zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Perfect for performers, this acoustic-electric has an ultra-comfortable "small jumbo" body and natural-sounding TP-4TD preamp system.

The Takamine GN30CE Nex is a stage-worthy acoustic/electric guitar that features solid-top construction, superior-sounding Takamine electronics and the compact but big-sounding NEX body style with a soft Venetian-style cutaway.

The GN30CE's comfortable body features a solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides that produce a rich, resonant sound. The slim mahogany neck and 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard provide great feel and playability, while the onboard Takamine TP-4TD preamp system gives you a built-in tuner with three-band EQ and gain controls for excellent amplified performance and versatility.

GREAT GUITAR...fell in love with it after playing my friends! Best acoustic/electric I've ever owned! EXCELLENT sounding, fantastic finish, nothing cheaply made!!! I was really surprised of the quality even though it came out of China. Fits me really well...not too large like a jumbo Epiphone that I first tried out,, and much easier to reach up the neck with the single cut away. Professional sounding for sure!!!
Sound
Crisp sound on the high notes nice and deep on the low side, clarity is unreal!
Features
Great materials, spruce and mahogany, fit and finish is superb and natural finish looks awesome.
Ease of Use
Don't care for the heavy gauge strings that came with it...appears to be .012...i'm used to .010 but the D'Adario's do sound sweet...just my personal preference, as I have arthritis and diabetic neuropathy in my hands and fingers so thinner strings get the nod for me.
Quality
Should last forever...after all Takamine is the "hardest working guitar!!!" Electronics sound really sweet through my 40 watt Peavy 10.
Value
OH YEAH!!!
Manufacturer Support
No...not yet for anything!
The Wow Factor
Looks alone aren't everything...but I sure look cool just holding it playing...and it does have a great sound!
