Designed with Tosin Abasi to push nylon strings far beyond their traditional role, the Cordoba Abasi Stage 7 7-string acoustic-electric guitar is built for players who demand precision, extended range, and modern ergonomics on stage. Known for redefining technical guitar with Animals as Leaders, Tosin brings his forward-thinking approach to this instrument, pairing a multi-scale fan-fret neck with a chambered solid body for clarity, balance, and feedback resistance. From intricate low-string passages to articulate high-register lines, the Abasi Stage 7 delivers a focused, contemporary nylon voice engineered for reliable live performance and detailed studio work.
Multi-Scale Fan-Fret Design Balances Tension Across Seven Strings
The Abasi Stage 7 features a fan-fret, multi-scale neck measuring 27.5" on the bass side and 25.5" on the treble side, keeping string tension even and intonation accurate across all seven strings. A compound 16"–22" fingerboard radius and offset dot inlays support natural hand movement and clear visual reference at speed. This geometry makes extended-range techniques feel controlled and comfortable without sacrificing clarity.
Fishman Stage Electronics Deliver Articulate Amplified Tone
Equipped with the Fishman Stage pickup system, this guitar blends piezo and body sensors for a detailed, stage-ready signal. Master volume, EQ, and body blend controls let you dial in anything from focused, cutting nylon tones to fuller sounds with added body resonance and percussive tap response. The result is an amplified tone that sits clearly in a 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, while a solid spruce top with a premium flame maple veneer adds articulation and a modern aesthetic. Custom fan bracing and a side oval soundhole further shape projection and clarity, reinforcing the guitar’s controlled, contemporary acoustic response.
Durable Materials and Hardware Built for Performance
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, while brushed brass Cordoba tuning machines deliver reliable, precise tuning across all seven strings. Every material choice is made with touring and demanding performance environments in mind.
A Nylon 7-String for Players Redefining the Instrument
Created for musicians exploring complex arrangements, hybrid picking, and extended-range nylon techniques, the Cordoba Abasi Stage 7 offers a unique platform that rewards precision and experimentation. Whether you’re drawing inspiration from Tosin’s intricate compositions or forging your own path, this guitar delivers the ergonomics, articulation and amplified control needed to bring modern nylon-string playing confidently to the stage.
