The ESC-80 is a great beginner's guitar from Fender. Fender is mainly known for their electric guitars and bass guitars, but they are also becoming increasingly popular in the field of acoustic guitars. The ESC-80 is part of their Educational Series, making it a good beginner guitar. This is reflected in the low price, but also in the fact that it is a 3/4 size, which is a bit smaller than standard. Moreover, the guitar meets all the requirements of a solid classical guitar, making it a good first guitar. The top is made of spruce wood, which gives great resonance and a warm sound.

The back and sides are made of okoume, which provides a beautiful brown color and a clear sound. The neck is made of nato and has a truss rod. This is very useful, because a guitar neck sometimes has a tendency to bend slightly. This is usually due to changes in temperature and humidity. It cannot be prevented, but with the help of the truss rod it is very easy to straighten the neck again. This makes it a guitar that can also last a long time. The guitar also comes with a bag, so it is easy to transport. In short, the ESC-80 is a very good beginner's guitar!

Fender

Fender was founded in 1946 by Clarence Leonidas ‘Leo’ Fender. Their first guitar, the Telecaster, became a huge success, and they started producing other similarly popular models, like the Stratocaster and the Precision Bass. Nowadays Fender has a huge assortment of different basses and guitars, with different sounds, colours, and prices, so that they have something for everyone. Consequently, they remain one of the most popular guitar brands today!

The Paramount Series

The Paramount Series is a great series by Fender that produces more classic western guitars. They are specifically inspired by acoustic guitars from the 1930s and 1940s. The series contains three different semi-acoustic western guitars. The appearance of the guitars is also clearly derived from the past, as is obvious by the snowflake inlay on the fretboard and the rosette and binding.

The PS-220E

The PS-220E is a good parlor guitar. The parlor guitar is relatively old and was usually played solo or with a small group of people. The small size of the body meant the sound wasn’t very loud, which was ideal back then. However, when louder music became popular the parlor guitar wasn’t loud enough anymore. Nevertheless, with modern technology the parlor guitar is louder than ever and it’s becoming increasingly more popular again. The top of the guitar is made of solid spruce for a beautifully warm sound. The guitar has solid mahogany back and sides for great projection.
