Takamine P5DC (Natural Gloss)

Takamine’s stylish P5DC dreadnought cutaway combines tradition with contemporary refinements, including a resonant solid spruce top with “X” top bracing for superior clarity and projection, and a solid rosewood back with rosewood sides for a rich, warm sound. Built with the performer in mind, it features Takamine’s proprietary CT4-DX™ preamp system paired with the unique Palathetic® under-saddle pickup for peerless amplified response. The CT4-DX provides ultimate in preamp flexibility used with the single Palathetic® under-saddle pickup, it offers four-band EQ(low, low mid, high mid, high) and two notch filter controls to reduce feedback, and an onboard chromatic tuner. Other performance-enhancing features include a convenient Venetian cutaway for easy access to the upper reaches of the fingerboard, and the split bone saddle provides more accurate intonation, while bridge pin positioning optimizes the break angle to improve sustain and presence. Premium design appointments include elegant ivory body binding with dark wood purfling, an abalone rosette, a rosewood fingerboard with abalone “dot-in-dot” inlays, a rosewood headcap, gold tuners with gold buttons, a natural bone nut and gloss natural finish. The P5DC comes complete with a premium SH200 A softcase.
