A staple in the Iberia series, the Cordoba C5-CE features a solid Canadian cedar top and mahogany back and sides.

The Fishman Isys+ 2band pickup system produces a rich and natural sound when amplified - perfect for gigging and recording.

I walked into GC looking for a guitar pickup system for my Alvarez classical guitar. I have to play a wedding in a week and needed some way to plug in to an amp. I played a cheap classical guitar that had a pickup system and it was ok. I noticed the C5-CE and played that to compare against the cheaper guitar. The sound, build quality and looks was so much better. I usually don't buy things on a whim but this guitar was just what I needed and I was in and out of GC in 15 minutes with a guitar in hand. What a great

I just purchased this model Practically brand new I was very impressed with the quality of sound and the lightness of weight the fishman pickups …WOW!!! Made a total difference

This sounds shockingly good for such an inexpensive guitar.

Hi Dunga,

The jazz piece was just an improvisation by our featured guitarist, Alfredo Carceres. The Classical piece is "La Primavera" by composer Victor Velasquez, and the Flamenco piece is called " Ecos del Sacromonte" which is also by Alfredo. We're glad this demo was helpful!

What a refreshing guitar demo. No talk, and several styles demonstrated. Kudos.

Both this 5 years ago. I play more Latin, flamenco, and anime music pieces. Love this guitar, retains the sound.of the note. Big fan of the high tension strings. Truss rod is a game changer when needed as time passes. You will.love it. I have the cut out with the pick up version.

Very nice and eclectic presentation by the guitarist.

Que bien suena esta guitarra en flamenco

I just got one of these today. I was in Guitar Center and I was playing a bunch of guitars and ukuleles. I saw this and tried it out. I loved playing this and it was $244 (before tax) because it had some small cracks on the headstock, but it wasn't anything major. It was normally $400, so it was a pretty sweet deal. I was playing this all the way home and I just love the sound. It also has a pickup, a cutaway, and tuner on it, which is something I've wanted for quite a while. I've been playing on a fairly cheap Conn classical guitar for a while and I couldn't reach the higher frets. I also wanted something I can play on stage. The tuner is just nice, so I can tune it quickly.

Those sound great!! Such well balanced tone!

Reading the comments this guy is an excellent Flamenco guitar player for real. All else sounds generic except the Flamenco part. The second best is the Jazz u Humble

[MrJoeyFernandez]

Excellent work. I think I just found my new guitar. Thanks!

[kma]

Last song he plays sounds like "I will remember you" by Skid Row. Anyone know if that was it?

[thecoldwaterdiver]

I just got mine and it sounds just as beautiful. However the fret bars are razor sharp, and it is unplayable without slicing my fingers open. I Didn't expect to have to immediately take it to a repair shop as soon as I got it. Can't wait to get it fixed cause it really does sound awesome

[phillipholt]

I didn't know Cordoba and the Washburn that I have are the same model. Willie Nelson plays that style sometimes.

[noahferwerda]

My string broke on this guitar, where would I buy new ones?

[JosefKandra-sz]

Hello guys I'm just starting to. Learn flemenco...1 question is it set on low action.. And is the guitar good for. Flamenco

[alexcorpse]

How is the overall sustain especially of the high E comparing to the normal model without cutaway?
