Product Description
Ibanez classical guitars take the guesswork out of finding an affordable, great-sounding classical guitar that's easy to fret and play. Whether you are looking for a traditional classical-sized instrument or a comfortable nylon-string beginner guitar, they are extremely well-constructed, affordable and have the pristine tonality and playability of much more expensive instruments.

Gorgeous instrument, the on-board electronics are fantastic, it's an inch slimmer than I expected from a classical guitar, but absolutely no difference in tone or volume, the tuning keys are superior, and plugged in, it's phenomenal.
I'm no rookie--been playing for 60 years and have 14 quality guitars in my collection, but I sold my Yamaha classical 40 years ago and regretted it ever since. I heard a few classical pieces a few months ago and thought I'd get back into it and believe me, this was the perfect guitar to do it. Except for a little glue over-run at the sound hole, it is pristine and I couldn't ask for a better playing experience.
I’m also 25 and 6’2 the guitar feels great in my hands if your worried about length.

It comes poorly assembled, probably because it is made in China, and the controller comes at the top when the Amazon photo shows that it comes at the bottom.

Ahora, una vez atajado el problema de las cuerdas, he de decir que es una guitarra de una calidad incuestionable y tiene un sonido buenísimo, especialmente conectada. Es una guitarra con una acción bastante bajita, por lo que es ideal para principiantes al no tener que apretar demasiado las cuerdas en los trastes. Hay muchas guitarras de este rango de precio que suelen tener las cuerdas muy altas y tensas, haciendo que llegue a ser doloroso el simple hecho de poner acordes. He de decir que esta guitarra tiene una acción perfecta y eso no os va a pasar, por lo que mientras os va saliendo el "típico" callo del guitarrista, no vais a sufrir tocando.
En cuanto a sonido, lo dicho. Es una guitarra que tiene una caja algo mas estrecha de lo normal, algo muy común en las guitarras que llevan pre-amplificadores. ¿Que quiere decir eso? Que, sin conectar, tiene algo menos de resonancia (es decir, suena con menos potencia) que guitarras que no tengan pre-amplificador, pero aun asi tiene un sonido muy bueno y que se escucha perfectamente (vaya, para el que toque en su casa tiene sonido de sobra). Sin embargo, el punto fuerte de esta guitarra es su pre-amplificador, que es lo que la hace distintas a las normales.
El pre-amplificador es muy completo. Tiene un afinador (por lo que no vas a necesitar llevar un afinador extra) que funciona muy bien. Tienes opción para resaltar los bajos, resaltar los agudos, tiene botón de phase (básicamente sirve para modificarlo en caso de que haya un "desfase" con los altavoces, aunque cambia ligeramente el sonido y puede que te guste mas en una u otra posición, independientemente del desfase)... En general, como digo, muy completo. Y que decir, suena perfectamente conectada. Yo la he probado personalmente en cierto amplificador de 10w que venden aquí mismo en Amazon y que, si alguien quiere saber, no tiene nada mas que escribirme o comentar este comentario (desconozco si se pueden poner enlaces a otros productos en las reviews, así que prefiero no arriesgar).
Dicho esto, para mi es una guitarra mas que recomendada para cualquiera, ya que puede servir tanto para personas que acaben de empezar como para personas que ya lleven un tiempo en el mundillo.
