A 4/4 classical guitar, also known as a full-size or standard-size guitar, is typically played by teenage or adult guitarists who have the physical ability to handle a larger instrument. Concert guitarists also prefer the 4/4 size, as it is the standard for professional recordings. This guitar size is suitable for both lessons and professional performances.
Although the dimensions of a 4/4 classical guitar can vary slightly depending on the manufacturer and model, the scale length—the vibrating length of the strings from the nut to the bridge—of a typical classical model is around 650 mm. The nut width is generally 52 mm, providing ample space for traditional fingerstyle playing. Proportionally, the body has a high volume, with a width of 370 to 380 mm and a depth of approximately 90 to 120 mm. Since this guitar size is also used in professional settings, it comes in various designs, including models with and without a cutaway and versions equipped with a pickup system for stage and studio use. Additionally, manufacturers offer affordable entry-level 4/4 guitars, making them ideal for adults who are just discovering their passion for guitar or for professionals seeking a reliable second instrument.
Due to its large resonant body, the 4/4 classical guitar produces a rich, full-bodied tone. The body volume enhances sound projection, which is particularly important in unamplified settings. This classical guitar is the optimal choice for adult players who seek a well-rounded instrument with a broad dynamic range and expressive tonal qualities.
