TAKAMINE GD30CE12 NAT 12 STRING ACOUSTIC ELECTRIC GUITAR
Takamine have been building guitars for almost 60 years and the GD30CE12 is a fine example of their crafstmanship.
The hand crafted GD30CE12 is superb 12 string acoustic electric guitar that features a solid Spruce top, a soft Venetian style cutaway and Takamine’s renowned TP4TD pickup/preamp system.
The solid Spruce top is beautifully matched with Mahogany back and sides producing a rich, resonant tone that is balanced and focused. The slim Mahogany neck and 12″ radius Rosewood fingerboard feel simply superb and all stops have been pulled out with regard to play-ability thanks to our inhouse Pro-SCM setup.
Takamine were pioneers of integrated preamplifier-equaliser systems. The on board Takamine TP4TD preamp system gives you a built in chromatic tuner, three band active EQ and gain controls for excellent amplified performance and unbridled versatility.
Other professional features include a Rosewood bridge, synthetic bone nut and split bridge saddle, Rosewood headcap, pearl rosette and dot inlays, chrome diecast tuners and a beautiful natural finish.
Takamine’s Luthiers have taken great care to ensure that this guitar has the sound and features that Takamine are famous for while keeping its price point within reach for all.
