Like its high-end cousin the EF341SC, the Takamine GD-34CE Dreadnought 6-String Acoustic-Electric Guitar features an impressive black dreadnought cutaway body that delivers a similar look, feel and sound at a budget friendly price point. Dreadnought is the most popular body shape of the past half century, the Dreadnought delivers a strong low end with plenty of volume. With its solid spruce top and sapele back and sides, the GD34CE boasts the booming but balanced voice one would expect from a much pricier Takamine dreadnought, and the TP-3G electronics featuring a 3 band EQ and chromatic tuner enables you to deliver that true acoustic tone from a stage in typical Takamine fashion. For extra portability, each GD34CEwill come with a new, specially designed GBXW gig bag.
