An Affordable, Comfortable Classical Guitar

The Cordoba GK Studio Negra left-handed nylon-string acoustic-electric guitar combines a fast-playing feel with traditional flamenco construction techniques for a remarkable playing experience. Based on its sister model, the GK Studio, the GK Studio Negra features the same European spruce top but with Indian rosewood back and sides for an even bassier and more robust sound. The mahogany neck is slightly thinner and narrower than traditional classical guitars for smooth playability. And the thinner body style is comfortable for players of any style. Not only do you get premium tonewoods, the GK Studio Negra shows Cordoba's attention to detail with a hand-inlayed wood rosette and gold/black tuners with ebony buttons. You also get the Fishman Presys Blend pickup system built right in. For a highly playable guitar with some beautiful appointments, you'll love the Cordoba GK Studio Negra.

Traditional design and construction

The Cordoba GK Studio Negra doesn't skimp on construction. The GK Studio Negra features traditional handmade classical guitar design, including the solid European spruce top with Spanish-style fan bracing. Fan bracing is preferred for flamenco guitars over lattice bracing, allowing the guitar's top to vibrate more freely while still providing evenly balanced tone.

Premium tonewoods

While the Cordoba GK Studio Negra is inexpensive, Cordoba did not sacrifice quality materials. The Indian rosewood back and sides set a powerful tonal foundation for the solid European spruce top, giving you the right balance of warmth and brightness. The neck is solid mahogany, for maximum transfer of string energy to the spruce top. A rosewood fingerboard and Indian rosewood bridge complete the elegant look.

Great look, great playability

The Cordoba GK Studio Negra is gorgeous to simply look at, from the detailed hand-inlayed rosette and maple binding to the gold/black tuners with ebony buttons. And you'll love how the gloss finish shows off the Indian rosewood body and European spruce top. But looks aren't everything, the GK Studio Negra was designed with playability in mind, and the great look is just the icing on the classical cake.

Cordoba GK Studio Negra Left-handed Nylon-string Acoustic Guitar Features:

  • Great-sounding, fast-playing guitar at an amazing price
  • Traditional Spanish fan bracing provides a balanced, lively sound
  • Indian rosewood back and sides for rich bass with excellent detail

Sexy and Warm!

After having not played the guitar for a super long time, I decided it was time and searched for a nylon string guitar that was approachable and easier to play than a classical guitar. Well, I found that in the Cordoba GK Studio Negra Lefty. This instrument is gorgeous and resonant with warm and rich tones! I've since put on different strings and - with thinner trebles - I am able to get a slightly brighter and more penetrating sound, while retaining its rich tone qualities.

The only issue that I had with the guitar out of the box is intonation its; and it's huge! This is why only 4 stars. As a professional musician, this is a serious concern. One cannot work with an instrument that is compromised with such problem. Then after alerting my sales engineer, Cristian Guerrero, Jim Soracco and Justin Dunbar came to the rescue and were most accommodating and eager to remedy the situation. Upon mentioning that the guitar will need work on its saddle and a proper setup if I was going to keep the guitar, they gave me the green light to bring it to a guitar-techician and offered to reimburse me for the setup fee. They even sent me a replacement guitar in the process, with the hope that it would have more stable intonation.

In the end, I kept the original guitar and sent back the replacement. I have done work on its saddle and strung on different sets of strings to see and hear what works best, and I am happy to say that its intonation is much improved. It definitely still needs the proper attention and work of a guitar technician. And when this Covid-19 crisis is contained and a guitar shop is open again, I will do just that. Until then, I must give the BIGGEST SHOUT OUT to the SWEETWATER SOUNDS TEAM! You're AWESOME!!!I truly appreciate your service and integrity, especially during this tough time of so many uncertainties. THANK YOU!!! I give you all at least 11 STARS!!!!!!
