The GA5TCE3Q features a ¾-sized thinline classical body with a Venetian cutaway constructed of a laminated spruce top on laminated sapele sides and back with a gloss finish. The soundhole is round with a classical mosaic decal rosette. The okume neck joins the body at the 12th fret and has an 18-fret purpleheart fingerboard with only side position markers. Components include an ivory plastic saddle in a purpleheart bridge, a plastic nut, chrome classical tuning machines, and coated nylon strings.
The GA5TCE3Q’s electronics consist of an Ibanez under saddle pickup mated to an AEQ-TP2 preamp with onboard tuner powered by a 9V battery and feeding a ¼” stereo output.
