Takamine GN71CE - Beautiful guitar with great features and tone

Andrew253 16.10.2021

I have always loved the look of this guitar and Thomann had it for sale at the lowest price anywhere I could find. The guitar is simply beautiful with a 2 piece solid spruce top (which has plenty of grain and character), stunning black walnut back and sides and a laurel bridge and finger board, which are lighter in colour than ebony or rosewood. The body has a lovely maple binding front and back as well as along the fingerboard and around the headstock. The neck is made of mahogany and the whole guitar is finished beautifully in a high gloss finish.
The sounds from the GN71 are acoustically good, without being outstanding, (I don't like the D'addario strings - but this is a personal preference). However where this guitar comes alive is when played live, as the TK-40 pre-amp is awesome, giving great control over the amplified sound through the 3 band eq and the mid boost. Additionally the notch filter is brilliant for dialling in or out frequencies for your personal preference. The guitar as supplied was of excellent quality and whilst the action was slightly high for my preference, I couldn't mark the guitar down for that. I'm very pleased with my purchase and thanks Thomann for a very easy transaction.

Takamine review

Joe Nolan Ireland 12.05.2022

A beautifully made and classy guitar. Excellent neck, frets smooth and easy on the fingers. Used mainly to back traditional Irish music gigs, mainly not amplified, and more than capable of being heard through loud accordions, fiddles, banjos. A dream guitar when amplified, superb puck up. Great tone adjustment on the Eq built in, and the tuner is lovely to have. For the price, it is mildly astonishing!

Immens gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis

Knallgäuer 09.08.2019

Habe mir die Takamine gekauft, weil ich nur eine Ibanez Thinline für die Bühne hatte und mir unplugged mit jener ein wenig Power unterm Hintern (bzw. auf dem Oberschenkel gefehlt hat).

Die Optik der Taki ist wunderschön, exakt verarbeitetes Binding, und die Rosette aus Abalone macht natürlich schwer was her. Die Bespielbarkeit ist easy, sehr gute Saitenlage vom Werk her. Der PreAmp lässt am Amp selbst nix zu wünschen übrig, offline klingt die Taki sehr präsent und durchsetzungsfähig.

Wer für wenig Geld eine echt gute Takamine (wenn auch Made in China, aber was solls, wenns taugt?) haben möchte, ist hier gut beraten.

Alta calidad por un precio muy asequible

Sauky 19.01.2019

Suena, salvando las diferencias, muy pareceida a una Takamine TAN-16, de 1200 euros, pero esta solo te cuesta la mitad. El mastil es muy comodo, te da la sensacion de tener una electrica en vez de una acustica. El sonido es brillante, y tiene mucho cuerpo.

El previo es espectacular, de lo mejor de la guitarra, conectada a un buen ampli suena totalmente limpio, como sin estar conectada.

Lo unico que hay que hacer es cambiarle las cuerda, ya que viene con unas Daddario EXP16 del 12, su sonido es muy metalico, y el calibre no da juego a hacer arreglos en trastes altos, como recomendacion personal pondria elixir del 11

Visualmente es muy bonita por sus acabados en las clavijas, puente y boca.

Totalmente recomendada
