Best Classical Guitars for Beginners

Many musicians started their musical journey on a classical guitar. While a lot of professionals will have one in their instrument arsenal, classical guitars are particularly well-suited for beginners as they feature silky nylon strings that are far less abrasive on the fingertips than the steel strings you'd find on acoustic guitars or electric guitars. This makes classical guitars particularly good for children who are keen to learn guitar, as they will experience less finger pain.

Brands like EastCoast, Valencia, Admira, Cordoba, and Fender make brilliant beginner classical guitars which are affordable yet well-made and easy to play. Some of the offerings from these companies even feature electronics, meaning that they can be amplified through a speaker system for recitals!
