Classical Guitars

The Classical Guitar - or Spanish Guitar as it's often known - has a wide flat fingerboard and the strings are nylon (top three bare nylon and lower three wound with wire over the nylon core). The common tuning is EADGBE and the tension of the strings is lower than on a metal strung acoustic guitar making it easier to fret and therefore more suitable for younger beginners. Classical Guitars tend not to have truss rods in the neck, so buy as good a quality guitar as you can afford. As well as an inexpensive range of student classical guitars in various sizes, Promenade Music's Classical guitar department now has a well deserved reputation for being one of the largest stockists in the North of England of fine, hand made, Spanish guitars. We often have up to 50 instruments in stock (from £50 up to around £3,000) from top makers including Mendieta which are fantastic value for money and the World renowned Ramirez brand. We also sell Flamenco Guitars and Electro Nylon Guitars as well as a full range of guitars including Electric Guitars, Jazz & Semi Guitars, Bass Guitars, Acoustic Guitars, Electro Acoustic Guitars, Graphite Guitars, Gypsy Jazz Guitars, Resonator Guitars, Classical Guitars, Pedal Steel Guitars, Lap Steel Guitars, Yamaha Silent Guitars and Lefthanded Guitars.
