Frequently Asked Questions
The all-solid models will offer more nuanced overtones and a richer overall tone, but the laminated ziricote still provides a pleasing, balanced sound at a more accessible price point.
The 52mm nut width is standard for classical guitars, which some players with larger hands might find a little snug, but the Sapele neck’s shape is generally accommodating.
The Alhambra generally has a slightly warmer and more mellow tone than the Yamaha, which tends to be a bit brighter and more focused. Both are excellent choices, it comes down to personal preference.
