Takamine GN51CE-NAT Electro-Acoustic Steel-String Guitar

General

Takamine have given each of the models included in the G50 Series all of their luxurious hallmarks and quality build and sound while somehow managing to keep them relatively inexpensive. As such, the GN51CE-NAT is a solid-top acoustic with cutaway and electronics on board that delivers rich tone and incredible playing comfort whether plugged in or not. This instrument is built for the serious beginner who is already itching to perform or get into the studio.

Takamine GN51CE: Build Quality and Finish

The GN51CE is a NEX format steel-string guitar from the 2013 Takamine G-Series, has a round shape and waist as slim as that of smaller acoustics yet has a deep voice as big as that of a dreadnought. This guitar is the perfect stage and studio companion for singer-songwriters and finger-picking style players. The black walnut resonance chamber and spruce top give this instrument rich and balanced tonality while the cream-coloured bindings and abalone pearl sound-hole rosette add aesthetic elegance.

TP-4TD Preamp with Built-In Tuner

The stage ready GN51CE is fitted with a Takamine TP-4TD preamp with volume control and 3-band 'shelving' EQ split into Bass, Middle and Treble so you can dial in your amplified sound. It also includes an auto-chromatic tuner with LED display and the whole thing is run on one 9V battery that clips seamlessly into a fitted compartment in the body and has its own status LED so you know when to pick up a fresh battery.
