The El Clásico 62 is a full-size Spanish guitar built for players who want authentic classical sound and solid construction at an accessible price. It pairs traditional craftsmanship with modern-day comfort, delivering a warm, nuanced tone that beginners and experienced players alike will appreciate.
Solid spruce, built to open up
The top is solid spruce — not laminate — which gives the guitar a more open, dynamic, resonant voice that continues to develop as the instrument is played in. Sapele back and sides add warmth, depth and a striking figure to the wood. Together they produce a classic tonal character with clear attack response and a natural balance between bass and treble.
Neck and playability
The El Clásico 62 has a nato neck with a Classical C profile that sits naturally and stably under the fingers. With a 50.6 mm nut width, particular care has gone into making this a guitar that feels comfortable and easy to play for a wide range of guitarists — including those coming from steel-string or electric backgrounds. The width still leaves plenty of room for precise fingerstyle work without ever feeling wide or unwieldy. This isn't a crossover model — it keeps the classical Spanish playing feel intact while opening the door to a broader range of players. The satin-finished neck stays comfortable through long practice sessions, without ever feeling tacky under the hand.
Materials and details
The fretboard and bridge are rosewood, contributing both visual beauty and a rich, organic voice. White side markers make orientation on the fretboard easy, and chrome-plated tuners keep tuning stable. The top is finished with a wood-mosaic rosette, while techwood and black binding give the guitar a refined, understated look.
A natural finish for an honest sound
The silky satin finish highlights the wood's natural character and lets the tone breathe freely — no heavy lacquer damping the resonance, just a clean, open, honest voice. The result is a guitar that feels alive under the fingers and rewards the player with every note.
Built for the serious student and the dedicated player
The El Clásico 62 is a guitar that grows with you. It's equally at home in lessons, at home, or in the studio, offering both comfort and tone well beyond its class. A classical guitar for anyone who wants authentic sound and craftsmanship without compromise — and who appreciates the perfect balance between tradition and modern comfort.
