The Orchestra CE is one of the most popular crossover guitars made by Córdoba, and this is the left handed version! With a solid Canadian cedar top and Indian rosewood back and sides, this model’s main feature is its slim neck profile and only 12 frets to the body, which maximizes the amount of resonance and vibration across the soundboard. It’s the perfect blend of classic Spanish designs with modern aesthetics—a hand-inlaid wooden rosette, elegant mahogany binding and a high gloss PU finish. Ready to plug in and play, the Orchestra CE comes equipped with the Fishman Presys Blend preamp and includes a deluxe Córdoba gig bag.

Design Features
The Orchestra CE belongs to Córdoba’s Fusion series, a line of high quality crossover/hybrid nylon string guitars designed to play and feel like steel string acoustics. With the option of 12 or 14 frets to the body on most models, these slimmer dimensions combined with a radiused fingerboard give the Fusion series the feel and playability that most steel string and electric guitar players prefer. Tonally, the Fusion series models have all the warmth, body, and resonance that traditional “classical” nylon string guitars are known for, and are built using traditional Spanish guitar methods like domed soundboards and fan bracing patterns.
All Fusion guitars feature Savarez Corum Alliance strings that offer the higher tension feel that most crossover players want.
