Offering booming low-end projection, warm acoustic resonance, and stage-ready electronics, this Takamine G-Series EG512C is a full-scale acoustic-electric bass crafted during Takamine's revered Korean production era under KMC Music. Built around a deep, resonant jumbo cutaway body, it delivers the air displacement and natural volume needed for unplugged acoustic jams while retaining tight, articulate definition when plugged in.
The instrument features a select spruce top paired with mahogany back and sides, complemented by multi-ply binding and a shimmering concentric abalone rosette. The smooth Venetian cutaway provides effortless access all the way up the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard. A full 34" long-scale maple neck provides familiar tension and string spacing for standard electric bass players transitioning to acoustic.
For amplified performance, the bass comes factory-equipped with Takamine's onboard active preamp system featuring an under-saddle piezo pickup, 3-band EQ, and an integrated digital chromatic tuner. Complete with a pinless rosewood bridge that speeds up string changes, chrome die-cast tuners, and a protective Gator padded gig bag with front accessory pocket and backpack straps, this instrument is fully set up, bench-tested, and ready for stage or studio.
