The stock strings on the cedar are ok.
The sprucetop model sounded off a lot at first, until changing to a new set of strings.
Augustine basses : La Bella trebles....golden nylon.
I like the thinner woods & thinner finish used , because that is what makes an instrument sing louder & clearer.
Being more free to vibrate , it sounds like a handmade expensive guitar.
Old 's had thick plastic finishes which dampened the sound too much.
The new is lightyears better & the guitar is noticeably lighter in ovrall weight , making it easier to hold & play.
The simple headstock design suits a classical guitar , better than the fancy overdone baroque styles you see on other brands.
If the inside bracing was more smoothly sanded , this guitar would rate 15 out of 10.
All the outside is excellent finish & fit.
There's no marks , flaws , or anything to complain about.
It looks like a well made instrument.
The mahogany neck helps give better sound.
The heel block point is not sharp like the old style classicals !
The emerald green line in the purfling is an nice Irish touch.
The frets have been done well.
I was so impressed with the sound , looks , & lightness of this Spruce top , that i ordered the Cedar.
2 beauties at a great deal.
When i quietly play the loud , deep bass cedar , i think the spruce will just have to decorate my wall with its beautiful unstained light colored top against the dark Indian rosewood sides.
Then the next day , playing J.S. Bach on the spruce really does some decent justice to this perfect polyphonic music, bringing out the 3rds & 6ths real clear.
So , the Cedar is romantic.....Spruce is light & happy sounding.
The Spruce will improve as it ages 2-3 years as the resin hardens......Bach is sound better as i age too !
The Cedar sound is at its maximum right away, having very little sap to cure.

.After 2 years of playing & using Dampit Humidifiers occasionally, this guitar sounds 100 times better than when new June 2011 !
The harmonics are easily heard & the sustain is very long.
The spruce soundboard has wonderfully improved the sound with only 2 years of aging.
This 192 model in cedar is regular boomy bass & quieter treblings,
This spruce is the best sounding guitar I have had in 5 decades : very well slightly lightly built for a factory regular.
Looking forward to future sound characteristics !

.The 1st string was out of intonation a lot. Using 3 different new 1st's made no improvement.Gently sanding all top braces with 150/220/320fixed it !And the sound now is louder , livelier , & much better !This model has beautiful purfling, & is fantastic for the price, especially @ Custom Guitars Friend.After 30 years using cedar top classicals, the cleaner louder spruce is great.For plywood sides & back of Indian Rosewood , this sure has excellent projection.The GC31 has solid woods throughout , but costs 3 x's more.

.The mohogany neck makes the difference in better sound compared to nato wood.The overall quality detailing is excellent.The bodywood is thin which shows the bracing a little, but the tradeoff for better louder sound is worth it !An excellent instrument for plywood sides & back.
