Cordoba C5

From Our Research Team:

Handmade in Traditional Spanish Style

The Cordoba C5 is a fine value in a nylon-string acoustic guitar. The handmade C5 sports a mahogany back and sides with a cedar top, for rich tone with a lively presence. And the solid mahogany neck provides excellent sustain and detail. Whether you're a beginner or experienced player, the C5 Cadete is a great value. And with the gloss polyurethane finish, Indian rosewood binding, and a stylish rosette, the Cordoba C5 looks as good as it plays.

Cordoba C5 Nylon-string Acoustic Guitar at a Glance:
  • Traditional design
  • Quality tonewoods
  • Great look, great playability


Traditional Design:
The Cordoba C5 doesn't skimp on construction. The C5 features traditional handmade classical guitar design, including the solid cedar top (choice top wood for classical guitars) and Spanish-style fan bracing. Fan bracing is preferred for classical guitars over lattice bracing, as it allows the guitar's top to vibrate more freely while still providing evenly balanced tone.

Quality Tonewoods:
While the Cordoba C5 is inexpensive, Cordoba did not sacrifice quality materials. The solid mahogany back and sides set a powerful tonal foundation for the solid cedar top, giving you the right blend of deep richness and brilliance. The neck is also solid mahogany, for optimum transfer of string energy to the cedar top. A rosewood fingerboard and bridge complete the elegant look.

Great Look, Great Playability:
The Cordoba C5 is a joy to simply look at, from the detailed rosette inlay and Indian rosewood binding to the gold tuners with pearl buttons. And you'll love how the gloss finish shows off the mahogany body and cedar top. But looks aren't everything - the C5 was designed with playability in mind, and the great look is just the icing on the classical cake.

Cordoba C5 Nylon-string Acoustic Guitar Features:
  • Great-sounding guitar at an amazing price
  • Traditional Spanish fan bracing provides a balanced, lively sound
  • Mahogany back and sides for full-bodied frequency response
  • Cedar top for excellent definition and projection

Best customer service I've ever encountered. My guitar arrived ahead of the date it was supposed to, in flawless condition. Played well right out of the box. I will be buying all of my gear from you, from here on out. You made me feel like I was ordering a custom guitar, just for me. I was treated like a valuable customer.
