Description

BASS IS NEW JUST OPENED FOR DISPLAY

In the market for an acoustic-electric bass? The Takamine GB30CE. When you take the stage with the GB30CE, all eyes and ears will be on you. With its solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, and quartersawn-X bracing, this is one gorgeous, toneful jumbo. And the TK-40B preamp amplifies that great tone perfectly, letting you fine tune it with 3-band EQ, gain and mid-shift controls, and a bass-boost switch. Sporting a speedy neck and graceful Venetian cutaway, the GB30CE delivers top-notch playability (this is a Takamine, after all).

This bass is ready for stage and studio

With its solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides, the Takamine GB30CE serves up rich, resonant sound. The slender mahogany neck sports a 16″-radius rosewood fingerboard for fast fretting, while the onboard Takamine TK-40B preamp system provides a built-in tuner, 3-band EQ, gain and mid-shift controls, a bass-boost switch, and EQ bypass for big-time versatility. The dovetail neck joint and graceful Venetian cutaway give you super-comfortable playability, while the rosewood headcap, pearl dot fingerboard inlays, abalone rosette, and lovely gloss finish deliver a major dose of class.

Takamine – over 50 years of quality, great sound, and playability

With quality and value as guiding principles, Takamine’s instruments employ the finest tonewoods, construction techniques, and technical innovations such as the proprietary TK-40B preamp system found in the GB30CE.
