A "Stage" in the classical spirit, designed for playing plugged in
The Principio Stage CA-PM-SB incorporates the fundamentals of the classical guitar (nylon strings, playing comfort, elegant aesthetics) while adding performance-oriented choices. The matte microporous finish, made with a water-based varnish, emphasizes a more "wooden" feel under the hand while allowing the instrument to breathe. The integration of discreet electronics and a cutaway makes it a modern classical, designed to easily transition from the living room to the stage.
Who is the Principio Stage CA-PM-SB for?
This guitar is aimed at beginner to intermediate guitarists who want a rewarding, comfortable, and versatile instrument, as well as musicians who need a classical guitar ready to be plugged in (rehearsals, stage, church, live recording). The nylon strings naturally suit the classical repertoire, bossa, fingerstyle, and song accompaniment. The cutaway is a real plus if you explore solos or higher positions while maintaining the sonic identity of a classical guitar.
Sound
The solid spruce top provides a quick and clear response: the attack stands out well, notes remain distinct, and projection gains life as you play. The sapelli (used for the back and sides) promotes a balance useful for accompaniment, with present midrange and homogeneous chord reproduction. The microporous finish often enhances the sensation of "direct" vibration, pleasant for nuanced touch and dynamic work. When amplified, the ETC-4 preamp allows fine adjustment of the sound according to the room: boosting bass, controlling brightness, or taming certain frequencies, while maintaining quick tuning thanks to the built-in tuner.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To preserve the original feel and balance, plan on a set of Hannabach 600HT nylon strings with Sol3 Carbon, identical to those originally mounted on this series.
