Overview

A handmade 1/8th sized guitar with surprisingly rich tone.

The smallest guitar in the Iberia series, Cordoba's 1/8 size Requinto 480 guitar is handmade with a solid cedar top and mahogany back and sides. The hand-inlaid all-natural wood rosette and Indian rosewood detailing distinguishes this model from other guitars in this price range. It is designed with the traditional 5-fan Torres style bracing to produce a rich Spanish sound in spite of its diminutive string length. Ideal for children learning how to play nylon string guitars.
