Feature:
Very versitle pick-up and eQ.
Quality:
everything Alvarez makes is quality.
Sound:
I’ve played hundreds of Classicals over the years, literally. This ranks among the best. And for the price, it compares to some I have played that cost hundreds more, if not thousnads more. The pick up is awesome and allows for a variety of tones.
Ease of Use:
Super-easy even at loud volumes.
Support:
hard to track down alvarez co. had to deal with suplliers.

Meticulously designed to provide comfortable, easy playing for all styles, the C104 now comes standard with the B-Band A3 preamp. Featuring a solid cedar top and rosewood sides and back, the C104SCE has a rich, distinctive full-bodied tone. Washburn craftsmanship makes this cutaway model a favorite of classical artists, novice and expert alike.

Feature:
the wood is good quality for its construction. The pre amp pick up is real quality and playing it through a pa is an experience as my other classical is only acoustic
Value:
very good value for money
Sound:
It was a pleasure playing this guitar for the 1st time, i also own a predo seuz and the sound and playability was second to none. But i must say the sound quality of the Washburn is beautifull. i love it
Support:
i have not dealt with the company
Overall:
if the guitar was no longer in my possesion for whatever reason i would probably purchase a Dean classical ( as i’ve always wanted to try one)

Sound and playability are the two most important components in an instrument. But very few will deny that a standout visual aspect enhances your performance. The appearance and sound of the unique Exotic Wood Series were designed for the player who is looking for a completely new and different voice. You won

This Takamine Classic features a solid spruce top with a rosewood back and sides for a brilliant and rich classic tone. The EC132C is equipped with Takamine’s CT4B preamp, for ease of use and purity of tone. The CT4B consists of 3 bands of graphic EQ tone control, a volume control slider and a built-in chromatic tuner. The convenient built-in chromatic tuner is extremely accurate and very easy to use. The braces of the EC132C are patterned and voiced for today’s music.

Feature:
I was suprised to discover the on-board tuner. Really nice extra. Although I would have still gotten it without this feature.
Quality:
After I bought the guitar, I began looking for reviews on specifications and the like. The internet discribed the top, simply as ‘spruce’. So I thought maybe it wasn’t a solid top. It wasn’t until I read this review, many months latter, that I find it is a solid top. I always wanted a solid top.
Desirability:
high romance
Sound:
I play this in a local music store, and was really excited by what I heard. I compared the sound to a beautiful piano. I played more expensive guitars while I was there… Nothing matched the sound of this guitar.
Support:
NA
Overall:
I would be foolish to ever part with the instrument.
The G Series from Takamine has created great controversy. Play a G Series guitar and you’re apt to think it’s one of the finest acoustic/electrics made. That’s because it is.

Feature:
No accessories. Bought case seperately.
Value:
Easily worth twice the price.
Desirability:
Looks humble but plays like a champ.
Sound:
Crisp transient highs, full resonant lows, very easy to play. It’s a winner and worth twice the price.
Support:
No problems at all but I called with a few questions and they were prompt and courteous.
Overall:
I’ll never replace it. This is my classical electric for life.
When it’s time to plug in at an affordable price, there’s simply no better choice than the Ibanez GA nylon-string guitars.

For the players who love the sound of nylon strings, but don’t love the feel of the traditional wide classical neck, there’s the GA5TCE thinline.

Feature:
Not much features here… I don’t like the pickup that much.. It doesn’t sound that good at all. The tuners are horrible! they never stay in tune and kept creaking when I turned them.
Quality:
It’s not badly made, except there were a lot of fret buzzes after a few weeks of use. The frets appeared to be uneven in length and height (fret buzzes, some were sticking out of the fretboard just a tad)
Value:
It’s an average guitar for its price range… doesn’t exceed the expecations of a guitar under 300
Desirability:
It looks good… but when I play it I do get second thoughts
Sound:
For the sound, I would rate it a 6 when unplugged and an 8 when plugged in. It’s just not that good enough for what I thought was a reasonably priced guitar. I’ve owned it for almost a year now and the sound has changed into a deeper more mellow tone but the volume when unplugged has decreased too (Probably due to the smaller thin body.)
Support:
Never had to contact them, It’s only a $250 guitar. Cheaper to go to your local shop.
Overall:
I wouldn’t replace this one if stolen… I’d probably get a better, higher priced guitar. After a few months I outgrew it already so i’ts not a good guitar for those beginning classical.
