It gives you 22 nylon strings and a full three-octave range in a flat, lap-friendly body that fits in the included gig bag. Strings run from tuning pegs on the curved neck down to an angled bridge on the soundboard, and four soundholes in the back let the rosewood and birch plywood resonate freely.
