Takamine P4DC

Guitar Gallery is a premium guitar shop in South Africa and a proud reseller of Takamine guitars.

Takamine’s P4DC 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 sapele back with sapele sides for rich, warm sound.

Built with the performer in mind, it features Takamine’s CTF-2N preamp system paired with the unique Palathetic® under-saddle pickup for peerless amplified response. This retro inspired CTF-2N provides warm and natural sounding, 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 the pin-less rosewood bridge makes string changes a breeze.

Premium design appointments include elegant ivory body binding with dark wood purfling, a rosette featuring concentric rings and wood marquetry, a rosewood fingerboard with ivory binding and wood “dot-in-dot” inlays, gold tuners with amber buttons, a natural bone nut, elegant red tortoise pickguard and a gloss natural finish. The PD4C comes complete with a premium archtop hardshell case.

The most popular body shape of the past half century, the Dreadnought delivers a strong low end with plenty of volume.
