Why choose it

The No.20 combines traditional classical guitar construction with modern manufacturing consistency. Its laminated woods resist warping and cracking in changing humidity, while the high gloss finish protects the body and enhances the natural grain. The 52 mm nut width provides ample spacing for fingerstyle playing and chord work, and the rosewood fingerboard offers a smooth, familiar feel. Nylon strings are gentle on fingertips, making this guitar an excellent choice for new players building calluses and for those who prefer the mellow, rounded tone of a true classical instrument.

Good to know

The Alvaro Guitars No.20 is set up for right-handed players and ships with nylon strings installed. Because it has no truss rod, string tension should be maintained within standard classical guitar ranges. The traditional mosaic rosette and black ABS binding give it a timeless appearance that looks at home in any setting. A lightweight, full-size body and standard 650 mm scale length ensure compatibility with most classical guitar cases and accessories.
