Jesus kuranda da sıkça geçen bir peygamber. Ölmeden önce kuranda Jesus nasıl anlatılıyor mutlaka okuyunuz. Tanrı sizi kutsasın Jesus islamda da geçen çok önemli bir peygamber ❤
So, what mercy is you god showing the kids who he (being all powerful) gives excruciating terminal bone cancer to ? Or what mercy was shown to the over quarter of a million men, women, children and babies who were drowned or ripped apart by the 2004 Tsunami ? Grow up and actually look at what's happening in the world - if there ever was a god, he has fucked off and left us to it - where's the mercy in 45,000 dead in Palestine or the hundreds of thousands dead in Ukraine/Russian war ? (don't bother replying, it'll be utterly childish wish thinking nonsense)
HI again John - (Alan Sturgess here, I often used to comment when I signed on using my other channel). Another great demo. Lovely sounding instrument. These days, dreadnoughts are just too big to be comfortable for me. I used to play an Eko Ranger 12 string which had the added quality of being heavy - but it had a great sound. These days I prefer 3/4 sizes or parlours like the Fender PM-2E which is a beauty. (try one if you ever get the chance). The EQ side of things for the Takamine sounds very natural. Your demo of various settings was especially interesting. I loved the 'mid range max' setting - very rich and yet also clear. Bell rung on this channel as well. I always enjoy your gentle style of review. Cheers.
Yes I too find myself using smaller and smaller instruments. For my next video I will be showing how to make a nylon string thing out of a 12 string Telecaster kit!
@@JohnCouplandguitar S'truth!!! I've recently seen some uploads by a chap who fits nylon strings to a Strat and plays it acoustically - really surprising. I've seen but never played as Tele 12. Ever since 1963 I've had a 12 string until very recently when I donated my Taylor 562ce to my local hospice for them to sell via their eBay shop. However, I can't really do without a 12 so I'll have a JHS Vintage 'Paul Brett' 12 instead. A nylon Tele 12 . . . are you looking for Legendary status or is this an alternative to you previous upload about solutions for older players with less-than-nimble fingers?
Thanks John. As always a brilliant review, and a great song to finish. I hope you had a wonderful a Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you and your family.
Takamine's own website for current GD51 production -all models, states Laurel for the fingerboard. Images present the fingerboard shade identical to the one you are holding. Previous years' production is anyone's guess.
Thanks for taking the effort to do this great and unbiased review’s.. This Takamine looks lige a great “take everywhere” gig guitar 😊 PS enjoyed your song and skillful playing🫶
The first GD51(acoustic)and GD51ce(with electronics) used Solid Sitka Spruce Tops and Rosewood back and sides. Then a few years ago they switched to Black Walnut. The Rosewood is lighter in color than Walnut. The reason for the change is because Indian Rosewood like Brazilian Rosewood is no longer available. Companies like Martin, Gibson, Taylor, Takamine and Alvarez buy quantities that last up to 50 years. The reason why Brazilian Rosewood can be found on extremely high end guitars usually Anniversary models costing up to $100,000 Canadian is due to companies cutting old stumps. Walnut is has bass but still has highs so it's high quality and available anywhere in Canada or the US making the guitars more affordable. I bought the first Walnut back, sides.fretboard and and bridge guitar. Gibson J15 with a maple neck and all North American Wood. Then Walnut started being used by Taylor, Takamine, Seagull. The only major manufacturer that hasn't used it is Martin.I highly recommend Walnut.
The cheeper Taks are made in the same plant as Yamahas so the Yamamha FG830 is quite similar but lacks the pick up. (I once unpacked a new Yamaha only to find it had a Takamine sticker on the scratch plate!)
Personal preference, detest playing Dreadnoughts. That said, does Takamine make a guitar in any segment that isn't relatively desirable vs alternatives if one's budget extends there? Can't fault the tone or volume of the GD51.
Because of copyright laws I never use other artist's work. As I am often asked this question I have made a video explaining what they are. th-cam.com/video/du-X5wR1h0A/w-d-xo.html
Probably a good guitar, I'm just not a fan of the resonance in it, which makes or brakes an acoustic. The after taste is somehow wrong. But then again I*m an idiot.
Beautiful song John, our God is as your song says is so full of grace and mercy towards us through Jesus His beautiful Son. Hallelujah what a Saviour.
Amen to that.

Great review. Thanks a lot.
Glad it was helpful Alex.
A comprehensive demo. An impressive guitar!
Thank you for the excellent demo. There's one for sale near me and you've convinced me to buy it.
Glad I could help!
Was not expecting the song, but it was such a beautiful song. Well done John. God Bless.
Thanks Derrick.

Thank you for making learning interesting on your channel:)
My pleasure!

Same to you Steve.

You made that Takamine sound better than the Rosewood version I own.
Cool guitar 🎸 I love the sound great review
Thanks!
What a wonderful review! Great reviewer, good pacing, covers all the angles, touches of humor and even a song at the end about Jesus! Amen
Thanks Ken, much apreciated.
Thank you sir for your detailed info on the Takamine GD51CE, I am really thinking about purchasing this guitar.
Good choice!
Wonderful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Bravo! You saved the best for last.
Thanks Gary, much appreciated.
Thank you John. I enjoy your reviews, and as an occasional songwriter myself, I enjoy it when you play one of your compositions. Well done..
My pleasure Ross!
Great Song!!!
Thanks Ben, much appreciated.
Bonus was the song. Loved it.
Nice tune man!
Thanks for listening
It is a great guitar and thanks for this awesome review. Do you think there is a similiar sounding guitar as a straight upgrade?
The cheeper Taks are made in the same plant as Yamahas so the Yamamha FG830 is quite similar but lacks the pick up. (I once unpacked a new Yamaha only to find it had a Takamine sticker on the scratch plate!)
Great review

Молодец дедуля, очень приятно!!!
God bless!

I find a big guitar useful for church as the twit on the desk only remembers to fade me up around verse 2.
Hi Sir I have a question. The chords that you use for testing the guitar, are those just a random chords you use or it's a song from other artist?
Because of copyright laws I never use other artist's work. As I am often asked this question I have made a video explaining what they are. th-cam.com/video/du-X5wR1h0A/w-d-xo.html
👌👍🙏
This guitar would be suitable for Johnny Cash songs too.
Я думаю как первая гитара сойдёт так как если брать первую совсем дешёвую то можно разочароваться и совсем забросить.✌️🇧🇾
