Takamine Jasmine TS90C-DW Acoustic Guitar, (Used)

The Takamine Jasmine TS90C-DW is an electro-acoustic guitar from the late ’90s to early 2000s, built during a time when the Jasmine line offered a more affordable entry into the Takamine family. It features a cutaway body, making it easier to reach the higher frets, along with a built-in pickup system for amplified playing. The guitar is made with a mahogany burl top, back, and sides, giving it a distinctive look, all finished in a dark walnut that adds to its warm, understated appearance.

The neck has a comfortable, easy-going profile and is fitted with a rosewood fingerboard, offering a familiar feel for most players. With around 21 frets and a standard full-size scale length, it’s well suited for both chord work and melodic playing, while the nut width of roughly 43 mm provides comfortable string spacing. Its construction reflects the solid, reliable build quality often associated with Korean-made instruments from that era.

The onboard electronics allow it to transition smoothly from unplugged practice to amplified performance, making it a flexible option for different playing situations. Combined with the cutaway design, it’s a guitar that works well both at home and on stage. As part of the earlier Jasmine lineup, it represents a generation of Takamine-associated instruments that focused on accessibility while still delivering dependable performance and character.
