X20 Nylon Artisan
From: €3,475.00
The X20 Nylon is a very non-traditional nylon acoustic guitar which would feel better to a regular acoustic player and sits in between the classical and steel-string world. It has a really big voice, and it has a huge bottom end, but still has good treble notes.

Description
The X20 Nylon is a very non-traditional nylon acoustic guitar which would feel better to a regular acoustic player and sits in between the classical and steel-string world.
Our X20 Nylon has its own unique tone and the carbon fibre helps on the treble side that sometimes gets lost on nylon strings.
It has a 1 7/8″ inch neck with a fairly slim profile and a 16″ radius so it feels really familiar to a regular acoustic guitar player. A standard classical guitar normally has a completely flat fretboard and a chunkier neck.
To build the X20 Nylon’s unique headstock we take 60 thin carbon fibre sheets, layer them to make a solid block and cure it. After that we cut out the shape of the headstock and carve the end product by hand in a very time-consuming process.
The X20 Nylon Artisan is built to order and generally has a five-month lead time. It features an LR Baggs Element Active System™ – VTC pick-up or upgrade to an LR Baggs Anthem™, Schertler tuners and has a full gloss finish on all surfaces. Unique features include the hand-crafted carbon tie bridge and slotted headstock. It comes with a custom Hiscox Lite Flite case.

Willis –
Absolute beauty. Excellent fit and finish. It does have a very big low end. Ordered with a 1 3/4 nut. I have x20 steel. Love both. They are different. Each with its own unique character and voice. Very happy with both x20’s. Both are easy play as well as easy on the eyes. The artistry and effort that goes into this instrument was obvious from the moment I first opened the case.
