Takamine GN93CE NEX Acoustic-electric Guitar Demo - Sweetwater Sound

[@adamchance3828]

I've played this guitar. It's perfect for the money - almost a steal. The back of this guitar looks like it should cost over $2K and the craftsmanship is just on a different level for this price. I'm getting one for Xmas this year. It's probably the first time I've ever felt so good about buying a guitar. Warm and fuzzy. ~Taylor DN7 ~Martin DX1

[@plumb2013]

Nice playing Sir, I've had one of these for almost a year now. Went to G.C. and ask the person there to pick me out 4 guitars under $1700.00, that were Concert body size. 1-Gibson, 1-Martin, 1-Breedlove, and 1-Taylor. I kept an open mind even though inside I realy wanted to walk out with one of the big names, Martin or Taylor. Saw the Takamine on the wall, and it was BEAUTIFUL. Played it not knowing the price. OMG, had to have it, and have loved it eversince. $550.00, are you kidding me. People this thing is a great guitar period. No I do not work for Takamine

[@adsvx]

Hey, if you happen to see this, I'm curious to hear if the guitar wore well with you. Thanks!

[@pindapowernet]

@@adsvx I had the same and still love it. And it is so beautifull. Glad not choosing a budget Taylor OR Martin.

[@Chridfer]

I tried one of these the other day, I loved it! I usually play a lot of electric and haven't really touched an acoustic recently since mine broke. But I'm thinking about one of these for my next acoustic.

[@colinmilch1523]

In my opinion, Takamine guitars are fun to play, have low action, and beautiful resonance. However, what I look for in an acoustic guitar is a bigger bass forte that Martin and Taylor guitars have. Still a fun guitar to play with though

[@vzeller]

You definitely haven't played one with a cool tube pre-amp because it blows Taylor and Martin away in the lower Hz range. If you are talking about unplugged in the room, I agree with you. These guitars are made for the stage and their electronics.

[@yairidy90]

I got this around Thanksgiving just to play out with because it was an Auditorium body style and the Dreads I have are hurting my back when i play for a full evening and my Tak EAN15c was starting to get pretty dinged up (soft cedar top). I have a Rainsong Dr1000 and a Tak EAN15c, both pretty high end guitars. I was quite surprised to find the playability, intonation and plugged in sound to be on pare with my much more expensive EAN15C and Rainsong. Even though it doesn't have the Palethetic Pickup system higher end Taks have, it still sounds great thorugh my Fishman Pro EQ Platinum preamp. This has actually become my go-to guitar for both gigging and practice and because it has laminate back and sides I don't even bother humidifying it. The back looks so stunning and it sounds so good, people think I upgraded! Here's a live video recorded just straight from the video camera. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6Lbq4CjnLunZ5I

[@normandei]

Hello, could you make a video in order to compare GD93CE and GN93CE, is it much different sound of each other??

[@simplejoe3706]

I'm buying one. Like now. Thanks for the demonstration.

[@TraciCuber]

I wish someone who wasn't so used to electric style playing would've demoed this guitar :( more finger-picking and light strumming and chords, less shredding...

[@chezruss]

Brad Davis was practically born with an acoustic guitar in his hands.

[@DougHinVA]

very smooth tuners are nice to have and the neck/board allow it to have a really nice feel for a nail player. Very nice if you play classical and otherwise delicate finger picking

[@MichaelXu3]

Just ordered this exact model! Reasonable for the price, however I suggest a quick fix by replacing the synthetic bone nut with a real quality one; it'll improve the tonality and resonance.

[@dalescharre7091]

I'm having a string volume imbalance, the G string doesn't come out near as loud as the other five when plugged in. The main problem I guess is it's a two piece. Any suggestions on help and changing the bone would be greatly appreciated

[@donwinant8272]

Just perfect for my daughter.

[@harrywilliamson33]

Nice guitar and also I love coffee as well

[@jessereyna7408]

Keep hearing great features? What are the great features? Is it all wood body construction? And what is the difference between this model and the GD93CE?

[@sweetwater]

Hi, Jesse. That guitar has many great features, including a solid spruce top, great electronics system, and quartersawn bracing. The only difference between those two models is the body shape. Thanks for your interest! Charlie Davis, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, [phone] ext. 1320

[@J3ttLife]

I need to learn to use a pick..

[@SL-yn2gw]

Even I can afford this guitar but after I watched your video I immediately regret my division coz I have to practice more to get better technique so I deserve it :v

[@greysenkemper1411]

How is it compared to the gd93ce

[@walkingaddict]

Is it a better guitar than LAG T318dce?

[@Vanhalen1]

Does is sound good without a microphone? Just playing in the living room.

[@luisgpr1]

It is a very resonant guitar with a very good unplugged volume.

[@1962starchild]

Traci you are right iv got this guitar how about the guitar and playing nonsense what about the chords etc who is interested in this guy

[@jessereyna7408]

Well,I’ve talked another company;and they said this guitar is not as good as I set out to get. Three piece means not real wood..just the front is solids. They even said this is laminate wood..not all wood. Guess I need to save for a while longer to get that all wood guitar.

[@PbJeanFhillipeRodrigues]

Hi men, you play good. Can you please help me? i have bye Takamine GJ72CE-NAT haves a great soud. but now i thing about the Takamine GD93CE NAT i new player... this is my first guitar...

[@anthonytauber9209]

im looking to get a new guitar.... why would i get this takamine over a martin or taylor? the taylor 214 or martin d12e/sc10e? Thanks

[@sweetwater]

Hi, Anthony. The Takamine is a great guitar for the money but there are many reasons why you might get any of those other guitars. Body shape would be a big one. If you want the sound of a classic dreadnought, the D12e would make more sense. If you're primarily an electric guitar player and want an acoustic that plays like an electric, the SC10e would probably be the best choice. The Taylor 214 is a similar shape but as the price indicates, it's a step up in terms of build quality and playability. If that's the style of acoustic you're after and the budget allows, it would be worth it to get the Taylor. Thanks for your interest!

[@sizzlemac5785]

Me dan links de amplificadores sierrenos Por que Quiero comprar uno para mi takamine Pero nose cual es el que usan para la musica sierrenia

[@RobertStiles]

The pickup had a freak-out when he slide his finger between notes. Takamine guitars have a lot of mid-range but aren't the warmest tones.

[@shah_danial]

There’s different of this with GD93CE body? Can anyone tell me the pro and cons of this both guitar model? Just sounds

[@alderladybius9385]

The GD has a dreadnought body which is usually thicker than this grand auditorium. Dreadnought is bassier and a little darker tone compared to this. Grand auditorium has brighter tone but less on bass.

[@anailsonoliveiraoficial]

hey broder Send the instruments to Brazil the guitar takamine GN 93 ce ?

[@JairVFilho]

tambem quero saber

[@jessereyna7408]

To be honest;I like the sound of this guitar;but my budget for now cannot excess 470.00 with case. Like I said:Guess I can save a little longer until late January or April next year?

[@markellegood9697]

Your first comment about laminate vs solid less any regard for the sound and play threw me, glad you clarified your budget which is far from an all solid. For the future, there are some all solid dogs out there as well so beware.

[@jessereyna7408]

Alvarez is another guitar company I thought about;or breed love.

[@renatocosta20]

please review takamine GJ72CE

[@fernandomoralespaz3617]

hello everybody. . i want to know de difference betew nat and nex. couse when i saw the guitar in guitar center, it says nex but when i see the nat version if practically the same. can someone put me out this dude. . thanks...

[@timbakker]

NAT is the color of the guitar. Natural. NEX is the body type.

[@hankrocks7504]

how much does this instrument go for? I would love one

[@alejandrov444]

how does this compares with the GJ72?

[@dalescharre7091]

Way better. I got the gd93 because I'd like the Dreadnought appearance, it's still a cutaway

[@brynedolor8015]

Is this guitar made in Japan or China

[@markpitts4563]

China--but don't let that put you off. I've got one and love it. The build quality, playability and sound are all really FIRST rate.

[@larrykenney7091]

How thick would the body be?

[@sweetwater]

Hi, Larry - great question. The body depth is about 4" on this guitar. Let us know if we can help you out with anything else. Thanks! Jason Filloramo, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, [phone] ext. 1281, [e-mail]

[@tunesmith7437]

Mic over pup...most acoustic pickups sound like a muted quacking duck....

[@mckeever854]

Are the back and sides all solid? Or laminate? Great video though

[@mcdee56]

+Sam Mckeever laminate

[@rentedtemple9889]

Is that a good or bad thing. I heard Laminate is cheap and nasty! Yet this guitar sounds amazing in the reviews on YT. What you think?

[@memeshack9454]

Solid top

[@deejay7339]

People making way too much a fuss. If you play guitar and don't write out specs you would say less. If it sounds good, it's good. Play more, say less @@rentedtemple9889

[@lrproductions2097]

You know what I would really like???? IF YOU SAID WHAT IT WAS MADE OF!!!!!!! Who creates these demos???

[@Deebz270]

It's the standard form for businesses such as Sweetwater... They're in the business of selling guitars and related tools and gear... More an advertisement than a proper review of an instrument. And... Time is MONEY.

[@STR_Studios]

This one sounds awesome! Got the version without Preamp which is even more beautiful ( in my opinion ). You can check it out, at my channel :-)

[@The2Frank]

🤠🎸👍

[@soundknight]

That pickup is awful
