Enjoy rich tone and exquisite craftsmanship with the Cordoba C9 Parlor! The 7/8-sized Cordoba C9 Parlor is an excellent value in a nylon-string acoustic guitar. The handmade C9 Parlor sports mahogany back and sides with a Canadian cedar top, for rich tones with a lively presence. And the solid mahogany neck provides excellent sustain and detail. No matter your experience level, you'll love the attention to detail and excellent playability of the C9 Parlor. And with the gloss polyurethane finish, Indian rosewood binding, and a stylish rosette, the C9 Parlor looks as good as it plays. The Cordoba C9 Parlor even comes with a polyfoam softshell case!





Traditional design





The Cordoba C9 Parlor doesn't skimp on construction. The handmade C9 Parlor features a slightly smaller, 7/8-sized traditional classical guitar design, including the solid Canadian cedar top (choice top wood for classical guitars) and Spanish-style fan bracing. Fan bracing is preferred for classical guitars over lattice bracing, as it allows the guitar's top to vibrate more freely while still providing evenly balanced tone.

Quality tonewoods





The Cordoba C9 Parlor's solid mahogany back and sides set a powerful tonal foundation for the solid cedar top, giving you the right balance of warmth and brightness. The neck is solid mahogany, for maximum transfer of string energy to the cedar top. A rosewood fingerboard and Indian rosewood bridge complete the elegant look.





Great look, great playability





The Cordoba C9 Parlor is gorgeous to simply look at, from the detailed mother-of-pearl "Esteso" rosette inlay and Indian rosewood binding to the gold tuners with ebony buttons. And you'll love how the gloss finish shows off the Indian rosewood body and Canadian cedar top. But looks aren't everything, the C9 Parlor was designed with playability in mind, and the great look is just the icing on the classical cake.
