An Entry-Level Classical... with a Solid Top
The Yamaha CG122MS is part of the new CG series and positions itself as an entry model into the world of classical guitar, with a rare advantage in this range: a solid top. It is also the only model with a matte finish in the series, giving it a unique identity, both elegant and discreet, while maintaining the "conservatory" spirit cherished by classical guitars.For Whom and Which Styles?
This guitar is primarily aimed at beginners and intermediate players who want a reliable classical guitar to progress: posture, precision, finger independence, and sound control. Its balanced character is perfect for classical music, arpeggios, bossa nova, light flamenco (rhythmic work), and chord accompaniment, with a clear and readable response.Sound
The heart of the sound comes from the solid Engelmann spruce soundboard, appreciated for its quick response and ability to convey playing nuances: precise attack, singing highs, and good note definition in fingerstyle. The nato back and sides provide a warm midrange and even projection, ideal for a balanced sound without excess. The rosewood fingerboard and bridge contribute to a stable feel under the fingers and a clear tone, with a pleasant natural sustain for melodies and studies.Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the best out of it, you can pair it with a classical guitar string set (nylon), a tuner (clip-on or pedal via external microphone), as well as a footrest or ergonomic support to work on posture in the classical position.Technical specifications
