Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The GX18CENS is a natural-finish 3/4-size acoustic-electric travel guitar based on Takamine’s scaled-down NEX body style. A solid spruce top and custom-designed bracing form the core of the build, joined by mahogany back and sides, a mahogany neck, and rosewood fingerboard. The onboard TP4T preamp includes a tuner, so the instrument is equipped for amplified use. Takamine describes the NEX voice as balanced and supportive of vocals.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Travel-oriented players who want a 3/4-size acoustic-electric guitar with onboard tuning.

- Players who want a solid spruce top with custom-designed bracing.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players specifically seeking a full-size guitar body; this is a 3/4-size model.
