Artist HG500CEQ Solid Cedar Top Classical Guitar with EQ

The Solid Cedar top gives it a really warm sound and uses Laminated Walnut for its back and sides. The guitar also features Laurel for its fretboard and bridge. The neck is made with 3 Ply Okoume. It also has a Spanish Heel. For those of you that don't know the Spanish heel is a much more difficult way of making a guitar but it greatly improves the sustain, on standard Classical guitars they often use dowels to attach the neck and a lot of tones can be lost through this joint.

The guitar also has a preamp with a built-in tuner.

As with all our solid top guitars we use a bone nut and saddle, the hardness of the bone allows great tone and sustain, the typical plastic nuts are quite soft and have the effect of deadening the sound.

Note: This guitar does not have strap buttons
