Takamine G Series GC3CE-NAT Classical Guitar – Natural Gloss

Cutaway classical with solid spruce top, onboard electronics, and warm nylon tone
The Takamine GC3CE-NAT is a well-regarded G Series classical guitar, pairing timeless nylon-string tone with modern stage-ready features. A solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides provide a balanced, resonant voice, while the Venetian cutaway gives players access to upper frets with ease. Takamine’s TP-4T preamp system with built-in tuner ensures clear amplified tone and convenience.
 
Condition: 
Very good overall condition. The front body has some visible impressions, including a lightly abraded “sanded” area as shown in the last photo. The back shows several light scratches, and the top of the headstock has a small ding. These are cosmetic only—structurally solid and fully functional with no impact on tone or playability.
Includes: A soft gig bag.
