Valencia VC744TCE electro-classical with padded gig bag

It’s no secret that we’re huge fans of Valencia classical guitars. This brand offers absolutely impeccable build quality and mind-blowing value for money and with the advent of their new ToneFlow bracing system they’ve really scaled new heights for classical guitar tone, without pushing up prices. This stunning electro-classical guitar has a solid red cedar top and beautiful walnut back and sides, with just 7cm of body depth for a fantastically comfortable playing feel. It looks superb, with a lovely smooth, natural satin top offset against a high gloss back and sides, gorgeous wooden soundhole rosette decorations and attractive black and white bindings. The hardware is well specced too, with beautiful (and reliable!) gold plated machine heads.

In spite of its very slim body, this guitar offers an incredibly rich and resonant tone thanks to Valencia’s ingenious ToneFlow spanish fan bracing, which cuts non-structural sections from the braces allowing the body to resonate to its full potential without compromising structural integrity. The premium mahogany neck is quite slim, for a comfortable, modern playing feel, and topped with an Amara ebony fretboard. The neck joint has been chamfered which combines with the cutaway to make high fret access easy. If you love the full, mellow and responsive tone of a classical guitar but need extra volume then you’ll be impressed with the Fishman Sonitone under saddle pickup, which gives a crisp and full recreation of the instrument’s acoustic tone. The volume and tone controls are neatly tucked away inside the soundhole so that the player can easily adjust them without needing a side-mounted panel which would compromise this beautiful instrument’s traditional looks. This incredible guitar even comes with a well padded gig bag, which is designed to accommodate its slimmer-than-average body.

All in all this is an exceptional offering from Valencia which will please a wide range of players from comfort-craving classical guitar fans to converts from steel strung or electric guitars. These stunning guitars are well worth a test drive so call in and try one between 10-5 Tuesday to Saturday or check out now to arrange affordable, speedy postage anywhere in the UK.
