The CS40 is designed specifically for young learners with a scale and compact body that offer excellent playing comfort. That combined with excellent playability and superior tone, make it an instrument that will keep practice inspirational and exciting.

If you have, or are yourself, a student looking for an easy-playing nylon-string classical acoustic guitar, then the 7/8-scale Yamaha CS40II makes a fine solution. Part of the Yamaha C Series, the CS40 is quality built from traditional tone woods (spruce, rosewood, others) to provide a solid foundation and satisfying playing experience for the beginner to the advanced student. The CS40II’s 22.8125″ scale length provides a comfortable platform and easy finger stretch for the entrant learner. Meanwhile, a traditionally contoured body, sound hole rosette, and slotted headstock give the Yamaha CS40 a professional look that you or your student will be proud to play in public.
