Takamine

collapse expand iconDescription

The GN20CE combines Takamines compact, but big-sounding NEX body style with solid-top construction and a proprietary electronics system to create a guitar that looks as good as it sounds. For players looking for a different sound, the GN20CE pairs a solid cedar top with mahogany back and sides to produce a warm, detailed tone that works beautifully for a wide range of musical styles.

The slim satin-finish mahogany neck and 12-radius rosewood fingerboard provide great feel and playability, while the onboard Takamine TP-4TD preamp system gives you a built-in tuner with three-band EQ and gain controls for excellent amplified performance and versatility. Other great features include a synthetic bone nut and split bridge saddle, rosewood headcap, pearloid dot inlays, chrome die-cast tuners, and an elegant natural satin finish.
