Solid Wood Construction and Spanish Bracing for Superb Resonance

The C5-CE's solid Engelmann spruce top and mahogany back and sides give notes a richness and depth that laminates cannot match. Spanish fan bracing, a traditional technique, optimizes vibration for a full, balanced sound across the tonal spectrum. The results are an instrument with projection suited for any venue and timbre that brings out the best in nylon strings.

Fishman Presys II Preamp: Plug in and Play

When it's time to take the stage, the Fishman Presys II preamp lets you amplify your C5-CE with the turn of a dial. Adjustable controls for volume, bass, middle and treble frequencies allow you to shape your tone to suit the performance space. A built-in tuner ensures you're in tune before stepping into the spotlight. Seamless plug-and-play functionality gives you one less thing to worry about so you can focus on your playing.

Other Premium Appointments

The C5-CE sports premium appointments that make it a joy to play. A mahogany neck with pau ferro fingerboard offers a familiar, comfortable feel. Die-cast tuners keep your guitar in tune through long practice sessions and performances. A satin finish protects the wood while allowing it to resonate freely. Together with the cutaway, these features create an instrument that plays as good as it sounds.
