A smaller ¾ sized body has been chosen for this model. The result is a guitar that is more accessible to pick up and play, while remaining small enough to take with you on your travels. The decision was also made to use nylon strings. This softer material is easier on the fingers (as opposed to steel), allowing your fingertips to become slowly accustomed to the hardening process. A narrow nut width – usually reserved for full sized steel string acoustics
