I found the next part of the sound tests, while the acoustic guitar responds to a strong point. Here you can play the best strum part with a continuous spot in the sizes 0.60 mm, 0.73 mm and 0.88 mm. Note that the power here is for everything, such as the Präsenz and the definition in the Bassbereich-verändern. My favorite here is the end of the Plektrum with the Stärke von 0.73 mm, that is the Bass range that is less well represented in the Gegensatz to 0.88 mm Plektrum definition. With finger-picking with Slaps or other percussive elements, the Takamine GY11MENS is a great figure.
