Deals on Vintage Classical Guitars

May 21st, 2008 by admin

A vintage classical guitar is sometimes also known as “nylon string guitar” or “spanish guitar”. It is basically a musical instrument from the family of instruments called chordophones.

The main characteristic of a vintage classical guitar are

  • its shape (modern guitar shape, or historic guitar shapes)
  • its strings (gut or today mainly with nylon; the bass-strings additionally being wound with a thin metal thread)
  • the instrumental technique (the individual strings are usually plucked with the fingers (or the fingernails); as opposed to using a plectrum)
  • its historic repertoire, though this is of lesser importance, since any repertoire can and is played on the guitar.

Just the name classical guitar does not mean that only classical repertoire is performed on it. But instead all kinds of music, whether classical, flamenco or jazz or for any other form can be performed on it.

Vintage Classical Guitars are typically played in a seated position. IT is designed to allow for the execution of solo polyphonic arrangements of music in much the same manner as the pianoforte can. This is the major point of difference in design intent between the classical instrument and other designs of guitar. Flamenco guitars are very similar in construction, but are associated with a more percussive tone.

In Mexico, the popular mariachi band includes a range of guitars. In Colombia, the traditional quartet includes a range of instruments too, from the small bandola to the slightly larger tiple, to the full sized classical guitar. The requinto also appears in other Latin-American countries as a complementary member of the guitar family, with its smaller size and scale, permitting more projection for the playing of single-lined melodies.

Classical vintage guitars are sometimes referred to as classic vintage guitars. In recent years, the series of guitars used by the Niibori Guitar orchestra have gained some currency, namely:

  • Sopranino guitar (an octave and a fifth higher than normal); sometimes known as the piccolo guitar
  • Soprano guitar (an octave higher than normal)
  • Alto guitar (a 5th higher than normal)
  • Prime (ordinary classical) guitar
  • Niibori bass guitar (a 4th lower than normal); Niibori simply calls this the “bass guitar”, but this assigns a different meaning to the term than other parts of the community use, as his is only a 4th lower, and has 6 strings
  • Contrabass guitar (an octave lower than normal)

Fender.

There were several other changes also. All these changes affected Fender guitars very seriously. 1966 brought an era of “large” pegheads, less contoured bodies, and much higher production numbers.
