I bought this guitar with a very specific idea of what it would be like as reviewed by Acoustic Guitar Magazine. I already have and play other guitars, all steel string models. I was looking for that sound that only comes from nylon strings, but not so much for classical style, but for the jazz/bosa noval/latin sound. This guitar with it's 1/4 inch narrower neck and full and balance tone turned out to be just the ticket. The built in electronics are not fancy but just right for those occasions when one just needs a little more volume, like jamming with friends. The only bugger is that the battery is deep inside the body making it difficult to access. I have not owned this long enough to comment on battery life, but I expect as with most instruments, that won't be a problem. The service from Amazon was, as I have come to expect, great with one minor glitch. There was no manufacturers handbook/instructions that said where the battery case was. All in all, I am very happy with the overall purchase process and the instrument is exactly what I was looking for. 5 out of 5 for what I was looking for.

The Cordoba Fusion Orchestra 12 is the first full body guitar in the Fusion series.It features Indian Rosewood back and sides, a lightweight Cedar neck, and an Ebony fingerboard and the option of either a solid Canadian Cedar or European Spruce top. The multiple ringed rosette is made of 100% natural woods and inlaid by hand, along with the Maple and Ebony purfling that outlines the soundboard.A light Mahogany binding accents the body shape of the Orchestra, which is slightly altered from a traditional nylon string guitar.The most notable characteristics of the Orchestra are the tone and feel.The thinner 1 7/8 inch neck is comfortable for any player, and the radiused fingerboard makes playability quick, comfortable, and easy.The tone is dark and punchy in the basses, with strong, round trebles and balanced mids.The Orchestra comes equipped with a BBand A1.2 pickup, which has a volume control mounted on the inside edge of the sound hole.The 9-volt battery powered electronics are mounted in a small tube that is directly coupled with a high quality endpin jack making an all-in-one structure.The HZZless circuitry and UST (under saddle transducer) pickup produce a tone that is amazingly clear and pure.The Cordoba Fusion series is designed to make high quality nylon string guitars with necks and fingerboards that are thinner and feel like a steel string acoustic or electric guitar.They bodies are built in the traditional Spanish style of guitar making but the necks and fingerboards are modernized and feel comfortable for non-classical players.
