The Takamine G Series GB30CE-NAT Acoustic-Electric Bass brings professional-grade tone and stage-ready versatility to bassists wanting warm acoustic resonance with live performance control. Designed for the demands of both stage and studio, this jumbo bass features a solid spruce top paired with mahogany back and sides, producing rich, resonant low-end and balanced mids.
The build includes a Venetian-style cutaway for easy access to upper frets and a slim mahogany neck with a 16-inch radius rosewood fingerboard that enhances playability for walking bass lines and melodic runs.
Onboard, Takamine’s TK-40B preamp gives you control over your live sound with a built-in tuner, 3-band EQ, gain control, mid-shift, bass-boost switch, and an EQ bypass feature for dynamic tonal shaping.
Attention to detail shines through with a dovetail neck joint, synthetic bone nut and saddle, fingerboard inlays, abalone rosette, and chrome die-cast tuners — all finished with a polished gloss that underscores its stage presence.
