This beautiful classical guitar from Yamaha has classic features you'd find on expensive classical guitar models, yet is offered at a surprisingly low price. The Yamaha CG182C's full-size classical body gives lots of bold tone balanced from lows to highs, with a slight emphasis on the mid-range for added punch. The Yamaha guitar has plenty of projection to fill a small room with the soft, intimate sound of a classical nylon-string guitar. The classical guitar's top features solid American cedar, a wood that emits the sensitive tone frequently recommended for fingerstyle and light flatpicking. The nato neck, and rosewood back, and sides provide the force behind this instrument's tone, bringing out the deep sound of nylon strings. The rosewood bridge and ebony fretboard add crisp sustain and clarity to your chords. Dressed in a gloss finish, and featuring a mosaic-design rosette, gold hardware and white mother-of-pearl peg tuners, the Yamaha CG182C guitar embodies the appearance of the classical guitar, yet is priced for anyone to own. Drawing upon the vast knowledge, know-how and techniques of its master craftsmen, Yamaha developed the Concert series to deliver the best tone and performance from a classical guitar. With slightly thinner back and sides and Yamaha's trademark thin finish, the classical guitar delivers better sound response. To increase playability the Yamaha CG182C guitar neck was slightly thinned and also, made slightly lighter in weight. The result is a gorgeous classical guitar that delivers a tone with exceptional quality and is built from the ground up for durability and performance. • MFSKU CG182C • UPC 086792941066
