TAKAMINE AC/EL NEW YORKER SATIN MOLASSES GUITAR

Takamine GY21E SM – New Yorker Acoustic/Electric Guitar (Satin Molasses)

Takamine’s New Yorker–shape guitars are renowned for their comfort, balanced tone, and excellent control in live performance situations. The compact body design delivers impressive volume with minimal playing effort, making it an ideal choice for singer-songwriters, fingerstyle players, and performers seeking a responsive, easy-to-manage instrument on stage.

The GY21E SM features a solid spruce top paired with mahogany (sapele) back and sides, producing a warm, midrange-focused tone with strong fundamentals and fewer excessive overtones than larger-bodied guitars. The result is a clear, articulate sound that sits beautifully in a mix.

Finished in Takamine’s popular Satin Molasses finish, this guitar offers a warm, roots-inspired aesthetic. For live use, the onboard TP-3G electronics provide reliable amplification, tone shaping, and tuning convenience, making this a ready-to-perform acoustic/electric package.
