Get to know them!





A worn satin finish and vintage-styled appointments give the Luna Art Vintage Nylon String Acoustic-electric Guitar a nostalgic look to match its mature tone and response. This quality-built acoustic-electric gives you flexible tones and stage versatility to match its eye-pleasing rustic visuals. Stem to stern, the Art Vintage Nylon String is crafted from solid tonewoods ? a spruce-topped mahogany body and a comfortable "C"-profile mahogany neck with a warm, tonally rich pau ferro fingerboard ? to deliver advanced playability and long-lasting durability. Beyond its sumptuous finish, cream single-ply binding, Moon Phase fingerboard inlays, and brushed nickel open-gear tuners really set this guitar apart from the herd. Plus, onboard Fishman electronics give you the power to gig out without a mic: just plug your Art Vintage Nylon String directly into an amp or soundboard, and you're ready to rock (or pluck).





Built from quality tonewoods





You won't find laminates in the surprisingly priced Art Vintage Nylon String. Its solid spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides deliver a rich, full sound and dynamic response that begs to be experienced in person. What's more, its mahogany neck and pau ferro fingerboard ? a common alternative to today's more difficultly sourced rosewood ? pack a nuanced touch and a sweet, soulful sustain that even longtime players will delight in. This guitar's flat fingerboard radius suits a wide range of playing techniques, from arpeggiating full-bodied chords to navigating fluid scalar runs.





Sweet retro looks





If you're into closet classics, the Art Vintage Nylon String's nostalgic visuals won't disappoint. Its distressed satin finish is lovingly knicked to resemble the natural wear of a well-played favorite. Up top, a set of open-gear tuners with brushed nickel tuning keys really give this guitar that early 20th-century look.





Fishman Clasica II electronics





With its onboard Fishman electronics, the Art Vintage Nylon String injects all the excitement of your acoustic performance directly into an amp or sound system. The built-in Fishman Clasica II preamp system gives you a 2-band EQ, an output level, and phase controls right from the comfort of the stage, with an onboard tuner that keeps you sounding your best all night long.
