Stunning Classical Nylon Acoustic
The Cordoba Esteso SP classical guitar represents decades of traditional lutherie from a company committed to offering players classic design elements and tone, as well as modern refinements. An homage to one of Spain’s most revered luthiers, Domingo Esteso, the SP benefits from the painstaking design research and build techniques that went into classical guitars that are to this day considered some of the finest ever made. The Esteso SP features a solid European spruce top with solid pau ferro back and sides for a gorgeous blend of punchy treble, robust midrange, and full, warm low end. This tonewood combination lets single notes and rolled chords ring fully, and the fast, even decay of each tonal expression means an uncluttered harmonic performance — ideal attributes for classical guitar. A stunning mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard offers amazing response and smooth playability for exploring the intricate techniques inherent to playing classical guitar pieces, from complex chordal forms to fast scalar runs that move up and down the neck.
Meticulous, stunning details
Like all instruments in their Select Series line, the Esteso SP is handcrafted in small batches by a collection of elite luthiers. The results of this meticulous, expert attention to detail are stunning appointments that captivate the eye as well as enhance the tone of the Esteso SP. To begin, a flamed maple binding and maple-and-black rope-pattern top inlay are beautiful complements to the natural beige of the spruce top. In addition, a uniquely designed Esteso soundhole rosette with mother-of-pearl inlays adds even more visual intrigue to this beautiful classical guitar. A pau ferro bridge and genuine bone saddle enhance resonance and sustain. Further, classical guitarists have found the ultra-thin polyurethane finish provides wonderful protection to this fine instrument without hindering the vital vibration of the soundboard.
