The C40 is the guitar that thousands of students around the world have learned to play on over many years.

Especially for beginners, having a strap can make the guitar easier to hold and control, and having an easy way to mount a strap would have been a real benefit. Almost every single thing about the C40 is inherited by the C40II, with a slight difference in the tonewood and hardware used. Most acoustic guitars use steel-based lines, which give them a louder brighter sound than traditional guitar strings. This guy is excellent to start off with, it's a full scale so if you have small or petite hands I suggest you move down to 3/4 scale. And, since the vast, vast majority of guitars made are non-left-hand models (and left-hand models tend to be more expensive than their non-left-hand equivalents), learning to play a standard non-left-hand guitar opens up more possibilities for the future.

There is nothing like having an inspiring teacher while learning to play the guitar, and many of the finest teachers recommend C40 and C70 nylon-string guitars for their students due to their outstanding combination of high quality and affordability.

Traditional nylon string guitars such as Yamaha’s C series are more prone to warping because there’s no steel truss rod in the neck. In turn, because it sounds so good, beginners often enjoy playing for longer at a time - helping them to progress.The C70 might be one of Yamaha's most inexpensive full-size classical models, but its quality and tone are outstanding. Changing the back and side woods is a smart choice by Yamaha to keep costs low given it is the guitar top (the choice of wood, its quality, and the bracing) which dictates most of the sound quality.

Using a nylon plectrum shouldn't cause any significant damage to the strings (which should be replaced relatively regularly in any case); however, be aware that classical guitars like the CS40 don't have a scratchplate/pickguard - and so there's an increased risk of a plectrum damaging the guitar's finish.

They also have a neck width similar to that of an electric guitar, and noticebly narrower than the neck of a classical guitar.The Yamaha C40 features a glossy body finish in a natural colour, giving it a stunning and elegant appearance. An alternative to the C40 Mk II would be our CG122 Classical Guitar - it's the same size as the C40 Mk II, but crucially it has a solid tonewood top.
