Sweetwater knows that the choice of top wood can make or break the sound of a nylon-string guitar. For the CGX102, Yamaha chose a spruce top.

And because it's a solid-wood top, the tone of your Yamaha CGX102 will age gracefully with enhanced harmonics and greater tonal balance as the years go by.
System 68N preamp offers versatile tone control
A natural tonal reproduction in a classical guitar preamp is important, and the System 68N preamp delivers. The Yamaha contact pickup and precision tuner keep you sounding your best. With such tonal clarity and advanced amplification, the Yamaha CGX102 is an ideal classical guitar for live performance.
