Get to know them!

The Takamine GN71CE acoustic-electric guitar will seduce you with its rich tone, stunning good looks, and amazing playability. Sporting a solid spruce top and black walnut back and sides, the GN71CE's cutaway NEX "small jumbo" body is incredibly comfortable - even for smaller players. The GN71CE's solid spruce top responds beautifully to a light, fingerstyle touch, yet will sing with authority when strummed boldly. If you're in the market for a versatile, comfortable, great-sounding acoustic-electric, check out Takamine's GN71CE.

Great sound is in the details

The Takamine GN71CE NEX acoustic-electric guitar benefits from quality tonewoods and Takamine's painstaking attention to detail. With its scalloped X-braced solid spruce top, and black walnut back and sides, the GN71CE looks great and is tonally versatile enough to handle whatever playing style your musical mood dictates. And if you're playing out, the Takamine GN71CE NEX's stage-friendly gloss finish will certainly command your audience's attention.

Takamine's TK-40D preamp system

The GN71CE sports Takamine's TK-40D preamp, giving you rich, clear-sounding amplified output - instantly. The TK-40D features a gain knob, a tuner, an active shelving EQ with bass, middle, and treble sliders, and a low battery indicator. The preamp is switched on by plugging a standard instrument cable into the endpin/strap pin jack. Unplugging the cable turns the preamp off. The TK-40D is powered by a single 9 volt battery.

Takamine - a legacy of amazing quality, sound, and playability

The Takamine GN71CE NEX acoustic-electric guitar benefits from a half-century of Takamine guitar-crafting knowhow. Launched in 1962 at the foot of Japan's Takamine mountains, Takamine has been designing and building acoustic-electric guitars that are seen in the hands of some of music's biggest stars. With quality and value as guiding principles, Takamine's instruments employ the finest tonewoods and construction techniques - something you'll discover fro yourself as soon as you pick up your GN71CE NEX for the first time.
