Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The GY93E brings Takamine’s petite New Yorker body to an acoustic-electric design. A solid spruce top works with rosewood sides and a three-piece back of rosewood and quilt maple; the body style is described as focused and articulate. Its slim mahogany neck carries a bound rosewood fingerboard with a 12-inch radius. The TK-40D preamp adds onboard tuning, gain, three-band EQ, mid-contour, notch-filter, and EQ-bypass controls for plugged-in use. Gold die-cast tuners and gloss natural finish complete the presentation.
