Takamine G-series GN51CE NEX Acoustic-electric Guitar - Brown Sunburst Reviews

Takamine G-series guitars offer traditional Takamine quality and features at player-friendly prices. The GN51CE NEX offers some of the finest features in this series with solid tonewood selections, premium hardware, gig-ready electronics, and a powerful yet slim NEX body shape. This original Takamine body slightly reduces the size of a jumbo acoustic — its sound and power rival that of a dreadnought, but with a more balanced overall feel that's perfect for singer/songwriters who spend long hours onstage. A spruce top ensures plenty of volume with the type of dynamic sensitivity you’d expect from a much pricier instrument. Paired with spruce is black walnut back and sides; black walnut is incredibly lightweight and infuses the GN51CE with big, bright full-bodied tone. Playability is easy up and down the neck, thanks to Takamine’s slim profile mahogany neck and a body cutaway that boosts upper-fret access, while upscale hardware including laurel bridge pins and a synthetic bone nut and saddle enhance the overall feel and sound. Musicians looking to gig and record will also be pleased with this guitar’s TP-4T electronics, which provide a classic amplified acoustic sound plus a built-in chromatic tuner and EQ for tweaking tone to taste.
