“To honor Córdoba’s 20th anniversary, we wanted to design a guitar that combined a bit of the company’s past with where we are now, and maybe even gave a glimpse of where we are going in the future. The first challenge was what should it look like. We took inspiration from the Córdoba Mosque in Spain, a monument that heavily influenced our CEO Tim during his early travels. We studied its beautifully ornate architecture, and quickly the design for the rosette came together, based off of the Córdoba arches.”
“We wanted the guitar to have a “Spanish” sound, but still maintain a modern feel. We went with a traditional symmetrical 7 fan bracing, with some modern tweaks, and a solid Englemann spruce top to give a big percussive sound without losing its tonal sweetness. Overall the guitar is fitting for our 20th anniversary–it’s a perfect example of where we are right now, with respect to our past.” – Andrew Enns
