Description
Takamine GN73CELH SB NEX Cutaway Left-Handed Acoustic-Electric Guitar with a solid spruce top, maple back and sides, a maple neck, a rosewood fingerboard, and a Satin Black finish.
I've been playing guitar for over 30 years. I started as a studio musician in Los Angeles, and now I run Terry Carter Music Store and a music education platform that has taught thousands of students how to play.
Left-handed players deserve the same great guitars. This is a retro-inspired satin black NEX cutaway that looks as at home on a rock stage as it would in a speakeasy. A solid spruce top over maple back and sides gives it bold, loud tones that still stay articulate in delicate passages, and the TP-3G preamp takes it to the stage.
