Buying Advice on Classical Guitars

Obviously one of the most important factors will be the price. If you pay more you should expect a better instrument, but why? By appearance many instruments are similar.

a) The expertise of the maker and the degree to which the instruments are hand made are of major importance for the development of tonal quality. This should also facilitate playing i.e.with a comfortably shaped neck and string height.

b) The woods used will usually be of superior quality in a more expensive instrument. They will usually have less laminated materials and the quality and age of the woods should be better. For classical instruments rosewood is generally considered to be the best wood for the back and sides.

You should select a guitar with a TONE, PLAYABILITY, and APPEARANCE that suit. One that you, yourself like!
