Begin Your Musical Journey with a Classy Instrument

Choosing a guitar for a beginner or emerging musician can be complicated. However, it never fails to start with an inspired instrument like this GA3 classical acoustic guitar from Ibanez. Built with contemporary tonewoods and ease of use in mind, the GA3 classical sports a perfect recipe for younger musicians: a lightweight body, spry movement around the strings, and traditional hardware functionality. Exemplary additions include a classic soundhole decal, nickel frets, a flat-radius fingerboard, and an open pore neck finish for seamless maneuverability. Finally, the GA3 classical's 25.5-inch scale length accommodates a variety of players, from young beginners to traveling classical enthusiasts. There's no question: if you're stuck on where to start on your musical path, the GA3 classical guitar is the right route to take.

Tried-and-true acoustic sound

Constructed from high-quality meranti wood and spruce, the GA3 bears traditional acoustic style and tone. Meranti is both rigid and lightweight, allowing it much easier travel and transport without giving up on volume — perfect for young musicians and beginner players. On the other hand, the guitar's spruce top brings tight, industry-standard sound to the table, ensuring the instrument performs as authentically as possible in the hands of any level guitarist. As far as a classical guitar to hone your beginner repertoire or an instrument to further your skills on the road, Sweetwater guitarists agree: the Ibanez GA3 classical guitar excels on both fronts.

Durable beginner-friendly fixtures

The GA3 classical guitars's appointments offer simple usability for beginner musicians and emerging young artists alike. The meranti wood neck features a dovetail joint and a high-quality finish for easy movement along all 19 frets. Furthermore, a nandu bridge with a plastic saddle provides reliable string positioning and facilitates seamless string changes. Up top, chrome classical-style tuning machines and a 52mm plastic nut ensure authentic tone and help keep the guitar in tune. The GA3 is rounded off with a natural solid gloss finish for enhanced maneuverability, a sightly appearance, and instrument protection.
