi's guitar of choice for over two decades. Acquired from a local music store in New Jersey in 1994, this guitar has accompanied him on global tours, standing as a testament to its quality and durability. Its legacy underscores the instrument's roadworthiness and enduring appeal among top musicians.

The EF341SC Dreadnought, with its single cutaway design, is a masterpiece of Takamine's craftsmanship from their esteemed Japanese factory. Its solid cedar top, combined with a mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, and maple back and sides, produces a wonderfully balanced sound. Unlike many acoustic guitars that start bright and gradually mellow out, the EF341SC impresses with a rich low end and clear, articulate highs right out of the box, ensuring no note is ever lost or muddied, even in complex chord voicings.
