Nashville First Strum Classical
An easy-playing full-size classical for first lessons and every practice after, as a classical or an electro-classical.
The First Strum Classical is the full-size nylon-string guitar we would hand anyone starting out, and anyone who wants a dependable classical to play every day. A cedar top over mahogany back and sides gives a warm, rounded voice, and the satin finish feels smooth under the arm. A bone nut and saddle, rounded fret ends and a 2.05-inch (52 mm) nut width keep it comfortable, and every guitar is inspected and set up before it ships. Choose Cedar/Mahogany or Full Black with mahogany bindings and heel cap, as a classical or as an electro-classical with a built-in preamp and tuner. It comes in a heavy-padded 0.8-inch (20 mm) gig bag with neck support, with a Nashville cleaning cloth and an Allen key.
