What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Solid Canadian cedar top Warm and mellow sound; articulate feel
Mahogany back and sides Dry and airy tone; clear, present midrange
Fan bracing Classic design promotes resonance
Ebony fretboard Dark color, tight grain; premium fretboard wood

Along with the sweet, warm tone provided by its all-solid body, the handmade Cordoba C9 Parlor (7/8 Size) features the vintage elegance of a hand-inlaid mother-of-pearl rosette inspired by a 1920s Domingo Esteso design.

Like all Luthier Series guitars, the C9 Parlor is handmade by a small team of builders in a boutique workshop, using traditional Spanish construction techniques such as the Spanish heel, hand carved necks and braces, and domed soundboard. Like its full-size companion, the C9 CD, the C9 Parlor is made with a solid Canadian cedar top and solid mahogany back and sides. It includes a Cordoba Polyfoam Case.

This is a beautiful, great sounding guitar. Lots of value with this instrument. I have only one complaint which is the fret ends are rough, sharp and need attention. I have ordered a luthiers fret file that should take care of this. This is not consistant with the quality of the rest of the instrument unfortunately, but is fixable.

Musical Background:

Been playing for about 8 years for my own personal enjoyment. I also play piano
