An Acoustic-electric Dreadnought with a 3-piece Back
The Takamine GD93CE Dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar may be small, but it rewards you with its great sound, understated good looks, and smooth playability. Grab the fast mahogany neck, strum a few chords, and revel in the clear, full-bodied richness resonating from the cutaway dreadnought-style body and scalloped X-braced solid spruce top. Plug this 6-string gem in, and experience pure amplified acoustic tone, the way it was meant to be heard. The Takamine GD93CE Dreadnought is a guitar with big attitude.
Great sound is in the details
The Takamine GD93CE Dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar benefits from quality tonewoods and Takamine’s painstaking attention to detail. With its scalloped X-braced solid spruce top, black walnut sides, and black walnut/quilt maple back, the GD93CE looks great and is tonally versatile enough to handle whatever playing style your musical mood dictates. And if you’re playing out, the Takamine GD93CE Dreadnought’s stage-friendly gloss finish will certainly command your audience’s attention.
Takamine’s TK-40D preamp system
The GD93CE Dreadnought sports Takamine’s TK-40D preamp, giving you rich, clear-sounding amplified output — instantly. The TK-40D features a gain knob; a tuner; an active shelving EQ with bass, middle, and treble sliders; and a low battery indicator. The preamp is switched on by plugging a standard instrument cable into the endpin/strap-pin jack. Unplugging the cable turns the preamp off. The TK-40D is powered by a single 9-volt battery.
Takamine: a legacy of amazing quality, sound, and playability
The Takamine GD93CE Dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar benefits from a half-century of Takamine guitar-crafting knowhow. Launched in 1962 at the foot of Japan’s Takamine mountains, Takamine has been designing and building acoustic guitars that are seen in the hands of some of music’s biggest stars. With quality and value as guiding principles, Takamine’s instruments employ the finest tonewoods and construction techniques — something you’ll discover for yourself as soon as you pick up your GD93CE Dreadnought for the first time.
