Yamaha CS40 7/8 Size Classical Guitar Review

I bought this knowing it would not be a premium instrument but I wanted a short scale because I am lazy and like easy fingering. So when I got it I found I liked the dimensions and it was pretty playable. I shaved a bit off the bridge to brighten the instrument and adjusted the saddle a bit to lower the string just a little, that helped a lot. I next added some Savarez strings to brighten it further and that really improved it. Not very bassy but I wanted more harmonic content than it had originally and got it. I might shave some mass off the inner bracing and see if I can get a bit more harmonic content out of it. That might weaken the instrument a bit but it didn't cost me too much anyway.
I really just wanted to see if a small scale guitar could give me what I want and now I think it can. I have a full sized classical that sounds excellent but still wanted something that required less effort to play. This would be a pretty decent starter instrument for a young person just beginning and you wouldn't need to do what I did for them to be able to play it.
