A beautiful alternative to steel
I'm a long time steel string player but have always preferred the tone of a classical guitar. This hybrid is beautifully made with a stunning tone.
I did take a risk in buying without playing (after much research) and went for this option over a Martin or Taylor acoustic. I'm delighted with my decision - the feel of the guitar is stunning and in no way inferior to a steel Martin or Taylor within this range.
The guitar is versatile enough for Jazz (my usual style), classical, and general rock styles - I especially like the slim neck.
My research did warn that the fret edges were a touch sharp and this has proven to be the case (thought nothing major at all - wear and tear will of course remove this); the finish on this guitar is otherwise spectacular. Beautifully made and detailed.
I can't recommend this guitar enough; it's time to start taking real notice of Cordoba guitars.

An excellent guitar for the price , great tone and playability. I had don a lot of online research this guitar came up to all expectations. I like the light weight of the guitar great sustain and ease of playing . I had read the fret finnish was in need of dress but I believe cordoba have stepped up quality control on this issue. it would have been preferred if the guitar came with a hard case but the soft bag is passable.

Excellent build quality
Setup/action very good. Low E about 3mm and no buzzing when using capo all the way up the fretboard. Not bad for nylon string.
Sound unplugged very good and balanced.
Sound plugged is far better than any other nylon string guitars I have tried including a Taylor 214ce-N .
The blend system opens up recording sound options... I tend to dial in about a quarter turn on the internal mic.
Only consideration is it can feedback when playing at volume, so recommend getting the sound hole cover, although phase and notch controls do reduce this as well.
I was nervous buying unseen.. but return policy of Thomann gave me the confidence to pull the trigger... no regrets
