Description

The Cordoba C9 Crossover offers a new spin on a Cordoba classic. Built with the choice of a solid Canadian cedar or solid European spruce top withsolid mahogany back and sides, the C9 Crossover features a 48mm nut width, radiused fingerboard, and hand-carved mahogany neck with a thinner profile. It also includes a two-way truss rod built into the neck. This model is an excellent choice for the guitarist who loves the sound and look of the traditional C9, but prefers the feel of a steel string or electric guitar. The C9 Crossover features a fan bracing pattern, which gives the center of the soundboard more surface area to vibrate and respond to the tension of the strings. A more responsive soundboard makes the guitar louder, and provides better tone. Like every guitar in the Luthier series, the C9 Crossover is built with Spanish heel construction, where the top of the guitar is attached to the neck, the sides are added next, and the guitar’s body is sealed by the installation of the back. This construction technique allows the entire instrument to vibrate as one unified piece. Aesthetic touches like the mother-of-pearl weave rosette inspired by a 1920’s Domingo Esteso guitar add a touch of vintage elegance to this best-seller. Other premium features include an rosewood fingerboard, rosewood bridge, high gloss finish, and Savarez Cristal Corum strings. The C9 Crossover includes Cordoba’s lightweight polyfoam case.

    • Nice Guitar
Style: Cedar
I'm very happy with this guitar. It arrived just a few days ago. I've been playing a long time but mostly steel string acoustics. This guitar is light and even with the Cristal Corum high tension strings feels very easy on the fingertips I suppose that's part of the allure of nylon. This guitar is beautiful. It shines like glass. The strings were already in tune right out of the case. It's a nice case, form fitting and also light but more protective than a gig bag. This guitar has been sounding better by the day as I acclimate to it. Artificial harmonics are easy to get on this instrument with these strings. Tunes by Sor and Tarrega sound better on this guitar than on acoustic. I would describe this guitar's sound as full, almost chorusy in nature as opposed to super clear. It's a matter of taste and I'm just going with it. You can do things to clarify the sound if you want but sometimes a big wall of sound is what you want. If you have Bridgett Memikides Compendium, the first two studies sound fantastic on this guitar as does the 3rd 'The Guiliani Allegro' which she plays at 100bpm. I play it at something like 55bpm. To me 100bpm shouldn't be humanly possible ! The action was set fairly low but the guitar comes with instructions on how to adjust the truss rod. I won't be doing that any time soon. The guitar should be kept in the case when not in use and at 45-55% humidity and 60-85 degrees Fahrenheit. I've set up a small room humidifier in the room the guitar is stored in to rectify the situation. I turn the humidifier off at night and close the case and the humidity is preserved overnight. I will not zip and unzip the case because eventually the zipper will fail that way. When I need to actually move the guitar I'll be assured of quality transport. I use high heat canola oil to revitalize the fret board and a little Murphy's oil soap solution for the painted waxed sections. Winters are hard on guitars with the low humidity's and fast temperature changes so don't expect your fine solid wood guitar to stay in perfect tune under those extreme conditions. This is a living piece of wood and will expand and contract accordingly. I keep a vibration head stock tuner handy and generally stop playing when the furnace comes on. Once the temperature stabilizes I re-tune and start again. The guitar doesn't fall out by much but by enough and spring will come soon enough and this will then be unnecessary. If anything changes I'll come back and amend but for now I'm living in a fool's paradise over this purchase. Thanks for reading ! ... show more

    • It is worth for the amount paid for.
Style: Cedar
I received it after eight days from my order. It is a beautiful and very comfortable guitar to play. The sound is amazing, it is shiny with great finishing. The case that it came with is very protective and beautiful. Absolutely worth the amount of money paid. The workmanship is flawless. The only thing that I have complain about is that every couple of days I need to retune it. Hopefully by passing time, it gets better. ... show more

    • Great guitar for the money
Style: Cedar
The C9 is a great guitar for the money. Best to use high-tension strings in my opinion. Cordoba has a reputation for making excellent classical guitars that perform well but that are priced reasonably. If you want a louder guitar, then go to the C12. Had mine for about 5 years and still grab it and play it even though I've got the high-end Cordoba Hauser as well. ... show more

    • Buyers beware of the company Great Lakes Outpost and their stated return policy.
Style: Cedar
The Seagull S6 Original Acoustic that I purchased from Great Lakes Outpost through Amazon was a fine guitar except for the awful fourth string F# wolf note, which made playing fingerstyle in keys G, D, and A very difficult. When I returned the guitar, I was charged at $109.80 “restocking” fee because I had somehow supposedly scratched the pick guard using the pads of my fingers! Also, I was told that the F# wolf note was a simple problem to fix, which is simply untrue, as any experienced guitarist or luthier knows. In reality, these wolf notes are generally impossible to fix without major work on the instrument, such as boring holes in it and shaving internal braces. Beware of a company that refuses to fully honor a return policy on an instrument that has such a problem. ... show more

    • Best Guitar I've Ever Owned
Style: Cedar
This review is for anyone thinking about ordering the Cordoba guitars online from Amazon. My wife ordered the Cordoba C9 for me as a reward for passing my Cisco exams. I had it in my wish list but what a shock when I picked it up at the PO. The guitar shipped the same day it was ordered and arrived here in Seoul Korea in about 10 days. The packing box and materials perfectly the foam case and the C9. There are two variations of the CP - cedar vs. spruce tops. I have the cedar topped version. If you are thinking of learning any Spanish/Romantic music this would be the guitar for you. This cedar top gives it a nice warm, round sound - great lows without sacrificing the highs. I could find no flaws in the fit and finish of this guitar. The top is a beautifully colored cedar. The fretboard is ebony which has a very nice feel compared to rosewood. The tuning machines are gold-toned with black buttons. The rosette is looks like something from the 1920's. The finish is applied evenly and not too thick. The finish on the back and sides has a three-dimension depth that you can't see in any photographs. Up and down the neck the guitar plays flawlessly and is a joy to play. If you are looking for a student model under $2,000, then this is the one. The only other advice I'd give you is to buy the Humidicase at the same time you order the guitar for the lifetime warantee. ... show more

    • Great guitar!!
Style: Cedar
I had the chance to A/B this guitar with one 5x the price. My C9 sounded amazing against the more expensive guitar. Took a while for the strings to settle, but after that...Wow! Great sounding guitar!!

    • The best guitar I've ever played, Cordoba C9.
Style: Cedar
Craftmanship is first class, my guitar is flawless. The sound is fantastic, the height of the strings is perfect! I have played many guitars, only classical music and trust me, it is totally worth the money. The basses are warm yet powerful, the trebles are clear and sweet with outstanding sustenance. One last thing, the strings came with hard tension, even I felt that it was a bit too hard. I then replaced it with D'Addario EJ45TT ProArte, PERFECT! This is not for beginner, you should opt for a Yamaha CG192 or CG182 and save three hundred of dollars instead. ... show more
