General

The Takamine GN51-BSB is an exceptionally beautiful guitar with a sublime sound. For decades, Takamine has been a household name in the world of acoustic guitars and many great artists have performed with a Takamine. The GN51-BSB offers you that famous Takamine sound at a very reasonable price. When you hear its full sound, you'd think that it was produced by a much larger sized guitar. Yet, thanks to the innovative NEX size, this Takamine is capable of producing a sound that is just as 'big'. This GN51-BSB has a beautiful Brown Sunburst finish.
Construction of the Takamine GN51-BSB
Takamine's NEX size is a combination of a classical triple O and a mini jumbo. Together with a solid spruce top and rosewood sides and back, the NEX size provides an exquisite sound with a deep bass and a clear, sparkly treble. Thanks to the slim mahogany neck with bound rosewood fretboard, the GN51-BSB is extremely comfortable to play and the innovative two-piece bridge gives you perfect intonation and increased tonal purity.
Luxury details
In addition to their wonderful sound, Takamine guitars are also characterised by great craftsmanship and this beautiful GN51-BSB is definitely no exception. Its body and neck have been decorated with elegant black-and-white bindings and stylish white mother-of-pearl position markers embellish the neck. The sound hole features a graceful rosette made of various hues of abalone and mother-of-pearl. You can find rosewood veneer on the headstock of this Takamine. The gold-plated tuners and a beautiful Brown Sunburst finish complete the picture.
