When it comes to musical instruments, you can't get any more reliable and dependable than a name like Yamaha... and their classical and nylon stringed guitars are no exception. Every beginner guitarist deserves a chance to perfect their craft on an instrument that's low on tension, and high in sound quality and playability. With Yamaha, you can have peace of mind knowing that the classical guitar you're playing has been crafted by passionate experts of the instrument who use only the finest woods and materials. For over a hundred years, Yamaha has been renowned and respected for making instruments that epitomize quality and value. Throughout Yamahas extensive line of classical and nylon guitars, you'll find a wide range of different styles and designs for both novice players and experienced professionals alike.
For a great beginner's model, the Yamaha CGS Student classical guitar comes highly rated to those interested in learning the ins and outs of the classical guitar technique. Available in a selection of sizes to suit all players, this guitar features meranti back and sites, a spruce top, a rosewood bridge and fingerboard, and comes at a great price. Yamaha also constructs acoustic-electrics, and the Yamaha SLG110N silent acoustic-electric guitar allows players to practice with headphones, yet enjoy the realistic tone of an acoustic instrument. Portable, comfortable, and inspiring, this guitar is great for players who want to practice into the later hours without disturbing anyone else that's nearby.
For young music lovers, a nylon stringed classical guitar is a great starting point. The lower tension of a nylon string is easy on smaller fingers, which makes chords a lot easier to grip and form than a regular stringed guitar. Like all Yamaha instruments, their classical and nylon guitars have a warm tone, great projection, and overall make an exceptional choice for classical guitarists at any skill level.
