Takamine Gn93 Natural Auditorium

A GN with a Modern Style Designed to Stand Out

With its contemporary and polished look, the GN93-NAT NEX positions itself as a folk guitar that stands out, both through its selected craftsmanship and its personality. The combination of a solid top and a back crafted from multiple tonewoods gives it a strong visual identity while aiming for a sound response inspired by high-end acoustic models.

For Which Guitarist and Styles?

This steel-string folk guitar is particularly suited for intermediate and advanced guitarists seeking an expressive instrument that is both comfortable and elegant. Its Auditorium format makes it very enjoyable for fingerstyle playing, nuanced strumming, as well as precise accompaniment for pop, folk, variety, and acoustic arrangements. It is also ideal for musicians looking for a versatile folk guitar capable of maintaining balance whether played aggressively or softly.

Sound Characteristics

The solid spruce top provides clarity, a crisp attack, and excellent responsiveness: the more you make it vibrate, the more it opens up and gains fullness. The choice of rosewood for the sides and part of the back promotes a wide response, with deep lows, bright highs, and generous sustain, while the curly maple contributes to definition and precision, especially in the midrange. The Auditorium format enhances overall balance: the sound is articulated and well-positioned in the mix, without the sometimes overly massive effect of larger formats, making it very musical both in solo playing and accompaniment.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To get the best out of this folk guitar, you can opt for a set of steel acoustic strings (standard format for folk guitars), picks suited to your attack (soft for round strumming, stiffer for clear articulation), and a universal guitar stand for safe daily storage.
