Student Guitars by Booths

Booths Student Guitar Range

Welcome to our new Booths range of student classical guitars, carefully designed to give beginners the best possible start. While these instruments are thoughtfully sourced for quality and value, we know that a great student guitar is about more than just how it’s made. The final setup and attention to detail are what truly unlock an instrument’s potential, especially for complete beginners.

Comfort is essential when learning. A student should feel at ease with their student guitar from the very first lesson, helping to build confidence and avoid unnecessary frustration. That’s why every nylon-strung Booths student guitar is sent directly to our workshop on arrival, regardless of size, to undergo the same professional setup process.

Our student guitar setup includes:

• Saddle adjustment
  The saddle is carefully shaped and adjusted first. Correct string height is vital for a comfortable playing action — strings that sit too high can be difficult to press down and may discourage a new player from continuing.

• Top nut adjustment
  Equal attention is given to the top nut. A precisely cut nut ensures a light, responsive action at the lower end of the fingerboard, making early progress far more enjoyable.

• String preparation and tuning
  Each student guitar is tuned and the nylon strings are pre-tensioned several times to reduce the natural stretch found in new strings. This continues until the guitar holds its pitch reliably. Some settling may still occur once playing begins, but we’re always happy to help.

As with all Booths student guitars, you are welcome to bring your instrument into the store at any time for free tuning. Should a string break, we will replace it with no fitting charge, ensuring your learning experience remains stress-free.

Why Choose a Booths Student Guitar?

Booths student guitars are built to a good standard and are designed to support players from their very first notes through to intermediate level. What truly sets them apart is the care, experience, and after-sales support behind them.

With over 180 years of experience in musical retail, our staff and teachers have carefully shaped every aspect of our student instrument range. Every Booths student instrument receives a full post-manufacture workshop check to ensure it is comfortable, reliable, and ready to play from day one.

Just as with our violins — where bridges, nuts, pegs, strings and intonation aids are professionally prepared — the same philosophy applies across our entire Booths range, including every student guitar we sell.
