This was on our recommended list prior to December 2017, however its ratings have slipped a little over the last year so we now recommend more highly rated options in our guide to nylon string guitars.

Overview
The Multiac Nylon Encore is another hybrid or ‘crossover’ guitar with a 1.9″ nut width and was designed with live amplified performance in mind.
It has a chambered body which Godin says reduces feedback problems when playing through an amplifier.
It also sports Tusq nuts and saddles by Graphtech.
The neck has a comfortable feel and makes it easy to move your left hand around.
If you come from a steel-string background and are looking for a versatile solid workhorse nylon string guitar for gigging, then this is a good starting point in your selection process.
