An electro-acoustic dreadnought designed for the stage in the Takamine spirit

With this GD90, Takamine offers an electro-acoustic folk guitar that emphasizes musicality and efficiency: a dreadnought format designed to fill the space, ambitious luthiery thanks to solid Madagascar rosewood, and onboard electronics to transition effortlessly from the living room to the stage. The refined aesthetic details (maple purfling, abalone inlays and rosette, gold open gear tuners) highlight its high-end positioning while staying true to a musician-oriented philosophy.

For which guitarists and styles?

This guitar is particularly aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who want a versatile and expressive folk guitar, equally comfortable with powerful strumming and defined fingerpicking. Its dreadnought format is perfectly suited for folk, pop, acoustic rock, country, and vocal accompaniment styles. The cutaway will be a real advantage if you frequently play beyond the 12th fret for melodic lines or solos.

Sound

The solid spruce top provides attack, precision, and a wide dynamic range: it responds well to both gentle playing and strong pick attacks. The solid Madagascar rosewood back and sides enrich the spectrum with deep lows, bright highs, and a slightly scooped midrange that gives a sense of spaciousness, with naturally long sustain. The dreadnought format favors projection and presence, while the TP4TD preamp preserves the acoustic identity of the instrument when amplified, with accessible controls to quickly adapt to the venue.

Recommended compatible accessories

To stay as close as possible to the original setup, opt for a set of steel acoustic strings in gauge 12-53, ideal for maintaining a balance between comfort, volume, and tuning stability.
