I bought this very nice guitar a few weeks ago.
A Cordoba Stage guitar.
The sound unplugged is adequate, but it was meant to be plugged in.
The sound plugged in is almost unbelievable!
Straight into an amp it’s great, but when I added my Empress Para EQ it was WOW!
I’m also using my Boss Flanger, which I never really cared for on bass, but now it’s found its home.
My playing leaves a lot to be desired, but you won’t be attending any of my concerts anytime soon.
The Cordoba.

It looks pritty! How does it play? You've already described how it sounds, so is it a keeper?
It plays very well for me.
I started out on a nylon string guitar when I was a kid.
I'd forgotten how good they feel compared to regular steel six strings.
I have big hands, and sometimes fretting was a problem for me, but not on the Cordoba Stage.
I also had forgotten how much I love the sound of a nylon string guitar.
I'm really considering selling my three steel strings, but not for now.
I'm serious: If you, and anyone reading this has a chance, check one of these out.
And don't play it through a regular guitar amp if possible; I'm using a Fender Acoustisonic 40 amp.
It goes perfectly with this guitar.
Check one out.

Here’s a video.
And, it sounds like this through my amp!

When I was looking for a guitar with P-90s, I considered one of these, but couldn't get it to stay in tune.
So 8 passed,
Still a cool looking guitar with P-90 and Filtertron

What my Les Paul copy looked like before the major mod.
Pickguard off, gold speed knobs instead of black witch hats, pickup covers removed.
It looked like this for several years

Perhaps the next Marshmello…
…but probably more like the next Buckethead…
