Created with Tosin Abasi to bring modern extended-range thinking into the nylon-string world, the Cordoba Abasi Stage 7 Acacia 7-string acoustic-electric guitar is built for players who demand precision, balance and ergonomic comfort. Known for redefining technical guitar with Animals as Leaders, Tosin applies his forward-looking design philosophy here through a chambered mahogany body, a multi-scale fan-fret neck, and stage-ready Fishman electronics. Finished with a solid spruce top and premium acacia veneer, the Abasi Stage 7 Acacia delivers a focused, contemporary nylon voice designed for reliable performance in both studio and live environments.
Multi-Scale Fan-Fret Design Balances Tension Across Seven Strings
The Abasi Stage 7 Acacia features a fan-fret scale measuring 27.5" on the bass side and 25.5" on the treble side, keeping string tension even and intonation accurate across the extended range. A flat C-shape mahogany neck, compound 16"–22" fingerboard radius, and 24 frets support advanced techniques such as tapping, wide interval voicings, and extended-range chord work. Offset dot inlays provide clear visual reference while maintaining a clean, modern aesthetic.
Fishman Stage Electronics Deliver Controlled, Natural Amplification
The Fishman Stage pickup system blends under-saddle piezo and body sensors to capture both articulation and resonance. Master volume, EQ, and body blend controls allow you to dial in anything from focused, cutting nylon tones to fuller sounds with enhanced low end and percussive body response. This system is designed to sit clearly in a live mix while preserving the expressive character of nylon strings.
Chambered Mahogany Body Enhances Focus and Reduces Feedback
A chambered mahogany body keeps weight down and minimizes feedback at higher stage volumes, making the Abasi Stage 7 well suited for amplified performance. The solid spruce top with premium acacia veneer adds projection, stiffness and visual distinction, supported by custom fan bracing and a side oval soundhole that further refine clarity and response.
Durable Materials and Hardware Built for Touring Use
Rosewood components for the fingerboard, bridge, and headplate provide a smooth playing surface and long-term durability. A dual-action truss rod supports neck stability across changing environments, while brushed brass Cordoba tuning machines deliver precise, reliable tuning across all seven strings. Black and brushed brass hardware and a satin finish are chosen to withstand regular travel and performance.
A Nylon 7-String for Players Redefining the Instrument
Designed for musicians exploring hybrid picking, extended-range melodies and modern nylon techniques, the Cordoba Abasi Stage 7 Acacia offers a focused, ergonomic platform built around real performance needs. Whether inspired by Tosin’s intricate compositions or forging a new path, this guitar delivers the articulation, balance and amplified control required to bring progressive ideas confidently from practice to the stage.
