Guitar size.

How do I know what size classical guitar to get?

Hi,

It depends on how big you are of course. Children often have 1/2, 3/4 or even 5/8 size guitars and most adults would have a full size.

One rule of thumb is to stand the guitar on its base next to your side with the headstock pointing upwards. If the tip of the headstock reaches your waist then that guitar is the right size for you.

Remember, this is only a rough guide. You have to take into account the size of your hands and fingers and if indeed, if the guitar "feels" right for you.

I hope this helps.
