Limited Edition 2011 Takamine 50th Anniversary G Series
Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar
The
Takamine 50th Anniversary Edition G Series Acoustic-Electric Guitar is
the first “Limited Edition” G Series guitar in their 50 year history.
This instrument is built using the same themes used on their collector's
edition T50th commemorative and LTD2012 guitars. These design themes
will never again be duplicated.
Solid
Sitka spruce and mahogany back and sides give this guitar a powerful
voice with excellent projection for outstanding acoustic performance.
Team this with a state of the art Takamine TP4T pickup and preamp system
for un-matched stage capabilities.
TP4T Preamp Features
The
TakamineTP4T preamp found on G-Series guitars features a gain knob, a
tuner, an active shelving system EQ with bass, middle, and treble
frequency slider controls, and a low battery light. The preamp is
switched on by plugging a standard mono instrument cable into the
endpin/strap pin jack. Unplugging the cable switches the preamplifier
off. The TP4T Preamplifier is powered by a single 9 volt battery.
Gain
Control: The gain knob controls the volume of the preamp. Turning this
knob all the way to the left will effectively silence the preamplifier.
Turning it all the way to the right will produce the maximum output.
Tuner:
The tuner in the TP4T is fully chromatic. Press the tuner switch to
activate it. The note being played is shown in the digital display along
with either an Up or Down arrow. If an Up arrow appears the note is TP4T Preamp Features

Tuner:
The tuner in the TP4T is fully chromatic. Press the tuner switch to
activate it. The note being played is shown in the digital display along
with either an Up or Down arrow. If an Up arrow appears the note is
sharp (too high) and needs to be lowered. If a Down arrow appears the
note is flat (too low) and needs to be raised. The faster the arrow
flashes, the farther out of tune it is. As you bring it closer in tune
the speed with which the arrow flashes will decrease. When both arrows
appear and they are not flashing the note is in tune. The tuner will
automatically shut off after 90 seconds. Note that once the battery
drops below a certain voltage level the preamp may still function but
the tuner will not. If you are still getting output from the preamp but
the tuner is not functioning try changing the battery.
Bass Frequency Slider: This slider allows you to boost or cut the bass frequency
Middle Frequency Slider: This slider allows you to boost or cut the middle frequency.
Treble Frequency Slider: This slider allows you to boost or cut the treble frequency
For
the first time in Takamine’s 50 year history here's a Limited Edition G
Series guitar to commemorate this important milestone!
