The Cordoba Luthier Select Series embodies the pinnacle of acoustic guitar design and fine craftsmanship, bringing together peak instrument making and tradition. Handcrafted in small batches by elite luthiers, this series revives the iconic designs that have shaped the modern classical guitar. With over 15 years of dedication to perfecting nylon-string instruments, Cordoba collaborates globally to deliver authentic tone, enhanced playability, and longevity. The Luthier Select series pays homage to legendary luthiers, showcasing Cordoba’s growth in quality and manufacturing. Inspired by Domingo Esteso, a revered Spanish luthier of the 20th century, the Esteso model is crafted after meticulous study of his guitars, capturing their signature light weight and responsive volume. The delicate hand-carved spruce bracing paired with premium top woods recreates Esteso’s renowned full tone. The solid pau ferro back and sides offer the tonal richness of rosewood with lighter weight and beautiful figure, complemented by flamed maple binding and intricate mother-of-pearl inlay. Finished with an ultra-thin polyurethane coating, the Esteso preserves the soundboard’s vibration while being protected. It comes with a Deluxe Humidified Archtop wood case, offering an immersive experience of one of history’s finest luthiers.
