Classic dreadnought body with a sweet maple twist
One of the most popular acoustic guitar shapes since its inception, dreadnoughts not only deliver robust presence and driving bass, but also a softer, sensitive side perfect for folk tunes or a lighter fingerpicked touch. With such a range available, everyone from acoustic bluegrass shredders to intimate singer/songwriters all favor dreadnoughts such as the Takamine GD-37CE12 PW. Moreover, this acoustic-electric doubles down on the dreadnought shape’s utility with its maple back and sides. Dreadnought lovers often overlook maple, but this tonewood has a strong transparency that helps personal style and expressive playing shine, especially onstage. When amplified, maple carves out sonic space for the GD-37CE12 PW but will never muddy the mix.
Revered TP-3G electronics
For decades, Takamine has proudly equipped players with acoustic-electric amplification that’s developed in-house, and the original systems were lightyears ahead of the competition in terms of sound quality and control. The GD-37CE12 packs Takamine’s acclaimed TP-3G electronics system, which combines stellar customization with streamlined controls, including a 3-band EQ. This robust equalizer lets you shape lows, mids, and highs with up to +/- 12dB of range for each band, meaning you can sweeten sounds while warding off cluttered bass and ear-piercing trebles that often plague amplified twelve-string acoustics. From mid-forward presence that cuts through the mix in band settings to scooped sounds that support a singer/songwriter’s performance, the TP-3G’s controls are indispensable assets and easy to love.
