This is a 20 year old student model classical guitar. Solid spruce top, faux ebony fingerboard.

For a student model guitar it's ok, but it's not going to compete with any concert guitar. However, compared to other classical guitars in it's price range, I think it is one of the better sounding guitars around. Somewhat of a dark tone, with decent projection. My big complaint is that the notes can get a bit "flubby" (I just made up that word) and lacking definition when playing close to the neck, but it's something I learned to compensate for over the years.

I've played this guitar for 20 years, so I'd have to say that's it's pretty durable.

Overall it's a good classical guitar for the money. I'd definitely recommend picking one up if you find one for a good price.
