Big 12-string sound for a little price.
The 12-string Takamine G Dreadnought EG345C Acoustic-Electric Guitar has the characteristc broad top and deep body that create a large resonant air chamber that emphasizes bass response and produces luscious full sound.
The EG345C Takamine 12-string excels in ensemble playing and is heavily favored by flatpicking players. The cutaway provides plenty of range and comfort when accessing the upper-register frets. The guitar's lamminate spruce top offers balanced tone, while the mahogany body brings out plenty of clear, full-sounding volume and depth. The Takamine G dreadnought's dovetail neck joint, rosewood bridge and fretboard, and mahogany neck offer plenty of sustain, while the asymmetrical neck and 1-5/8" nut width provide comfort for intricate fretboard movements.
At the heart of the Takamine EG345C 12-string is an impressive electronics system amplifying your sound with intuitive frequency controls. The guitar's CP-100 pickup is innovatively designed with a U-shaped aluminum rail securing the pickup and saddle for a snug fit and balanced response from the entire guitar—not just pressure from the strings.
The G dreadnought EG345C's gold hardware, gold tuners, and gloss finish add a striking touch to this already beautiful Takamine 12-string guitar.
