The GN20CE-NS combines Takamine’s compact but big-sounding NEX body style with solid-top construction and a proprietary electronics system to create a guitar that looks as good as it sounds.
For players looking for a different sound, the GN20CE-NS pairs a solid cedar top with mahogany back and sides to produce a warm, detailed tone that works beautifully for a wide range of musical styles. The slim satin-finish mahogany neck and 12”-radius ovangkol 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.
Other great features include a synthetic bone nut and split bridge saddle, ovangkol headcap, pearloid dot inlays, chrome die-cast tuners, and an elegant Natural satin finish.
NEX Body
This original Takamine body is a scaled-down Jumbo at heart. The NEX has a silky balance to the tone that supports vocals beautifully.
