Description

The Yamaha GC42C classical guitar has a brightly enriched sound and powerful vibes crafted from it's Madagascar rosewood back and sides.

Developed with the know-how gained from decades of experience making hand-made instruments, the GC series represent our handcrafted line of classical guitars at guitar workshop in Japan and China. Our craftsmen's close attention to detail and selecting the finest wood materials makes sure that each instrument is of the best quality possible. Whether you choose the warm sweet tone of ceder or the clear rich resonance of spruce, either top will provide discerning players with outstanding tone and clarity.

Yamaha's original sound in GC82S / GC82C is inherited in this model. Characterized by brightly enriched sound and powerful vibes crafted from Madagascar rose in back and sides. GC42C features solid American Cedar on the top board.

Top materials
All models in the GC series feature solid tops and backs that provide the characteristically rich tone of superior materials. Both spruce and cedar tops are available throughout the lineup letting you choose according to your taste in sound and appearance.

Wood selections
Wood is "alive" and must be prepared carefully over a long period of time in order to be suitable for use in an acoustic guitar. Even then, no two pieces of wood are the same. It takes a tremendous amount of skill and experience to be able to select the right woods and combinations of woods for an instrument that will bear the Yamaha name.

Neck shaping
Necks on the Grand Concert series are shaved one by one by a luthier using his sensitive hands to feel the curvature of the neck, making it fit perfectly for smoother finger movement and solid stability.

Bracing pattern
The bracing pattern, an essential element that defines the guitars tonal character and response, was devised by Antonio de Torres in the 1880s. In the new GC series, Yamaha has improved upon this shape and design delivering greater volume and response, bright and clear high-end, and rich bass.
* Bracing shape and design vary for each model.

Saddle fit & bridge
The saddle captures string vibration transferring it through the bridge and on to the top. The relationship of these three components; saddle, bridge, and top, is extremely important on a guitar. Using their advanced skills, our craftsmen fit the saddle into a groove in the bridge with a high level of surface to surface contact. The bridge is also precisely positioned and glued into on the top with a high level of accuracy.
