Our first guitar originally released in the late 1990s, the Spanish-made FCWE is a piece of Córdoba history. It features a solid European spruce top and solid Spanish cypress back and sides with Spanish fan bracing for optimal projection.

Design Features

Ready to take the stage with you, the FCWE’s powerful built-in Fishman Prefix ProBlend preamp and thinbody design helps reduce feedback when the guitar is amplified at high volumes. Low action and little relief in the neck make this guitar comfortable and easy to play. A two-way truss rod is built into the Spanish cedar neck for longterm stability. Other premium features include an ebony fingerboard, Indian rosewood binding and bridge, a clear flamenco-style tap plate, and Savarez Cristal Corum strings. Comes in a humidified Humicase Protege case.
