New Cordoba Stage nylon electric review

[Rudy4]

Here's a new review of the Cordoba Stage nylon strung electric guitar that's very well done. I enjoy Alamo Music's reviews and this one is also informative, entertaining, and presents the guitar honestly.

Good review - and some very tasty playing.

I saw one of these hanging in my local GC a few weeks ago - seems like a pretty good option if you’re in the market for an instrument of this type. I picked it up and played it for a while, but I’m not well-enough versed with nylon string instruments to be able to discern a use for it.

I do find it oddly tempting, however.

The use of the nylon strung electric runs the gamut of Chet Atkins playing his Nylon strung Gibson, though Willie Nelson solos and extending through modern era players like Tim Henson of Polyphia.

The cool thing about this is that there are more and more players who are embracing the new crop of nylon strung electrics. My personal interest stems from how easy it is to appease my aching muscles. Nylons play like butter and have a tone that just isn't available otherwise.

I've been posting a few tunes played on my dumpster-picked nylon strung guitar in the Show and Tell section, "Adventures in CGDGBE tuning".

I live about a mile from a GC, went down there yesterday to try one out. Their website said they had one in stock. Turned out someone bought it the night before. Might have to drive to the faraway GC now.
