Nylon stringed classical guitars have an ageless appeal regardless of the genre of music you play.

Classical players require a larger string spacing to accommodate their precise finger style playing. Combined with the smooth, full tone of nylon strings, these guitars will meet the needs of demanding classical & flamenco players alike. Coincidentally, classical guitars have found a home with beginners due to the easy on the fingers feel of the low tension nylon strings. Regardless of your ability, a Washburn C5CE classical guitar will help you reach the loftiest of musical goals.
