Thanks, Jay. As before, I appreciate your feedback, and I feel confident that your company is addressing these problems. Although I add the caveat to play before buying, I feel comfortable recommending the Cordoba brand below the $1k level despite my experience. (I have yet to see any of your European models.)

However, while acknowledging that neck angle is somewhat subjective, I'd like to note that the problem, as I saw it, was that those two Fusions had fairly high action with what I consider proper neck relief, and neither had enough saddle material above the bridge to lower the action without also altering the bridge. Of course, it's possible that the guitars were a little "wet," but my Fusion had the same action and neck relief with a considerably taller saddle. Again, this is just FYI.
