Up for sale is a Cordoba Luthier Select Series Friederich nylon classical guitar with a Cedar Top and Rosewood back and sides. This one came in with damage to the back upper bout around the edge that was repaired here by one of our techs. It was sealed and now stable in that area again, it does have some dings in the finish on the front back side and may have some light scratching. This is still a wonderful sounding guitar and plays fantastic. If you can live with a repair to the top edge this may be a great deal for you. Comes with the Cordoba hardshell Humicase.

It has the word "Used" gently pressed into the back of the headstock and the serial number has been partially altered and given a new one per agreements with the manufacturer. This ensures you are getting a quality instrument that has been inspected, setup, repaired if needed and ready to play upon arrival.

The Cordoba Friederich is a salute to Daniel Friederich who is a French guitar builder know for his craftsmanship and incorporates his 7 fan bracing design among other touches.This Friederich is extremely nice and plays very well with clarity. There is one repaired finish crack (pictured).

"Daniel Friederich was influenced by the legendary French luthier Robert Bouchet and has established himself as one of the most respected and influential luthiers in the world. Based out of France, Daniel Friederich made a name for himself with not only the silky, responsive tone of his instruments with powerful basses which project even in a large hall, but also with the graceful body shape and distinctive carved headstock adorning his guitars. The Luthier Select Friederich model salutes these construction methods, utilizing Friederich’s seven fan bracing pattern with delicately, hand-carved spruce braces and a solid Canadian cedar top. Featuring elegantly grained solid rosewood back and sides with rosewood binding, the Friederich’s understated beauty is made real with an intricate wood rosette and iconic carved headstock. The Friederich is finished using an ultra-thin Polyurethane finish to protect the delicate instrument without impeding the vibration of the soundboard. Complete with an included Deluxe Humidified Archtop wood case, the Luthier Select Friederich offers players a chance to enjoy the exemplary sound and feel of one of history’s premier luthiers."
