A classical electro-acoustic designed for modern playing
The Classic Nylon Legend Mid Cutaway Natural fits within the "classic nylon" performance-oriented approach: comfortable luthiery, a cutaway to explore the upper neck, and integrated amplification for easy transition from living room to stage. Its Mid-depth format aims for a successful balance between playability and sound presence, while maintaining a sober and elegant look with a Natural finish.
For whom and in which styles?
This classical electro-acoustic guitar is suited for both intermediate and advanced players seeking a reliable, adjustable, and amplifiable nylon instrument, as well as demanding beginners looking for good comfort and warm tone. It is particularly suitable for classical, fingerstyle, pop/variety nylon accompaniments, as well as stage and home studio contexts thanks to its preamp with tuner.
The sound
The solid cedar top delivers a soft attack, a beautiful midrange density, and a sense of "maturity" from the very first notes, highly appreciated on a classical guitar. Combined with the mid-depth Lyrachord body, it promotes clear projection and well-controlled bass, with excellent clarity in arpeggios. The ebony fingerboard enhances precision and definition, while the pau ferro bridge contributes to overall balance. Plugged in, the combination of OCP-1K pickup and OP-Pro preamp highlights a clear sound, easy to adjust quickly, with the integrated tuner for stress-free tuning changes.
Recommended compatible accessories
To fully exploit the amplification, a good quality instrument jack cable is recommended. For maintenance and sound, medium to high tension nylon strings (like the original set) are a coherent choice with the nut width and the response of the cedar top.
