I have a little knowledge of the "Fusion" model Cordoba guitars, they are only slightly thinner in the body than a standard Classical. However, they have a much thinner neck than standard classical guitars. The width at the nut is either 1 3/4 or 1 7/8 also very similar to steel string guitars. It makes the transition from steel string to nylon easier for folks.

I've owned a Cordoba GK Pro Negra for 2 years now. Aside from the cutaway, the body size and shape is the same as my other standard classical guitars. The width at the nut is 1.96"... Not quite as wide as some standard classical guitars, but definitely not a "crossover" width like the "fusion".

For my personal use; the GK Pro Negra is the perfect tool to play a variety of music. While it's not a true classical guitar, it provides gives me the right tone to play quite a few classical pieces & can easily transition to jazz or pop music. FWIW- I rarely play amplified...

hope this helps

Dave
