Yamaha CG142C Classical Guitar w/ Solid Western Red Cedar Top (Gloss)

Drawing from over half a century of Spanish luthier tradition, the Yamaha CG series represents the pinnacle of classical guitar craftsmanship, combining time-honoured techniques with modern innovation. These instruments trace their lineage back to legendary Spanish master luthiers Eduardo Ferrer, who studied under the celebrated 19th-century guitar maker Antonio de Torres, and Manuel Hernandez, whose technical instruction formed the foundation of Yamaha’s classical guitar heritage.

The CG series showcases rich tonal qualities with enhanced volume, superior tone quality and responsive playability through its comfortable neck design and optimal string height. Each model features solid tops paired with carefully hand-selected tone woods for backs and sides, ensuring consistent quality across the range. The meticulous construction follows precise specifications developed by Yamaha’s highly skilled craftspeople.

Available in multiple configurations, the CG series offers various body styles, tone wood combinations, and finish options including both gloss and matte treatments. Selected models incorporate pickup and preamp systems for amplified performance. The Yamaha CG142C stands out as exceptional value, featuring a solid western red cedar top and rosewood fingerboard that combines outstanding sound with excellent playability.
