Great-sounding and easy to play, the Takamine EG440SC acoustic-electric guitar features a solid spruce top on a NEX cutaway body made from mahogany. The EG440SC is equipped with the easy-to-use TP4T preamp sporting a 3-band graphic equalizer and built-in tuner. Rosewood fingerboard with abalone dot inlays and gold tuners are additional features usually only found on more expensive guitars.This NEX body is a signature Takamine design. The top has a pleasing, rounded profile that is narrow at the waist, yet broad behind the bridge creating a soundboard that offers a balanced frequency response with deep bass, clear treble, and a sweet, round midrange that projects well. The body carries the depth of a dreadnought to ensure a great level of volume. The NEX has the feel of a small-bodied guitar yet yields impressive performance, and is an excellent accompaniment to the singer-songwriter, or the finger-style player.
Pre amp
Providing all the flexibility and control you’d expect, the TP4T is a 3 band EQ preamp with bass, middle and treble controls, a tuner and a low battery indicator light which is activated when the battery falls below a certain voltage. Whether you are recording or playing live, great tone is guaranteed. The preamp is switched on by plugging a standard mono instrument cable into the endpin/strap pin jack. Unplugging the cable switches the preamplifier off. The TP4T Preamplifier is powered by a single 9 volt battery.
