Default X5 sighting

While looking around for used X7 nylon string guitars I ran across the X5 on reverb. It's a steel string so not on my list. But interesting.

This video by Jocelyn Ong in Singapore led to an Internet search for X5 which led me to the AGF Carbon Fibre Forum.

X5 is, indeed, a very small guitar OK for playing at home but much too quiet for jamming.

Casual; This video is apparently "unavailable." But that's Ok, I played one of the 1st 5s out of Ireland.

I bought anX5 for my wife back in about 2015. She didn’t care for it, so we sold it. Then in 2017 I bought her in an X7 - not the newer model, but the previous model. She didn’t care for that either, so we sold it.

In 2018 I bought a Cordoba GK pro for me. She immediately adopted it, and she has hardly touched or two-decades-favorite Taylor steel string guitar since then.

Cordoba makes nice guitars. I've owned 3; a full size, the Mini, and the Mini II. Each reflects a high level of quality. I can see why your wife adopted the GK.
