Yamaha CGS102A Classical Guitar

New bracing pattern, thinner bridge plate

The new CG series features a new bracing pattern that delivers excellent response and rich resonance. These guitars also feature a bridge plate that efficiently transfers string vibration to the guitar top.

Top Material

All models in the new CG series lineup are available with a spruce or cedar top. You can choose the top according to your preferences for tone or wood texture.

• Spruce: Clear fundamental tone. Massive tone with great variation according to touch. Tone improves as the wood matures.
• Cedar: Bridge, warm tone. Excellent response with relatively thick treble. Cedar offers a mature tone with little change over time, providing a high level of consistency

Stable Neck Condition

The necks of these instruments utilize a strong 3-ply laminate design the resists warping and twisting. This design improves neck strength, offers greater stability against shape change over time, and allows lower string height.

The matte finish on the back of the neck allows the left hand to move smoothly while also providing a secure grip. Also applied to the bridge for a similar effect, the finish is applied with a thin coat that contributes to improved resonance.

Saddle fit

Years of experience and original technologies have brought improvements to our saddle and slot design. Crafting these components with great precision provides a highly accurate fit that improves attack and sustain while reducing string vibration loss, to transfer rich resonance to the body.

Yamaha's most reasonably priced classical guitar offers a rich tone that beginners will find inspiring.
