Beautifully Designed Classical Nylon-string from Cordoba
The Protégé C1 Matiz Acoustic Guitar from Cordoba is that perfect instrument for the beginning or emerging guitarist looking for a full-size nylon-string guitar. The C1 Matiz features a spruce top with mahogany back and sides, producing a beautiful blend of low end and punchy midrange with upfront treble. A smooth mahogany neck with maple fingerboard offers immaculate response and playability, ideal for exploring classical passages up and down the neck. We love that Cordoba also included plenty of stage-ready appointments and design elements on the C1, including a wood-inlaid ghost rosette soundhole, a maple bridge, and a high-gloss polyurethane finish that really allows the natural spruce shine.
Ultra-comfortable neck
The "C"-shaped neck profile of the Protégé C1 is an ultra-comfortable cut that all players will love. The "C"-profile neck is widely considered the most comfortable cut for not only newer players but seasoned ones as well. The gradual curve mimics the shape of the letter "C" and rests nicely in the hand, making for easier chording and scalar runs.
