Description

The Takamine P5DC Dreadnought Electro Acoustic is the hub of modern innovation and a producer of traditional acoustic sounds. The perfect blend of both worlds. Its large, striking dreadnought body shape has been magnificently crafted with a Venetian cutaway for simple, seamless access to the top frets, whilst the smooth mahogany neck and rosewood fretboard accommodate sleek, easy playing. And it’s heavenly to look at too. With a dazzling pickguard, gold die-cast tuning machines, and abalone inlays, even the smallest of details have been fashioned with Takamine’s diamond-quality craftsmanship.

The solid spruce top of the P5DC is showcased with all its natural beauty. And its tone is not to be ignored either. Expect sublime dynamics, glistening clarity, and beautifully balanced sonic qualities. It’s the kind of magic that every guitarist craves. Rosewood back and sides then add the ultimate mix of brightness and resonance, granting you even more versatility to suit a range of playing styles. What’s more, the CT4-DX preamp system allows you plug in, amp up, and yet still retain all that glorious acoustic goodness. A case is included too, meaning you can travel from gig to gig with the reassurance that your guitar will be reliably protected.

Huge dreadnought voice

The P5DC’s body shape is one that has stood the test of time. It was there at the start of guitar history, and it is here ready and waiting for you. Of course, it can only be the dreadnought. Explore the depths of such an enormous, rich voice, you’ll have resonance in the low end and a beautiful top end shimmer carrying every chord you strum. What’s more, the dreadnought has a wonderfully versatile tone that promises excellence across the whole frequency range. It’s the kind of versatility that thrives with a range of genres and playing styles.

Two wondrous tonewoods

…their sonic qualities know no bounds. Deliver each and every note with the supreme clarity of a solid spruce top and lose yourself in waves of gloriously rich tones. You’ll have beautifully articulate sound even when playing with immense volume. In fact, spruce’s broad dynamic range allows for such excellence. And when you have rosewood back and sides providing the perfect balance of resonance and sparkle, you can count on sublime versatility and a superior performance.

It’s all in the details…

It’s an instrument with premium quality flowing through its veins.
