Detail 01
TK-40D onboard preamp
Provides a built-in tuner, gain control, three-band EQ, mid-contour switch, notch filter, and EQ bypass switch.

Independent shopping perspective
Built around a jumbo body, the GJ72CE pairs a solid spruce top with flame maple back and sides for the volume and robust sound associated with its design. It is an acoustic-electric with Takamine’s TK-40D preamp onboard: tune from the guitar, set gain and three EQ bands, select mid-contour or notch filtering, or bypass the EQ. A slim mahogany neck and 12-inch-radius bound rosewood fingerboard define the playing platform, finished in natural gloss with gold die-cast tuners and pearl buttons.
