Yamaha CG142S Nylon-string Acoustic Guitar at a Glance:

• Solid Engelmann spruce top for great sound
• Full-width nut for true classical spacing
• Ideal for Beginners

Solid Engelmann spruce top for great sound
Musiekwereld knows that the choice of top wood can make or break the sound of a nylon-string guitar. For the CG142S, Yamaha chose a solid Engelmann spruce top. Chosen as much for its look as its tone, solid Engelmann spruce has a rich sound with excellent projection. And because it’s a solid-wood top, the tone of your Yamaha CG142S will age gracefully, with enhanced harmonics and greater tonal balance as the years go by.

Full-width nut for true classical spacing
The Yamaha CG142S offers a 2″ nut width that allows you to play using true classical techniques. Unlike many guitars in this price range, the CG142S gives you full spacing for executing proper rest strokes and free strokes. This larger width also makes complex fingerings easier on the fretboard.

Ideal for Beginners
From the full size to the great price, the Yamaha CG142S is perfect for beginners. Whether you’re new to classical nylon-string guitars, or have never played a guitar in your life, the CG142S gives you the right balance of playability, durability, and great sound.
