Takamine GD71CE NAT acoustic

Takamine GD71CE-NAT G-Series G70 Acoustic Guitar in Natural Finish

The GD71CE-NAT is a cutaway dreadnought that delivers commanding tone without compromising playability. The slim mahogany neck and 12" radius bound rosewood fingerboard sit naturally in the hand during long gigs, while the dreadnought cutaway body opens up fret access without losing the deep resonance that cuts through a full mix on stage or in the studio.

Construction & Materials

Built around a solid spruce top paired with rosewood back and sides, this instrument projects the kind of rich harmonic character and controlled bass response that working musicians rely on night after night. The mahogany neck provides both warmth and the structural integrity needed for road use, while maple binding on the body, neck, and headstock—paired with a rosewood headcap and abalone rosette—reflects the craftsmanship built into every detail.

Electronics & Playability

The onboard Takamine TK-40D preamp gives you real control at the gig: built-in tuner, three-band EQ, gain controls, mid contour switch, notch filter, and EQ bypass switch let you dial in your tone for any room or recording scenario. The 1.6875" nut width, synthetic bone nut, and split bridge saddle accommodate fingerstyle finesse and aggressive pick attack equally well.
