Classical Guitars

The classical guitar originated from Spain back in the 1800s. It is considered the foundation of all modern guitars. Antonio Torres first developed classical guitars using a "fan-strutting" style to create an improved sound distribution and strength. Although his technique is still being used by guitar makers today, most designs have improved tone quality.

The Brazilian or Indian rosewoods are often used as the body, cedar for the neck, and silka-spruce or cedar for the top. Perfectly designed classical guitars create a deep, rich, and melodious sound. The strings are made of nylon, which make it easier to strum.

First, you need to try playing every string and listen for frets that don’t function well. Defective guitars produce a flustering sound. Each string should flawlessly play on every fret.

Test the action of the strings against the frets. Play bar chords to make sure appropriate pressure. Also check the tuning pegs. Try tapping the guitar’s front in a number of spots to avoid getting lifeless sounds. The edge should also be examined and take a closer look at the sound hole. Check if the wooden braces are straight, precise, and properly located.

Classical guitars come in different brands and prices ranging from $3,000 to $20, 000. Some units created by a special group of guitar makers are priced at $1,000 to $10,000. Anything below $100 is likely to lack quality. Don’t disappoint yourself from buying cheap guitars by making sure you view photos of your classical guitar or play it before you buy.
