Cordoba 55RCE Acoustic Electric Classical Guitar, CD/IN Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have owned this guitar for about 3 years and I am more impressed with it now than the first day I brought it home. I have a number of guitars and the only classical guitar I own that I think compares favorably is an Alvarez-Yairi CY 118. While the Yairi is a beautiful instrument in tone and workmanship, the value of it is that of a classical guitar which resonates throughout your body as you play it. On the other hand, the Cordoba 55RCE sounds wonderful but does not have quite the acoustical resonance of the Yairi. But, the Cordoba has an electronic piezo pickup system that makes the guitar come alive when played through a halfway decent amplifier. The Cordoba includes an electronic tuner and 3 band equalizer as well as a presence modifier with its electronic package. On the whole, the Cordoba is a well rounded instrument that you will enjoy playing with or without and amplifier for years.As with any fine classical guitar, I would highly recommend that you play it before you buy it. All fine guitars are a little different. If it is not possible to play before delivery, make sure you can return it within a reasonable amount of time. This should not be a problem for the dealer. If it is, say goodbye and take your business elsewhere. The Cordoba 55RCE is made from some of the finest wood available in a time of scarcity of fine woods. But, even the best of woods do not guarantee long-term structural integrity. This is not a guitar to take to the beach and play along with your friends singing because significant changes in humidity will harm the wood and could cause cracking and/or warping. Since the Cordoba has an excellent warranty, please make sure that you take care of it in the prescribed way (to the extent practical) to preserve the value of the warranty, and more importantly to preserve the sound and beauty of the instrument. Even though it is covered by a warranty, you do not want to be without your guitar for any period of time that it takes to fix it properly. It takes a little extra time to care for your Cordoba, but it is worth it. Buying a Cordoba 55RCE is buying art that is functional as well. If you are lucky enough to acquire one of these fine instruments, I wish you luck and all the happiness that will come from your playing.

Giannini GWNC1/7-EL Sevilha Classical Guitar (Acoustic-Electric, Nylon, 7-String) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just got this wonderful instrument. A SEVEN STRINGS CLASSICAL GUITAR!!!, with electronic amplifier built-in!. I love it.
The strings are very nice spaced from each other, so that the neck doesn't look wide and still you can play the different strings easily. Also doing 7 string bar chords is not difficult and do not require much strength. I am already playing songs with this
guitar using the seventh string with the deep sound of an A one octave lower than
the 5th string.
This kind of guitar is quite difficult or expensive to get, and here I got it for the price of a common guitar. The sound is very good for me and it came with a very nice gig bag. I thanks Giannini por putting these kind of guitars at the reach of everybody.
I think seven string classical guitars will be common in the near future.

Cordoba C5-CE Acoustic Electric Classical Guitar, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've owned this guitar for a few months and I can only say positive things about it.
I'm not a highly skilled player myself but I can recognize a fine instrument like this when I play it.
The construction and overall finish is beautiful. Very solid, doesn't feel like is going to break in your hands even if you treat it like a solid body guitar...
Great sound, as an acousting, even when it has a thin body, or plugged into an amp or PC interface.
Althoung the action is a little high, you will find this beauty very easy to play due to its kind of thin neck.
The tuner works great as it's very precise. Also the internal pick up does a great job, but don't forget to turn it off after tuning because it eats the 9volts battery very quick.
The cut-away makes it great for high pitch shreding not possible in normal acoustics... and, I have to say, the tuning is still great down in the last frets.
I would really recommend this guitar for beginners and very skilled ones as well.

La Patrie Guitar, Collection Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought mine 11 years ago; it sounded great out of the case, but it has aged and mellowed beautifully. The sound is full, rich, and can play very loud or at a slight whisper -- with nothing lost as far as tone. The overtones are gorgeous, and notes will ring for a minute or two if left untouched. This is by far the best classical guitar for the money. You can't go wrong buying this masterpiece of craftsmanship; it's a work of art.

Cordoba 45F Classical Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is my first nylon string guitar so please take my opinion in strife. I have been taking private guitar lessons and have been borrowing a guitar for a couple months from a friend. After a couple weeks of lessons, I was completely hooked on this instrument and knew that it was time for me to buy my own guitar. I have been playing this Cordoba for just a couple weeks now, but I know that this is a guitar that I can definitely grow into. I value tradition and I think that it is exceptional that my guitar was handmade in Spain. There are some blemishes (only noticeable from very close...you really have to be looking for them). I like knowing that my guitar is unique. These "blemishes" (I feel bad calling them that because they are really inconsequential) don't have any affect on the sound or the playability of the guitar.
As far as the technical specifications go, my teacher has confirmed that this guitar is as advertised online and I have been told from fellow players that this is a really high quality. Other opinions aside, it definitely feels lightweight and comfortable even for my novice hands. Can't wait to continue to learn with this guitar.

Giannini GWNC3 Cadiz Classical Guitar (Acoustic, Nylon) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this guitar in Rio de Janeiro where I was on vacation without one and wanted to buy a Brazilian guitar. The two primary manufacturers are Giannini and de Giorgio. I chose this model for $350 and have been happy and playing several models in the $200-600 range. The sound is great, tuning mechanism is ergonomically friendly, and it's beautiful. The only flaw is that I'm seeing some tiny flaking on the neck, something I can probably fix with some lacquer.

Dean Classical Solid-Top Acoustic-Electric Cutaway Left Handed Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I really liked this instruemnt. The woodwork and binding is equal in quality to units that cost much more. The only adjustment I had to make was the bridge to lower the action a little. The sound quality is very good and the built in tuner is great as well. Great value and the fact that it is left handed makes it worth more to me.

Cordoba Fusion 14 Rose Classical Guitar with Polyfoam case Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was sold on Cordoba's Fusion guitars when I read about it having nylon strings on the body of a steel string guitar. While I love the softer tones of the nylon strings, I couldn't bear to part with the way a steel string guitar feels. I learned on a classical guitar and I have wanted to return to it for a while now so this seemed like it would be my chance.
The specs on this product page are true (I checked) and I believe the size measurements are the same for all the Fusions (expect maybe for the ones with 12 frets instead of 14). I spent a lot of time researching the different models before I chose to go with the "Rose". This is my second guitar and I wanted something distinguishable from my other steel-string. I checked out the photography on the Cordoba website and a couple other online stores, and decided that the "Rose" was the one for me. The pictures on Amazon don't give it any justice. I got it shipped to my house a couple months ago and I am still getting comments on how unique and interesting the all-Indian Rosewood design is.
One last thing to note - I've been told that I'm over critical about a guitar's sound when plugged in, but the electronics that come with this guitar aren't bad and I don't have too many complaints so far. For those of you who are interested in the tech specs, it's a Bband T35 pickup that is included. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and would recommend it to any one.
