Compact Classical Guitars!
The CS40 was specially designed for young students, featuring a scale and compact body that offer excellent playing comfort. Combined with outstanding playability and superb tone, this becomes an instrument that keeps practicing inspiring and exciting.
Younger guitarists often struggle with the dimensions of a full-size guitar. That’s now a thing of the past. To prevent practice from turning into frustration, we developed the CS40. The reduced body size, paired with a 580mm scale length guarantees comfortable handling and ensures motivation and plenty of playing fun. A spruce top and back and side elements made of Meranti give the guitar – despite its smaller size – a full, balanced sound. And of course, a high-quality rosewood fretboard is part of the excellent beginner model’s equipment, just like a solid rosewood bridge.
