Classical Guitars
The classical guitar, used in classical music pieces, is one of many guitars that has evolved and changed. Differing musical compositions, styles of play, and materials of construction differentiate the classical guitar from other guitars. With roots dating back as far as four centuries, contemporary classical guitars let you play beautiful music.
What are the features of classical guitars?The classical guitar is an acoustical wooden guitar with the following features:
- Strings: These guitars use soft nylon strings.
- Body: The eight-figure shape is a classical body shape. It has a scale length of 26 inches and an overall length of 38 inches to 40 inches.
- Frets: Classical guitars have 12 frets.
Classical guitars are stringed instruments constructed of various woods that are chosen for their grain qualities, stiffness, and finished tone. Different woods can be used to construct each part of the guitar, including the neck and head, fingerboard, top, sides, back, and bridge. Some of the types of wood used to construct classical guitars include:
- Ebony
- Rosewood
- Mahogony
- Blackwood
- Spruce
Classical guitars use nylon strings that produce a soft sound. Nylon strings have replaced the cat gut strings that were used on earlier classical guitars. Nylon strings are also softer on the fingers and allow you to use your fingers as picks. The string-load tension on a classical guitar is somewhat low, allowing the player to easily press the strings to the fretboard.
How can you store a classical guitar?Because a classical guitar is a finely tuned instrument crafted from natural wood, it is important to store it properly to preserve the guitar. Proper storage techniques include:
- 1. Ideally, keep the guitar stored at a steady temperature of 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit and at a 45% to 55% humidity.
- 2. Never leave the guitar near a dry heat or dry air source. You should also avoid leaving the guitar near any water source indoors or outdoors Both of these steps help to maintain a proper humidity level for the guitar.
- 3. When not in use, store the guitar in a well-fitted case with a weather seal and hard-shell exterior. When traveling with the guitar in the case for long periods of time, you might consider placing a two-way humidification system within the case to prevent drying.
- 4. Use a chamois cloth to gently wipe down the finish of the wood to remove fingerprints and oils from your fingers and hands after playing.
