Takamine’s original NEX body is a compact, but big sounding guitar with a narrower waist body width - making it comfortable to play when sitting down. The GLN11E-NS features a warm all-mahogany construction and the newly developed TP-3G preamp which includes a chromatic tuner , 3-band eq and volume control. This Non-cutaway NEX shape adopts a short 630mm scale with lower string tension allowing for easier playability.
