Decent but needs setup

The guitar itself is nice, but it arrived with slightly high action. After taking it to a local shop for a professional setup, it plays like a dream. Just factor in that extra cost if you aren't comfortable doing it yourself.

Great value for the price

As an adult learner, I picked up the 39-inch version. The action is low enough to be comfortable for new fingers, and the sound is clear. Only minor issue was a slight buzz on the high E string that I fixed with a quick truss rod adjustment.

Good starter instrument

Bought this for my music class. The nylon strings are gentle on fingertips, which is great for novices. The 36-inch size is a nice middle ground for younger teens. Sound projection is decent for practice rooms.

Perfect first guitar for my daughter

We bought the 34-inch model for our 7-year-old, and it fits her perfectly. The solid spruce top gives it a surprisingly warm tone for a beginner instrument. Setup was easy right out of the box.

Beautiful craftsmanship

The natural satin finish looks elegant and feels smooth. I appreciate that they use a solid top instead of laminate at this price point. It stays in tune well after the initial stretching period.

Exceeded expectations

I was skeptical about the quality given the affordable price, but the Palardo CG-100 is fantastic. The mahogany back adds a nice depth to the bass notes. Highly recommend for anyone starting their musical journey.

5 FAQ

Q: Does this guitar come with a case or gig bag?

A: The Palardo CG-100 typically ships with a padded gig bag, a strap, picks, and an extra set of strings. Please check the specific listing details as bundle contents may vary by retailer.

Q: What is the difference between the 34, 36, and 39-inch models?

A: The numbers refer to the total length of the guitar body and neck, designed to fit different age groups and hand sizes. The 34-inch is ideal for children aged 5-7, the 36-inch for ages 8-11, and the 39-inch (full size) for ages 12 and up or adults.

Q: Can I use steel strings on this guitar?

A: No, you should never use steel strings on a classical guitar like the CG-100. The neck and bridge are not designed to handle the higher tension of steel strings, which could cause permanent damage or warping.

Q: How long is the warranty period?

A: The Palardo CG-100 comes with a standard 1-year manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Please retain your proof of purchase for any warranty claims.

Q: Are the strings nylon or steel?

A: This is a classical guitar, so it comes strung with nylon strings. These are softer on the fingers and produce a warmer, mellower tone compared to steel-string acoustic guitars.
