Sound & Tone
The solid spruce top over black walnut back and sides gives this classical a warm, articulate voice with clear note definition, balanced resonance and natural sustain. The 650mm scale and wide 51mm nut provide the string spacing traditional fingerstyle and classical repertoire demand, while the cutaway body and mahogany neck also make room for hybrid picking. With TP-4T electronics offering a tuner, three-band EQ and gain control, it moves easily from solo practice to amplified stage work where nylon-string clarity needs to carry.
