Altamira - Basico CE 4/4

The Altamira Basico CE 4/4 is designed for guitarists looking for a serious first classical guitar, capable of supporting beginners without becoming limiting after a few months. Behind its sober, satin-finish aesthetic lies a design conceived to make learning more enjoyable and more inspiring from the very first sessions.

Its central element remains its solid cedar table. It does most of the work on the sound: it reacts quickly under the fingers with a direct response and a warm attack, particularly pleasant for working on nuances and dynamics. With time and hours of playing, the wood evolves naturally and allows the instrument to breathe more, gradually enriching its sonic personality.

The African mahogany back, sides and neck create a balanced sound that's comfortable to play, while the Indian rosewood fingerboard ensures a fluid feel under the fingers. The 650 mm scale and 52 mm nut are based on the standards of the classical 4/4 guitar, with space for the right hand and positions specific to the classical repertoire.

Its cutaway format adds real comfort for accessing the high frets, which also opens the door to more modern styles. Thanks to the built-in preamp, this Basico CE can easily be moved from a practice session to an amplified rehearsal or a small stage. Classical, bossa nova, Spanish music, acoustic arrangements or fingerstyle: this is a guitar designed for learning, exploring and gaining confidence as you play.
