The Yamaha CGX122MS spruce-nato classical acoustic-electric guitar combines traditional design aesthetics and craftsmanship with modern innovations, resulting in exquisite tone and superb playability. It has a solid spruce top and nato back and sides, paired with a walnut fingerboard and bridge. Additional appointments include an elegant matte finish, fully integrated onboard pickup system for live performance or recording, and convenient built-in digital tuner. More than a half-century ago, Yamaha consulted legendary Spanish classical guitar luthiers such as Manuel Hernandez and Eduardo Ferrer in the pursuit of building world-class guitars, and all present-day Yamaha classical guitars are firmly based upon that original foundation.
