The RCE125MMSN is a solid, affordable classical guitar-electric hybrid. It's fantastic for students, gigging musicians needing basic amplification, or anyone wanting a warm, comfortable classical tone. The all-mahogany build gives it a unique character and the Magus Pro pickup is surprisingly functional for the price.

Frequently Asked Questions
It's better than many you'll find at this price point; it’s relatively clean, but don’t expect a high-end acoustic pickup’s nuance.
The neck is relatively slim and comfortable, but the 48mm nut width takes some getting used to if you're coming from a narrower steel-string neck.
It's relatively soft, so it's prone to minor scratches and dings, but a light coat of wax will help protect it.
