I'm pasting the details below the URL to the Music Emporium page which has a picture--isn't she pretty? Also, the cedar top means she even smells nice. I'm not sure about all the differences between a classical guitar and a folk guitar, but one difference is the neck is slightly wider on a classical, which may seem counter-intuitive for someone with short stubby fingers, but it is what I learned on and what feels natural for me.
