Takamine are great! Personally I'd go for a non-cutaway but if you think you're going to make good use of it then go for it (to be fair my Taylor 12-string is a cutaway and I use the extra access all the time for John Butler type antics...)!
Guild, Gretsch and D'Angelico have guitars in the same price range worth a look too.

I'm thinking of getting me a nice 12-string acoustic for general sofa playing (/beautiful wall ornament.) Any reason to look beyond a Takamine GJ72CE-12? Gets good reviews, I think it looks fantastic and the all-important cutaway to access the 17th fret (Genesis, "Cinema Show" intro!)
