What Takamine says about their NEX shape:
The NEX solves some issues that users have with some traditional guitar shapes. The venerable dreadnought shape is a great, booming percussive box that, for some people, is somewhat uncomfortable to play seated. Similarly, the jumbo is a great shape that holds up to hard strumming, but is giant... especially when sitting. The NEX is essentially a jumbo that is shrunken down to the dimensions of a dreadnought. Its slimmer waist makes it very comfortable to play while seated, and it has the totally classic vibe of a jumbo shape.
Tonally, the NEX shape gives you a very glossy, strong strumming sound without much physical effort. There is less percussion than a dreadnought, so it is better suited for fingerstyle. With its deceptively larger body, it still provides plenty of overtones and fullness. It has a contemporary sound that supports vocals well, making it a great guitar in a band setting, or for solo singer-songwriters. If you're looking for a guitar that sounds great "in the mix" or center-stage bold, check out one of our many NEX-shaped guitars.
