Takamine GD-30CE 12-String Acoustic-Electric Guitar Wine Red

Description

The Takamine GD-30CE 12-string acoustic-electric guitar brings the bold, intricate sound of a 12-string to the stage and studio. Takamine crafted this dreadnought with a solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides for resonant, full-bodied tone. The slim mahogany neck and 12″ radius ovangkol fingerboard offer smooth playability, while the soft Venetian cutaway grants easy access to higher frets.

Resonant Tone With a Spruce Top and Mahogany Back and Sides
The GD-30CE 12-string gets its rich, complex sound from the pairing of a spruce top with mahogany back and sides. The solid spruce top vibrates freely, allowing the GD-30CE 12-string to sing with clarity and projection. Mahogany contributes warm, rounded lows and strong midrange punch. Together, these tonewoods yield excellent resonance and sustain perfect for the lush harmonies of a 12-string guitar.

Slim Mahogany Neck and 12″ Radius Ovangkol Fingerboard for Smooth Playability
The slim mahogany neck joins the body at the 14th fret for easy access to upper frets. Its smooth satin finish and slim profile lend a comfortable, fast feel. The ovangkol fingerboard has a 12″ radius for low, buzz-free action and easy chord changes. Jumbo frets allow for expressive string bending. This combination makes the GD-30CE 12-string enjoyable to play for long periods.
