Great Value in This Acoustic/Electric Nylon-string Guitar

The Cordoba C5-CE is a great value in a nylon-string acoustic guitar. The C5-CE sports a mahogany back and sides with a Canadian red cedar top, for rich tone with a lively presence. And the solid mahogany neck provides excellent sustain and detail. You'll also appreciate the playability of the slightly thinner neck, and the cutaway design for easy access to the upper frets. Whether you're a beginner or experienced player, the C5-CE Cadete is a great deal. And with the gloss polyurethane finish, Indian rosewood binding, and a stylish rosette, the Cordoba C5-CE looks as good as it plays.

Cordoba C5-CE Nylon-string Acoustic Guitar at a Glance:
  • Traditional design
  • Quality tonewoods
  • Fishman electronics


Traditional design:
The Cordoba C5-CE doesn't skimp on construction. The C5-CE features traditional handmade classical guitar design, including the solid red 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-CE 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.

Fishman electronics:
Your Cordoba C5-CE comes with a built-in Fishman Isys+ pickup system for great plugged-in tone. Whether you're playing live or just want an easy way to record, you'll love how the Fishman Isys+ system picks up every nuance of your performance. It also has a built-in tuner for easy tuning anytime.

Cordoba C5-CE 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
  • Great plugged-in tone from Fishman Isys+ electronics

Recommended Accessories

Everything was exactly as promised. I was impressed with the phone call I received from your guy when I had just placed the order. He was very thorough and professional in every way. I love my new digital piano. Your wide selection and excellent service as well as your "3 Payment Plan" and the 2 year warranty sealed the deal for me on this purchase. No one else could come close.
