Classic Cantabile - Simply Sounds Better!
The AS-851 is perfect for beginners and advanced guitarists! Whether for music lessons, band practice, live on stage or around the campfire: This guitar will bring you joy everywhere!
The Classic Cantabile AS-851 - the perfect beginner or second instrument
The Classic Cantabile AS-851 is ideally suited for guitar beginners. With a scale length of 55 cm, the instrument is perfectly tailored to children aged about 5 to 9 years. Of course, adult beginners also benefit from the easy playability of the AS-851.
Selected Materials - Clean Craftsmanship
Only carefully selected materials are used for AS-851 guitars. The laminated top and body produce a beautiful, warm tone, and the neatly crafted bridge transmits the string vibrations in detail even with a gentle finger touch. The smooth tuning machines also ensure optimal tuning stability.
A Sound That Speaks For Itself!
Especially for beginners, it is important that learning is enjoyable. A guitar must not only be functional to guarantee optimal learning success, but the sound must also not be neglected. The AS-851 models provide plenty of fun with their expressive tone and also allow a good assessment of one’s own playing style.
Classic Look
The AS-851 impresses visually with its light natural top and dark tinted body. The elaborately crafted rosette, the beautiful decorated tuning machines, and the discreet headstock complete the overall visual impression.
Which Guitar Size Is Right?
The scale length indicates the size of a guitar—or more precisely: the length of the vibrating string between nut and bridge. The standard scale length is 650 mm and corresponds to a 4/4 guitar. All other sizes are smaller and are therefore recommended for children and adolescents.
Our Recommendations for the Scale Length Matching Age and Height:
| 1/4 Size | Ages 4 to 7 years | Height up to 110 cm | Scale approx. 47-49 cm |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1/2 Size | Ages 5 to 9 years | Height 110 to 130 cm | Scale approx. 53-55 cm |
| 3/4 Size | Ages 8 to 11 years | Height 120 to 140 cm | Scale approx. 59-62 cm |
| 7/8 Size | Ages 10 to 13 years | Height 130 to 150 cm | Scale approx. 62-63 cm |
| 4/4 Size | Ages from approx. 14 years | Height from approx. 150 cm | Scale approx. 63-65 cm |

I unpacked them when they arrived.
And I absolutely love the color and feel of it.
As for the sound, I'll listen to it for my birthday.
My grandson will be so happy because he wanted a guitar 🎸.
I can't describe the shining eyes.
But it was super quick and easy from order to delivery.
Thank you for that. LG

Questions about product
Question by Eva Birgmeir on 26.11.2021

Question by Uh13erz on 16.06.2020
Hello. what strings are strung? For children's guitars? or how to tune the guitar?
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
There are low-tension strings strung. This is a lower gauge so that the children do not have to grip so tightly. The guitar is tuned E-A-D-G-H-E.
Question by Ferrer rueda on 10.04.2020
I am a 57 year old man, I have always liked to play the guitar but I have never dared to because I don't know music scores. But I know many people who don't know either and they play it very well. Now with this virus I have time to teach myself a little. This guitar would be a decade for me? Thanks a greeting.
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
The guitar is very suitable for beginning guitar players. However, I would recommend the adult size: https://www.kirstein.de/Konzertgitarren-fuer-Erwachsene/Classic-Cantabile-Acoustic-Series-AS-851-Klassikgitarre-4-4.html
