Heyo, im about to purchase the cordoba stage. How would you recommend the instrument once recieving it?
@CryoCeII
Жыл бұрын
I would say play it for a couple of weeks, get familiar with it and then change the strings to D'Addario XT Coated Classical Guitar Strings. They are what I personally use. They sound great and have a good lifespan per replacement. The Stage already comes pre-setup so unless you have really bad fret buzz or issues with certain frets sounding flat or sharp you shouldn't need to have it setup. Hope this answers your question!
this sounds absolutely amazing, can you drop the backing track?

I really enjoy it. If you're looking to play some of Polyphia's stuff, plus use it for classical music then It's a great acoustic/electric hybrid. I would reccomend plugging it into an amp or your PC through a DAW and adding some reverb though. It adds a lot of life to its sound.

@@hesham8 I was too looking at the Multiac before buying the Stage. The price was a bit too much for me considering more expensive classical guitars have better voicing and resonance. Where as with a thin body nylon you're not going to get too much organic resonance and just end up plugging it in to get the sound you desire anyway.

What's your string action?

Жыл бұрын
Having as low as string action without getting fret buzz as possible is optimal. If you’re getting fret buzz then you may want to take it to a guitar tech, tell him what gauge strings you use and what tunings you typically play in and they’ll adjust it as low as they can without getting fret buzz.
