Having had a classical guitar education since my early adolescent years, I have a very fond appreciation for nylon string guitars. This option, at this price, is terrific value for experts and beginners alike. The build is so smooth and has a very nice finish, it feels sturdy without feeling heavy, and light enough to be carried around by teenagers and adults alike. It's also not prohibitively small nor large, allowing most hand sizes, like the small ones I have, to be able to hit all notes (even the dreaded F#) without difficulty.
I also can't overstate how nice it sounds. It has a beautiful, airy feel to it that only the best nylon classical guitars can have, and the strings that come with the guitar are perfect to start playing it as soon as the guitar arrives and is tuned.
I've been playing classical guitar for decades, and this was a great choice to jump back in after a hiatus of a couple of years. Whether you are looking to help a growing kid learn a new art from scratch, looking to start playing classical guitar yourself, or are an advanced maestro needing a spare nylon guitar somewhere, this choice is incredible value for the money. I love it!

I is a kick _ss classical guitar.
First of all, I need to say I'm not professional guitarist. I am like a campfire guitarist. I have some reviews here. This not an average acoustic guitar. It is a classical guitar. It has great sound if you know how to play it. It does not have a pick guard, nor an adjustable truss rod. Not many classical guitars do. Do your research first. I think this thing is phenomenal. I received with some blemishes on the face of it. It's not perfect for classical orchestra, but it did not cost $1000+, as some classical guitars can. Even if you are an expert guitarist, You should try this one "classical". It's a basic machine, with nylon strings, but the sound is phenomenal.Update: 8/24/2004. This has become one of my fave guitars. It's light weight, I added a strap to it, so I can stand and play it. Hey! I can drill holes in my guitars, and put strap buttons on, if I want to. I'm thinking about getting another one, to keep at work, so I can play at lunchtime. The finish on this guitar, is not perfect, but it plays very well.
