My new guitar is a Cordoba C12!

Hi there fellow guitar slingers!

Last week I went live on the NBN guitar channel to showcase my new guitar - a Cordoba C12. I must say that I’m absolutely stoked with my new guitar’s sound & playability. I love the Spruce top too!

Here are some of the features:

  • European Spruce top

  • Indian rosewood back & sides

  • Mahogany neck with an adjustable two-way truss rod

  • Flamed Maple centre wedge (separates the two pieces that comprise the back of the guitar)

  • Lattice bracing

  • Elevated fretboard

  • Cordoba Gold tuners with Ebony buttons

  • Humidified Archtop hardshell case

Here are a few pics for you to enjoy!

I purchased this guitar from my luthier friend Ramsay Phillips based in Auckland, New Zealand. He was selling it on behalf of his friend that works at the Rockshop - a well-known musical instrument chain here in Aotearoa. It was originally purchased for the store but for some reason it was put into storage and never offered for sale, which means I am the first official owner.

In this video I played the C12 for about two hours whilst asking others which guitars they play. Amazingly, I discovered that so many of my subscribers play Cordobas!

Anyway, I’ve talked enough. Please check out the livestream and stay tuned!

Let your fingers fly!
