Takamine

Mark Goldenberg is a guitarist who has played for a myriad of artists including Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Linda Rondstat, Eels, Natalie Imbruglia, Chris Issak, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and Peter Frampton. He has been the lead guitarist for Jackson Browne since 1994. You might say the man knows his way around a fret board.

Mark was in need of cutaway, 12 fret to the body acoustic. He naturally contacted his old friends at KMC who suggested the Takamine TF740FS, and assured him he would fall hard for it. Going a step further, we speculated that band- mate David Lindley would love it too. Right on both counts, but Lindley is another story for another time.

The offspring of Mark's marriage to the TF740FS was his first CD of solo instrumental music which he mysteriously titled," Mark Goldenberg". Here is what one of his peers has to say about that album.

"Powerful, graceful, deeply melodic, and above all, emotional - Mark Goldenberg's stunning collection of acoustic guitar pieces shows off the imagination and technical excellence that fellow artists and record producers have relied upon for years, although seldom is he credited for the formidable compositional strength that is on display here. This is a letter from the interior, a meditation, and a banner for the personal journey".
