This guitar is very well crafted and sounds amazing, particularly for this price point. I already have a Yamaha C40 that has good sound and quality, but the Kremona is a level above. This guitar is made from quality woods and I love the Purple heart fretboard. Very happy with this purchase and highly recommend. Kudos to S65C GG.

I wanted an inexpensive classical guitar because I wouldn't often play it, but wanted to have the option of the sound of nylon and wanted it to be good. I have always been drawn to guitars made from less popular materials like cherry sides or redwood tops, and tone woods that are inherently cheaper to start with. What if you started with readily available, less expensive, sustainable wood, and used the same construction quality you apply to a higher end guitar. That's what it seems Kremona has done with S65C GG. It's a mind blowing guitar for $299. I'm really happy with it. And Kremona didn't get nutty and make it weird... it's a basic guitar box that achieves the same result as more expensive ones which is great sound. There isn't a fancy finish, the rosette is tasteful and simple, as is the binding. The look of the guitar is a reflection of the woods: cedar top, sapele back and sides, maple binding and neck, purple heart fingerboard.

Its a very light guitar with a rich full sound. The thing i noticed aside from the sound and ease of play is that it really looks hand made, down to the hand sanded neck and light saw dust left that i had to wipe off! Really a nice guitar. Glad i bought it.

This product was not able to be used. It was defective and broken. This was the second attempt at the same guitar and both times the same problem in different sides of the guitar.

This guitar looks and feels like a guitar that would sell for at least twice its price. The craftsmanship and materials are outstanding (much more lightweight than I was expecting). The sound is rich and sharp and the smell of the cedar top is an added bonus. Highly recommend this guitar to a novice or intermediate player that wants amazing value. Oh, and these guitars are handmade in Bulgaria!

I purchased this guitar in June 2020. It is now mid November. My initial concerns about sound quality have been resolved. At first , I noticed some mild buzzing and tonal problems on the E and G strings. With daily use, the Kremona S65C GG has settled in and definitely improved with daily playing. I did replace the original strings -- probably unnecessarily-- with a set of superior tension strings. Every string produces a clear note from the first fret to the sound hole -- no buzzing. This guitar is nicely constructed, and has a simple yet quality look to it. The purple heart on the fretboard is striking in direct sunlight, looks more like walnut in lower lighting.Definitely worth the money. There are several audio review videos available on line, that almost do it justice.Glad I bought it.P.S. Another review stated that the fingerboard width at the nut is only 48 mm on his guitar. Perhaps he was sent a different model. The fingerboard width on my guitar is 52mm, just as stated on the spec. sheet at Kremona's website.One more note -- I addressed a concern to Kremona-- related to stringing, intonation and packing of this instrument. They responded immediately and with useful advice. Based on my own experience, that is rare.

. All the specs on this guitar said the nut is 52mm. As you can see in my photo it is not in fact 52 mm. It is actually 48, which is a huge difference. Since the specs said 52 mm I thought I was getting a guitar with a 52mm nut (standard classical width). But I was not. I call this straight up deception. There is a very strong reason why I would never consider playing, much less buying, a guitar with a 48 mm width. This guitar has sat there on a stand since I took it from UPS. I haven't played note one on it and therefore cannot use it for its intended purpose, which was to tune it to C#min open tuning and leaving it there, thereby saving my Cordoba C7 from the stress of constant 2 1/2 step changes in both directions. And it's too bad, to be honest. Too bad that either the company doesn't know it's own product or someone somewhere was making totally erroneous assumptions, kind of like saying it's "sustainable" simply because it contains wood that comes from a certain area. It's what is done before and after harvest that makes it sustainable, but the guitar sustains nothing because the wood is from somewhere. Sheesh. It should be obvious at this juncture that I am more than a little irritated, and this would be due to the fact that I bought a guitar based on specs that are wrong and I therefore cannot play it. I'm fairly certain air traffic control gives a pilot new to a landing strip exact measurements. There would be massive fatalities had they taken this horseshoes and hand grenades approach and applied it to air traffic safety. Look at the photo. 48 IS NOT 52, NOR IS 52 48. 4mm is as good as a mile. Ask any heart surgeon. Ask any classical guitarist disqualified from competition for non-traditional gear or can't make it through a set on a 52 because his stamina is ruined by the easier 48.

I bought this guitar for practice/travel because it was an excellent value for a solid top instrument and included a gig bag. The sound quality of the Kremona is as good, if not better, than my two much more expensive guitars. The fit and matte finish tone-woods are very attractive and I find it easy to play. I am very happy with this purchase.

I simply love this guitar! Such a nice, soft pleasing sound, especially when playing with picking pattern. Suits my voice very well too. Great quality, amazing sound.
