A Classical Guitar Built for the Stage

Give your classical repertoire a sonic makeover with the Stage thin-body nylon acoustic-electric from Cordoba. This chambered classical brings warm, round tones to the table with a body crafted and chambered from mahogany. A spruce top capped with a flame maple veneer brings articulate tones and note separation while catching the eyes of your audience wherever you gig. Speaking of gigs, the Cordoba Stage delivers exceptional plugged-in tone courtesy of its under-saddle transducer and body mic coupled with a Stage Pickup System preamp. A mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard will keep your hand comfortable fretting chords and stretching to notes for hours during practice and performance.

Beautiful looks and more

The Cordoba Stage will grace any stage with style, tone, and aesthetic appeal. A flame maple veneer atop its spruce top makes it an eye-catcher right off the bat. A chambered mahogany body also diminishes its weight and adds resonance, making it a breeze to play for those long practice sessions. Lastly, an ergonomic Cordoba Fusion mahogany neck makes time onstage and practicing at home even more comfortable. If it’s not love at first sight, it will be once you play it!

Electronics bring precision to the voice

Take the Cordoba Stage wherever your classical performances take you. This acoustic-electric sports electronics co-developed with Fishman, delivering its tone with precision. Thanks to an under-saddle transducer coupled with a body mic, both vibrations from the strings and the voice of the guitar receive direct capture from the electronics system. Pair that with a Stage Pickup System preamp, and this classical Cordoba treats listeners to a warm, rich tone with fantastic midrange — a big reason it has become a favorite among classical guitarists around Sweetwater.

Rated 5/5
Cordoba Stage Black Burst Nylon String Acoustic Electric is a Gem!
The Cordoba Stage Black Burst Nylon String Acoustic Electric is a Gem! Special thanks to Skyler McGlothlin at Sweetwater for answering every last one of my long grocery list of questions on this one and your fabulous Holiday weekend next day delivery! Wowza! First off the tone and sound of the instrument acoustically is very nice for private practice or songwriting but it really goes to an entirely different level when played through a preamp, amp, PA or multi effect into headphones or earbuds. This records just beautifully with lots of tonal range, variations and a nice uniform, top to bottom note clarity, gain and resonance. It can be produced into a slick fusion tone or a more natural sound with just a tweak or two of the presets on your preamp or multi effect. I am a bassist by trade, but this is an excellent tool for me to use for songwriting, backing chords and/or melody/harmony single note lines. The instrument truly sings and QC is top notch, the fit and finish, feel of the neck and fingerboard are that of a much higher price point. This will have a special place in my home studio arsenal and my guitar player friends will surely love it too! The gig bag it comes with is very high quality and I also ordered a Hardshell case for it during long term storage when not seeing use. It was a tough call between this and a few other models by different makers, but I have zero regrets in my decision. Though purists may not like this up against a full bodied classical, it certainly fills the bill for those of us who love that nylon tone and attack, feel and response with all the access and comfort of an electric! This is a winner with any top color or configuration, but it looks gorgeous next to my fretless acoustic electric dragonfly bass and they will make beautiful music together! Thanks again to Skyler my sales engineer extraordinaire, you are awesome in every respect!
