Takamine GN73CE NEX Cutaway Guitar - Satin Black Maple | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls

Introduction

The Takamine GN73CE features a retro-inspired satin black finish on a versatile NEX cutaway body that bridges the gap between comfort and powerful projection. This acoustic-electric guitar combines a responsive solid spruce top with maple back and sides for exceptional tonal clarity and articulation. Perfect for intermediate to professional players seeking a guitar that delivers bold volume without sacrificing playability or comfort in any performance setting.

Product Overview

Construction and Materials

The GN73CE showcases a solid spruce top that resonates with authority, offering excellent projection and dynamic response for expressive playing. Its distinctive maple back and sides contribute brightness and clarity that cut through any mix, while the sleek NEX body—a scaled-down version of a jumbo dreadnought—provides exceptional comfort without compromising on volume or resonance. The satin black finish not only gives this guitar its striking stage presence but enhances tonal characteristics and durability.

Neck and Playability

The maple neck provides excellent stability and quick response, complemented by a premium rosewood fingerboard that offers sonic balance and impressive sustain. With a comfortable 42.5mm nut width and standard 644mm scale length, this guitar delivers an effortless playing experience for performers of all hand sizes. The NEX cutaway design provides unrestricted access to upper frets, making this instrument versatile enough for complex fingerstyle passages and lead work.

Electronics and Sound

Equipped with Takamine's proprietary TP-3G preamp system, designed in-house for optimal acoustic amplification, the GN73CE transitions seamlessly from unplugged intimacy to stage-ready performance. This sophisticated electronics package includes intuitive controls for masterful EQ shaping, allowing players to dial in their perfect tone whether performing in a small venue or on a large stage. Unplugged, this guitar delivers bold projection with remarkable articulation, handling both aggressive strumming and delicate fingerpicking with equal clarity.

Ideal For

  • Versatile performers who transition between intimate acoustic sets and amplified stage performances
  • Rock and folk musicians seeking a guitar with striking visual presence and powerful projection
  • Players who find traditional dreadnoughts uncomfortable but don't want to sacrifice volume
  • Recording artists requiring exceptional clarity and articulation across all frequency ranges
  • Gigging musicians who need reliable electronics and comfortable playability for long sets
