Returns Simplified.The Takamine P5DC Pro Series dreadnought cutaway acoustic-electric guitar brings tradition and innovation together for unmatched tone and playability. Designed for serious performers, it features a solid spruce top and rosewood back and sides for resonant, balanced sound. The convenient cutaway provides full access to the upper frets, while an asymmetrical mahogany neck offers a comfortable feel in your hand. Plug in the P5DC and sculpt your tone with the CTP-3 Cool Tube preamp, which delivers everything from shimmering highs to warm lows. An onboard tuner and Palathetic pickup ensure your amplified sound is always pitch-perfect and feedback-free.
Takamine chose the finest tonewoods to give the P5DC exceptional acoustic properties. The solid spruce top is lightweight yet durable, vibrating freely to generate bright, balanced tone with lush overtones. Rosewood back and sides provide warmth and projection. Together, these woods create resonance and sustain that fills the room. The all-wood construction also gives the P5DC a luxurious appearance, with wood grain visible through the glossy finish.
The P5DC’s cutaway makes the upper frets more accessible, ideal for leads and solos. Its asymmetrical mahogany neck has a slimmer profile on the bass side, conforming to the natural shape of your hand. The slim, fast neck and cutaway combine for effortless navigation across the 20-fret rosewood fingerboard. Dot inlays help you quickly identify frets, while a bone nut and split saddle provide accurate intonation for chords that ring true.
Takamine’s CTP-3 preamp gives you total control over your amplified tone. It features a tube-emulating circuit that warms your sound, adjustable via a single knob. A 3-band EQ helps you tweak the highs, mids and lows, with a semi-parametric midrange for focused changes. You’ll also find an auxiliary input for blending in a second pickup, a volume control and built-in tuner. The CTP-3 pairs with Takamine’s Palathetic pickup for natural, feedback-resistant sound.
With elegant touches like ivoroid binding, an abalone rosette and gold tuners, the P5DC looks as good as it sounds. The binding adds structural strength while highlighting the spruce and rosewood tonewoods. An abalone rosette encircles the soundhole, reflecting different colors in the light. Gold tuners provide smooth, accurate tuning and a classic appearance. All these appointments reinforce that the P5DC is a professional-level instrument.
