The Santana Classical 20 Left SNA is a full-size left-handed classical guitar with cutaway, nylon strings and a built-in Double T6 preamp system. It is built in the traditional Spanish guitar style, but with modern features that make it easy to use with an amplifier, mixer, audio interface or PA system.
This makes it a good choice for left-handed beginners, students and more experienced players who want a nylon-string guitar for practice, lessons, home recording, rehearsals or smaller performances.
The guitar is made for left-handed playing from the start, with the strings, nut and setup arranged correctly for left-handed use. This gives a more natural playing experience than trying to convert a right-handed classical guitar. The cutaway design also gives easier access to the higher frets, making the guitar more flexible for melodies and playing further up the neck.
The Double T6 preamp system combines a piezo pickup with an internal microphone. The piezo pickup captures the direct sound of the strings, while the internal microphone adds more acoustic body and air to the amplified tone. Together, they give a more flexible plugged-in sound than a simple piezo-only system.
The preamp also includes a built-in tuner, so the guitar can be tuned quickly without an external tuner. Volume and body controls make it easy to adjust the amplified sound, whether the guitar is used for practice, lessons, live playing or recording.
The nylon strings feel softer on the fingertips than steel strings, which makes the guitar comfortable for beginners and useful for longer practice sessions. The warm and rounded nylon-string sound is well suited for classical pieces, chords, fingerstyle, folk music, Latin-inspired playing and relaxed acoustic songs.
With its full-size 39" body and 52 mm nut width, the Santana Classical 20 Left SNA gives a familiar classical guitar feel with good spacing between the strings. The side position markers at the 5th, 7th, 9th and 12th frets also make it easier to find your way around the fingerboard during practice.
The guitar features a laminated spruce top in a light natural satin finish, with nato back, sides and neck. The rosewood fingerboard and bridge, decorative wood mosaic rosette, black body binding and chrome tuning machines complete the traditional Spanish guitar look.
