GEWA Pro Natura Silver 4/4 - Retoure (Zustand: sehr gut)

Considering the price, the guitar is great. Beautifully finished, a pleasant, warm sound. The Kirstein service worked really well. Many thanks!

Good, compact guitar that looks great visually. Easy to play.

I must confess that I have no comparison, since it is my first classical guitar (so far Western). Overall, however, the instrument makes a high-quality, well-made impression on me, feels good and smells wonderfully of wood.

First of all, I've been playing guitar since 1998 and have held a few acoustic guitars in my hands and played them. Mostly they were relatively cheap guitars, but also a few good pieces. The first really good acoustic guitar I've owned and played in a while is a Hopf Nova, which is really a beautiful piece and develops a stunning sound with steel strings.

Decadent as I am, then, I had to get a second guitar that I could cover with nylon strings so that my battered fingers could recover (and, of course, to have a little variation in sound). What's good about the VGS Pro Natura Silver? First of all, at this price, you won't find a solid wood top guitar elsewhere. In addition, you get Hanabach strings on it from the factory. The woods used are all native, so you don't participate in pseudo-CITES-friendly environmental sins. In addition, the guitar is built in Germany and it is - in my opinion - a great eye-catcher with its light complexion.
Now the bottom line: The sound is good (I like it, anyway), but nothing that would completely blow me away. In the price range is also the otherwise very popular entry-level guitar Yamaha C40, which I find sonically but not so good in direct comparison. Also in the processing I see here the VGS in front.

Pleasant is the relatively thin neck to play, which reminds a little of the neck of an electric guitar, which makes the guitar pleasant in the hand. However, I'm still a little undecided on what to make of the fretboard. I hope the acacia wood is as robust as rosewood (which is not to be assumed), but only time will tell.
One significant drawback I feel is that you have to tune the guitar before every play. I can not judge whether here the mechanics or perhaps the Hanabach strings are the weak point, the fact is that you can not put the tuner out of hand (and the situation does not improve significantly after several weeks).

I think but despite this shortcoming the guitar is a bargain and here (relatively successfully) was tried to build and sell a price performance cracker, which pleases all in all well.

We bought the guitar for our son, 13. Great price, it was delivered so quickly that he was able to practice before his 2nd guitar lesson. He gets along well with it and the sound is beautiful.
