Caraya 551BCEQN Thin-Body Classical Guitar

The Caraya C551BCEQN is a thin-body classical cutaway built for comfort and versatility. A spruce plywood top with white 5-ply binding sits over mahogany plywood back and sides, finished in a natural gloss that keeps it clean and classic.

The mahogany neck features a comfortable D-profile, with a rosewood fingerboard and bridge. The 51mm nut width makes it an easy transition for steel-string players, while the 650mm scale length and 18 frets deliver a familiar, balanced feel.

Electronics are handled by the Mings MG-30 system, featuring a 3-band EQ and built-in digital tuner – practical, reliable, and stage-ready. Vintage-style tuners with antique white keys complete the look, and the 2-way adjustable truss rod adds long-term playability.

Weighing approximately 1.8kg, it's light enough for extended playing sessions without sacrificing tone or projection.
