Our Shipping Rates are calculated based on the value of your order total. Once you click "Add to Cart" your shipping charges will be displayed before you are asked to enter any personal information.
Cases
We do not sell cases without the purchase of a guitar. This is why we
can offer such great prices for our cases!
Also, the prices of our guitars do not include a case. Although we highly
recommend purchasing a case to protect your guitar, we can ship guitars
without a case. Guitars
purchased without a case are double-boxed. The guitar is placed inside
the first box which is then packed inside a very strong outer box.
Guarantee
For information on our guarantee, please see our guarantee
page.
Consignment
We do consignment. If you have a guitar that you would like us
to sell for you, we'd be glad to help.
Our consignment rates are:
- $100 initial fee
- 10% commission of the final sale price
- All shipping that is done by XGuitars to promote your guitar will be
paid for by the consignee.

For more specific information, please email us at sales@xguitars.com

any questions you may have.
The Sunset
Where is that picture of the sunset from?
It's actually not a sunset, but a sunrise picture that we took on a ferry
trip from Greece to Italy!

Classical and Flamenco Guitar Options
| |
Top: Solid
Red Cedar or Solid German Spruce
Spruce is light in color and has a bright sound that carries
well in a concert hall.
Cedar is a darker wood with a rich warm sound.
Back & Sides: Mahogany, Rosewood, Sycamore,
or Cypress
Mahogany is a moderately hard and heavy wood that is often
used for the back and sides. Its color varies from brown to reddish-brown.
Rosewood is a more expensive wood that is also dark brown with
red tints, but can also contain some small black grains. Brazilian
Rosewood is rare and has a much more marbled grain than other types
of Rosewood.
Cypress is a very dense wood that helps to create the brightness
of the Flamenco Guitar. Its characteristics also give it the presence
needed for Flamenco performances.
Sycamore is a less expensive wood that is similar to Cypress.
It is a good compromise for flamenco guitars when an affordable price
is important.
Neck: Mahogany or Cedar
Mahogany is a darker, heavier wood than cedar.
Cedar is most commonly used in concert guitars due to its increased
strength.
Fingerboard: Rosewood or Ebony
Ebony is a very expensive, dark, hard wood and is the choice
for the concert guitar.
Rosewood is often used as an economical alternative to Ebony.
Tuners: Nickel Plated, Gold Plated, Luxury
Gold Plated, or Brass/Ebony
The most economical option for the tuners is nickel plated.
For the more serious musician, the higher quality gold plated or brass
tuners are recommended. |
