It™s in this field that the Santos Martinez skilled craftsmen excel, they are experts in the art of making outstanding nylon strung classical and electro-classical guitars, highly respected by amateur, semi-professional and professional players around the world for their playability, visual appeal and exceptional tonal qualities.   

The Santos Martinez Estudio Classic features a solid spruce soundboard, and with a back and sides crafted from sapele, the Estudio is a beautiful example.

Fine illustrations of this respected company™s attention to detail include, black bindings, attractive multi-bound purfling, a capped heal, detailed rosette inlay, profile-contoured capped headstock with engraved SM logo, and chrome-plated machine heads with white buttons. 

Whilst the Estudio classic is visually stunning, it™s from the choice of these finest tonewoods that this gorgeous instrument delivers excellent bass, mid-range and treble response.

Sapele is the tonewood choice for the body, with tonal characteristics leaning towards mahogany, whilst due to its hardness, is a little brighter in the sonic spectrum and, when paired with the bright percussive sound of the solid spruce soundboard™s is a fine choice for both classical and flamenco players who want to reach up and over castanets and stomping heels.

A joy to play at home, in the studio or in concert, the Santos Martinez Estudio Classic with a beautiful natural satin finish performs way beyond its price point. Ideal for students progressing within classical guitar tuition, or indeed, for electric and steel-strung guitarists making the move to classical.
