Takamine s P4DC dreadnought cutaway combines tradition with contemporary refinements, including a resonant solid spruce top with scalloped 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, the P4DC features Takamine s CT4B II preamp system and proprietary Palathetic under-saddle pickup for superior amplified response. The acclaimed CT4B II features a three-band EQ, volume control and built-in tuner. Other performance-enhancing features include a convenient Venetian cutaway for easy access to the upper reaches of the fingerboard, and Takamine s asymmetrical neck profile which is slightly thinner on the treble side so that it fits the natural shape of your hand, resulting in a comfortable feel and improved playability. 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.BODY SHAPE: Dreadnought CutawayTOP: Solid SpruceBACK: Solid SapeleSIDES: SapeleBRIDGE: Rosewood Pin-lessFINGERBOARD: RosewoodTUNERS: Gold with amber buttonsINLAYS: Wood dot-in-dotFINISH (TOP): Gloss NaturalELECTRONICS: CT4B II PreampCASE: Archtop hard-shell case
