I have been thinking about getting a good nylon string guitar for some time, and I spotted this black beauty.
So I flashed the credit card.  After all, you can't take it with you.

Beautiful. Looks like a relatively narrow fingerboard width compared to other classical guitars?

Congratulations!

Yes it is 1 7/8" so not as daunting width wise as traditional classical guitars which suits me.  More of a hybrid..  It probably wouldn't be right for a "proper" classical guitar player though.

I think there's a finger smudge on that black finish, lol! Black finishes are gorgeous but they do show all the smudges in the right light. I have a Black Takamine (steel string) and I'm constantly polishing it. That is a great looking Taylor (both of them) Paul. Does it have a flat fretboard? I look forward to hearing it in a song!

It does show every finger print - which is not good as I have a poor tendency to rest my right hand little finger on the body.  Terrible habit I know!  The finger board is fairly flat but maybe a slight radius.  25.5 scale length.

Gorgeous looking guitar. I'm for ever wanting a nylon guitar (thinking it will be like a guitar version of the ukulele), I love the look of it.

Also my acoustic is black.
