Watch as Brandon Schmidt of Cordoba Guitars demonstrates one of the new Master Series models, a reproduction of a vintage nylon-stringed classical/flamenco instrument made in 1931 by famed Madrid luthier Domingo Esteso. The back and sides are constructed of solid Palo Escrito (Mexican rosewood) and the top is either European spruce or Canadian cedar.

The details, from the bracing to the perloid rosette, are taken directly from one of Esteso’s guitars.
