Nylon strings are also softer on your fingers, making the classical guitar a great starting point for those just beginning.
About Classical Guitar Strings:
Albert Augustine, an instrument maker from New York, USA, was the first to produce guitar strings in nylon. According to Rose Augustine,[1] his wife, he was unable to secure source materials due to the war restrictions and happened upon nylon line in an army surplus store in Greenwich Village. When initially approached by him the Dupont company, who manufactured the material, were unconvinced that guitarists would accept nylon’s sonic characteristics. Augustine staged a blind test with company representatives from DuPont, they happened to choose nylon over gut as having the best “guitar sound”. The DuPont company then supported Augustine’s initiative. Augustine classical guitar strings were first commercially manufactured in 1948, in conjunction with Olinto Mari, President of E.& O. Mari/La Bella Strings at their factory in Long Island City New York.
VOX have been building some of the World’s Best Sounding and most loved Guitar Amplifiers for a very long time. Although some talk about “that” Vox tone, the truth is the recognized players that have embraced Vox Amplification have made “that” tone their “own”, with their “own” sound…Hank Marvin, Rory Gallagher, Brian May, Primus, Train…instantly recognisable and every one unique…the mark of a great amplifier is that it should inspire the player to find their own voice. Vox build their amplifiers to do just that. An extraordinarily versatile amplifier, the Vox Valvetronix VT40+ offers a combination of great valve amp tones and state-of-the art modeling technology.
Vox’s12AX7 tube-powered Valve Reactor circuit is one of the best in the business and accurately recreates the signature tones of 33 different classic amp models and pairs them with 25 different studio quality effects to create 99 distinctive preset programs. Â The preset programs include 33 superb amp models, including the entire lineage of Vox amplifiers as well as several essential classics and rare boutique amps…and they sound great! 33 effected amp models combine these amps with the most popular effects including chorus, flanger, delay, reverb and tremolo, and 33 song presets that recreate the specific sounds used on the classic tracks. 8 user presets give you the additional versatility of creating your own sounds and storing them for instant access in the studio or on the stage.
The comprehensive Gain, Volume Treble, Middle, Bass and Master controls give you absolute tone shaping abilities over each amps model while Depth and Speed let you dial in your effects to perfection. From large all-valve amps to mini transistor amps — the Valvetronix Series is acclaimed by the broadest range of musicians and is being used in the widest variety of musical scenarios today. Delivering the perfect fusion of great valve amp sounds and cutting-edge modeling technology, the original VOX Valve Reactor circuitry made its sensational debut in 2001 as the guitar amp for the 21st century. Since then, it has undergone continual renewal in response to current developments in amps, and in order to flexibly meet today’s needs. This current Vox Valvetronix+ series is once again confirmed as powerfully dynamic, offering a larger number of highly evolved amp models than ever before.
Valve (Tube) powered VOX Valve Reactor Circuit Guitarists love the power and playability delivered by a valve amp. Based on a 12AX7 vacuum tube, the Valve Reactor circuit at the heart of every Valvetronix+ Series amp perfectly reproduces the operation, subtle nuances, and tonal character of a real valve-powered amp.
Thirty Three Virtual Amp Models The Valvetronix+ VT40+ offers an amazing collection of 33 distinct amp models. The preamp EQ features Bass, Middle and Treble controls for precise tone-shaping. Beginning with classic VOX amps such as the AC30, the diverse amp model selection continues to encompass coveted amps from the pages of history, as well as high-gain amps, providing a sound selection that spans the ages.

click on the image to enlarge Yamaha’s roots are based in Music and their reputation is crowned with an unwerving level of excellence in everything that they do. Regardless of which Yamaha Workshop and instrument is built in – it is always “made in Yamaha”. SPANISH HERITAGE It’s a well lknown fact amongst “those in the know” that much of the knowledge, techniques and basic designs used in creating Yamaha’s classical guitars were gained under the tutelage of two of the World’s most prominent Master Guitar Makers of the day (today we just call them Luthiers), Snr. Eduardo Ferrer and Snr. Manuel Hernandez (Hernandez y Aguado). Yamaha indentured their finest craftsmen to study under the tutelage of Eduardo Ferrer where they learned the time honoured and traditional way to create truly fine acoustic guitars…some say the “only” way. The knowledge and experience gained from these Apprenticeships led to the introduction of Yamaha’s renowned Grand Concert series guitars. The owner of South Coast Music, John Kuts was fortunate enough himself, to have been given a Yamaha No. 100 all solid construction, Hand Made Classical Guitar by his Parents in the early 1970’s which he treasures to this day. Yamaha then went on to further their knowledge under the guidance of the celebrated Spanish Guitar Building Master, Snr. Manuel Hernandez, who provided invaluable technical assistance to the Yamaha Apprentices. This fruitful relationship led to further development and refinement of the Grand Concert series and gave Yamaha’s master craftsmen the knowledge and experience necessary to develop original models such as the highly sought after GC70.
click on the image to enlarge The knowledge that Snrs Ferrer and Hernadez shared, from the critical selection of materials for their tonal as well as aesthetic quality, right down to the fine art of finishing and polishing allowed Yamaha to cultivate the techniques and sensitivity it takes to make the finite adjustments and subtle modifications that traditional guitar production and the World’s Top Player’s demand. In this day of modern technology and computer controlled manufacturing, it is becoming increasingly harder to find the kind of reverence and dedication to traditional building methods that Yamaha’s master craftsmen possess. Yamaha are proud of the skills they have acquired and at southcoastmusic, we are proud to be able to offer for sale, the calibre of guitar that those skills have allowed Yamaha to create. DISCONTINUED (too expensive to produce) AND ULTRA-RARE! We have two only, brand new examples of the superb CS101C 3/4 size Classical Guitars left for sale. They are brand new, unplayed and represent real value-for-money for a serious, smaller sized Classical Guitar.
