Takamine GD38CE Black 12-string Acoustic-electric Guitar

Like its high-end cousin the EF381SC, this impressive black, dreadnought cutaway 12 string G series model delivers a similar look, feel and sound at a budget-friendly price point.
The GD38CE BLK can boast one particular feature certain to make its Pro Series counterpart envious, namely the new TP-3G FET circuit preamp. Inspired by Takamine’s famous 3 slider “Brownie” preamp, the TP-3G is voiced in similar, warm, natural fashion as the original “Brownie” but with an easy to read chromatic tuner, handy notch filter and straightforward EQ controls that practically dial themselves in, all amply powered by a single 9 volt battery.
For extra portability, each GD38CE BLK will come with a new, specially designed GBXW gig-bag.

Top, rien à dire au niveau du service de livraison. Rapide, pas cher. L’instrument en lui même est parfait, une seule griffe au niveau des clés d’accordage (sûrement un problème d’usine) mais tout le reste est parfait. La guitare tiens bien même avec des cordes doublées (10-47). La petite sœur des legacy en vaut la peine, et au prix qu’elle est avec les réductions (moins cher qu’une gd30). Ca en vaut vraiment la peine

Top, nothing to say about the delivery service. Fast, cheap. The instrument itself is perfect, only one scratch on the tuning keys (probably a factory problem) but everything else is perfect. The guitar holds up well even with doubled strings (10-47). The little sister of the legacy is worth it, and at the price it is with the discounts (cheaper than a gd30). It's really worth it
