General

The GD30CE-12NAT is a twelve-string western guitar worthy of every stage, as it's equipped with built-in electronics, making it ideal for acoustic as well as electric use. This is perfect for recordings and live gigs. What's more, this steel-string guitar has a cutaway, making it easier to reach the highest notes. The GD30CE-12 Cutaway Electric has a solid top-construction in order to get a rich sound and excellent resonance.

Takamine GD30CE-12: Made from the Right Stuff

The Takamine GD30CE-12 produces a full, warm sound. This isn't only due to the spacious sound of the twelve strings, but the mahogany sides and back of the body also greatly contribute to that sound. The slender mahogany neck and 20-fret rosewood fretboard with a 12-inch radius offer a comfortable feel and great playability. The GD30CE-12 isn't decorated with any unnecessary frills but it does feature a number of tasteful details such as a pearloid rosette and position markers. It has a two-piece bridge for optimal intonation and purity of tones.

TP-4TD Preamp with Built-In Tuner

The electronic heart of the GD30CE-12 is formed by Takamine's TP-4TD preamplifier. This preamp features a large volume knob (gain) and a 3-band shelving EQ with Bass, Middle and Treble. It also has an auto-chromatic tuner with LED display on board so that you can keep your twelve strings in tune on the darkest of stages. The preamp is powered by a 9V battery that is easy to replace thanks to the practical cap. A lamp indicates when the battery needs to be replaced.
