Takamine GN51CE-BSB NEX Electro Acoustic Guitar Sunburst

The Takamine GN51CE-BSB NEX Electro Acoustic Guitar Sunburst is one striking instrument. Showcased with a sublime sunburst finish, the NEX body – a Takamine exclusive – lends itself to smooth, effortless playability whilst its bold, silky voice carries each chord with clarity. And when you have the luscious surface of a bound rosewood fretboard underneath your fingertips.

As well as its gorgeous NEX shape, the GN51CE has a beautiful tonewood construction that promises truly glorious tones. Walnut back and sides are teamed with a solid spruce top, resulting in sparkling, rich sound with an even response across the whole frequency range, giving you even more musical freedom. And to ensure its aesthetic reflects such a heavenly sound, this acoustic is adorned with elegant finishing touches such as a patterned soundhole rosette, small dot inlays and a split saddle design for immaculate intonation.

Takamine’s NEX shape epitomises their forward-thinking craftsmanship. It’s the kind of guitar manufacturing that puts your needs as a musician first. Thanks to a nipped-in waist and scaled down size, the NEX is perfect for budding musicians and those who want extra comfort whilst playing. But to be honest, smooth playability is what every guitarist wants. Similar to the grand auditorium, the NEX’s bold, silky-smooth voice is incredibly versatile, meaning you can go from thick chords to delicate picking techniques whilst always retaining superb clarity.

The solid top of the GN51CE has been expertly crafted from spruce, and it’s the perfect soundboard for broad dynamics and projection. In fact, it’s one of the most common body top woods, so you know you can rely on it. Explore the wonders of incredible volume that carries definition with every note. Spruce also boasts brilliant versatility, allowing you to dive into the depths of different genres without losing a touch of sonic excellence. And when you have walnut back and sides providing all their resonance and brightness in good measure.

Takamine’s TP-4TD preamp will let you sculpt your magnificent sound with precision, sending an unmistakeable, instantly recognisable tone through the speakers.
