Meet Your New Nylon-string Companion
There are few better guitars to begin your nylon-string journey than the Fender CN-60S, an instrument giving you the lush, gentle sound of a classical guitar in a form factor that’s instantly accessible to steel-string guitarists and complete beginners. This guitar’s mahogany back and sides support a solid spruce top complete with traditional fan bracing, a premium-level feature that imparts your every rest or free stroke with a dynamic feel and deep projection. Moreover, Sweetwater guitarists agree the walnut-topped mahogany neck’s slim “Easy-to-play” profile, friction-free rolled edges, and reduced 1.69-inch nut width make the CN-60S perfect for aspiring students with smaller hands or guitarists after the classical sound without committing to a chunky, ultra-wide neck. Whether you’re seeking a quality first instrument for your student or a nylon-string companion to complement your steel-string acoustic, you’ll be sure to love the Fender CN-60S nylon-string classical guitar’s playability and rich, responsive tone.
Classically fan-braced solid spruce top
The Fender CN-60S’s solid spruce top is a must-have feature for the serious guitarist, supplying you with the touch-sensitive responsiveness crucial for any classical guitarist. From working through pieces in the classical canon to flamenco-inspired strumming, this top truly makes the most out of your playing. Moreover, it’s supported by true-blue classical fan bracing that improves your low-end and makes for a richer overall tone.
Classical sound, steel-string playability
For most classical and nylon-string guitarists, a guitar with a wide nut is imperative — classical guitars most commonly sport a nut width of a full two inches. However, that wide width can be off-putting to beginners, especially younger students whose hands are still growing. The Fender CN-60S solves this issue with a slimmer 1.69-inch nut width, giving you more than enough room to maneuver your fingers, but retaining a much more comfortable feel for beginners and guitarists coming from a steel-string background. Finally, the CN-60S also boasts Fender’s slim “easy-to-play” neck shape with comfortable rolled edges, another feature guaranteed to inspire any player on their 6-string journey.
