When it comes to classical guitars, Cordoba is a name synonymous with elegance, craftsmanship, and rich tonal quality. Whether you are an aspiring guitarist or a seasoned player, Cordoba offers a perfect blend of traditional Spanish construction and modern innovation. For those in Melbourne, Colemans Music in the CBD is your go-to destination to explore a remarkable range of Cordoba guitars, where quality meets variety.
The Legacy of Cordoba Guitars
Founded in 1997, Cordoba Guitars draws inspiration from the legendary Spanish luthier Antonio Torres, who revolutionized classical guitar design in the 19th century. Cordoba's mission is simple: to honour past traditions while embracing modern techniques to enhance playability and sound.
Cordoba guitars are known for their lightweight build, responsive soundboards, and rich, warm tones. Their commitment to high-quality tonewoods such as spruce, cedar, rosewood, and mahogany ensures each guitar delivers a resonant and dynamic voice.
Highlights of the Cordoba Lineup
Cordoba C5-CE
Based off of our top-selling C5, the C5-CE adds a soft cutaway to provide easy access to the upper register, as well as Fishman Presys II preamp that amplifies your signal for stage and studio. Perfect as a first nylon-string guitar and ready for gigging, this lightweight guitar is built with a solid Canadian cedar top and mahogany back and sides to produce a warm, well-rounded tone with beautiful sustain both acoustically and amplified. The C5-CE's carved headstock, hand-inlaid wood rosette, Indian rosewood binding, Savarez strings, and glossy PU finish result in a guitar that truly stands out from all other entry-level options. A lightweight adjustable truss rod is built into the neck for stability
Cordoba C4-CE
The Cordoba C4-CE is a perfect mix of classic style and modern playability. With a solid African mahogany top, it delivers a crisp, clear tone, while the mahogany back and sides add great balance and sustain. Designed with a soft cutaway and a slim 50mm neck, it’s super comfortable to play, especially when reaching those higher frets.
But it’s not just about the sound—this guitar looks incredible too. Details like the maple binding, abalone rosette, and a sleek Edgeburst finish make it stand out in all the right ways. Plus, the Fishman Presys VT Pickup System gives you rich, natural sound when plugged in, with easy-to-reach controls right by the soundhole. Whether you're jamming on stage or recording in the studio, the C4-CE is ready to deliver great tone and style, no matter where you play.
Cordoba Protégé C1M-CET
The Córdoba Protégé C1M-CET is the thin-body variation of the popular C1M-CE model.
The perfect electric/acoustic nylon string guitar for beginners, the C1M-CET is comfortable and easy to play, making it a great first guitar at an affordable price. The C1M-CET features a spruce top, mahogany back and sides, a comfortable, slim neck profile, traditional mosaic rosette, and a matte polyurethane finish.
Like all Córdoba instruments, C1M-CET models feature premium Savarez strings and an adjustable truss rod for lifetime neck stability.
