The GA5MHTCE features a thinline classical body with a Venetian cutaway constructed of laminated sapele top, back, and sides with a gloss finish. The soundhole is round with a classical mosaic decal rosette. The okume neck joins the body at the 14th fret and has a 21-fret purpleheart fingerboard. Components include an ivory plastic saddle in a purpleheart bridge, a plastic nut, gold classical tuning machines and coated nylon strings.

The GA5MHTCEs 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 stereo output.
