Description
Diverging from the typical body style, the Takamine GN20 boasts an NEX body shape similar to a scaled down jumbo. Built with a solid cedar top and matched with mahogany back and sides, this guitar produces a warm, silky tone that lends well to vocal pairing. Its slim satin-finish mahogany neck and 12” radius rosewood fretboard combine to provide smooth, easy playing while the split-saddle and pin-less bridge produce exceptional intonation. Even though it’s modestly appointed, this humble acoustic will surely surprise you the second you strum a chord.
