Cordoba C7, Nylon String - Spruce Review

Absolutely love this guitar!

I bought a C3M last year to get back into some nylon strings. I fell in love with the guitar so much that I pushed through learning "Rio Ancho." After 1 year, I wanted more so I gave my C3M to my niece and upgraded to the C7 spruce top. Greatest decision ever. Not only is my niece in love with her new C3M, but I am blown away at the sound and playability of my C7. Sweetwater's… read more setup was fabulous as always, the guitar is in perfect condition, and the tone of this guitar is amazing. The harmonics ring out clearly, there is no buzz on the neck, and the action is perfect. I love everything about this guitar.

Incredible Value

The C7 is a beautifully built and great sounding instrument. The attention to detail on this guitar is flawless and it sounds great as well. It is extremely resonant and easily compares to guitars I have played costing 2-3 times the price. Please keep in mind that the guitar may require a setup from a professional as my guitar's action was very high when I received it, the nut… read more and bridge required some adjustments, which left me wondering exactly what the 55 point inspection involved. Either way, even after a trip to a luthier, this guitar was a STEAL. If you need a great classical guitar and don't want to break the bank, click on "BUY"

Wow! Amazing Guitar ...BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!

We have a c3 and c5 in our family (as well as Martin and Taylor Steel String guitars) and my teen children wanted a classical guitar that is a bit more special for school concerts and recitals. We loved this Cordoba series so much that we decided to purchase a C7 Spruce Natural. This instrument is absolutely beautiful and plays like a guitar 3x its price. It is beautifully finished… read more and plays well right out of the box. I can't say enough great things about this Cordoba series of guitars. Do your self a favor and buy one. I would recommend this instrument for intermediate to advanced level players looking for a well made, great sounding, good looking guitar.

Great value for beginner - lower intermediate guitarist

For the money, I doubt you'll find a better guitar. If you're an intermediate player who can't afford to get a C10+ guitar or you're a beginner that's serious about learning, this is for you. I took a star off because one of the frets (7th or 8th one) isn't seated properly and makes the d string buzz when fretted on the 7th fret. Pros: The guitar looks amazing. The bass is… read more full. Most likely because of the layered rosewood sides. The trebles are clear. Most likely because of the spruce top. Trussrod adjustment! Action was pretty good out of the box Cons: Came with fret buzz on a single fret, so I need to file down/reset a fret to make my d string not buzz on the 7th fret. You have to buy a gig bag separately.

Value-for-money

Excellent classical guitar for a beginner or an intermediate player. Built quality and sound is impressive for this price range. Great value for the money. And, Sweetwater customer service (Joe Holsclaw) deserves 5 starts, as well.
