Takamine GN77KCE Hawaiian Koa

Takamine GN77KCE NAT Electro Acoustic Guitar
Series: G70 Series
Body Shape: NEX Cutaway
Orientation: Right-Handed
Finish: Natural Gloss

Overview

The Takamine GN77KCE NAT is a beautifully crafted electro-acoustic that combines striking Hawaiian koa aesthetics with the balanced, expressive voice of Takamine's popular NEX body shape. Sitting comfortably between a dreadnought and jumbo, the NEX design offers impressive projection while maintaining a comfortable playing experience, making it an excellent choice for singer-songwriters, fingerstyle players, and live performers alike.

Featuring a solid Hawaiian koa top paired with layered Hawaiian koa back and sides, the GN77KCE delivers a warm, articulate tone that becomes richer with age. The gloss finish highlights the natural beauty of the koa grain, while premium appointments such as gold hardware, abalone detailing, and a laurel fingerboard give the guitar an elegant, high-end appearance. Equipped with Takamine's TP-4TD preamp system with a built-in tuner, it's equally at home on stage, in the studio, or practising at home.
