Play Like a Gipsy King!

The Cordoba GK Pro Negra Gipsy Kings signature model nylon-string acoustic guitar combines a fast-playing feel with traditional flamenco construction techniques for a remarkable playing experience. The GK Pro Negra is built for tone, with solid Indian rosewood back and sides with a solid European spruce top. The mahogany neck is slightly thinner and narrower than traditional classical guitars for smooth playability. And the thinner body style is comfortable for players of any style. Not only do you get premium tonewoods, the GK Pro Negra shows Cordoba's attention to detail with a hand-inlayed wood rosette and premium gold tuners. You also get the Fishman Prefix ProBlend pickup system built right in. For a highly playable guitar with some beautiful appointments, you'll love the Cordoba GK Pro Negra.

Traditional design offers classic tones

The Cordoba GK Pro Negra doesn't skimp on construction. The GK Pro Negra features traditional handmade classical guitar design, including the solid European spruce top with Spanish-style fan bracing. Fan bracing is preferred for flamenco guitars over lattice bracing, allowing the guitar's top to vibrate more freely while still providing evenly balanced tone.

Premium tonewoods

While the Cordoba GK Pro Negra is inexpensive, Cordoba did not sacrifice quality materials. The solid Indian rosewood back and sides set a powerful tonal foundation for the solid European spruce top, giving you the right balance of warmth and brightness. The neck is solid mahogany, for maximum transfer of string energy to the spruce top. An ebony fingerboard and Indian rosewood bridge complete the elegant look.

Great look, great playability

The Cordoba GK Pro Negra is gorgeous to simply look at, from the detailed hand-inlayed rosette and Indian rosewood binding to the premium gold tuners. And you'll love how the gloss finish shows off the rosewood body and European spruce top. But looks aren't everything - the GK Pro Negra was designed with playability in mind, and the great look is just the icing on the classical cake.

Cordoba GK Pro Negra Gipsy Kings Signature Model Nylon-string Acoustic Guitar Features:

  • Great-sounding, fast-playing guitar at an amazing price
  • Traditional Spanish fan bracing provides a balanced, lively sound
  • Solid Indian rosewood back and sides for full-bodied frequency response
  • Solid European spruce top for excellent definition and projection
  • HumiCase Protege case included
  • Note: Tap plate not included. We recommend you take your guitar to an experienced luthier if you want one installed.

Great Classical Guitar

This guitar is a fabulous classical guitar. It is everything that I hoped it would be. If you are a classical player looking for a guitar that you can amplify, this is a great choice. I am mainly a classical player who dabbles in a bit of finger-picking pop. My wife is a flutist and we have a flute\guitar duo. I own a nice cedar top Takemine C132S classical that I love very much. However, I wanted a guitar that had electronics onboard, and could be easily amplified, but would still play and feel like a standard classical so that there would not be a big adjustment when switching between the two guitars. I was concerned because, it seems, that most Cordoba guitars that include electronics are "crossover" or "fusion" models designed for steel string players who want a nylon string guitar. After playing the GK Negra Studio version, which was quite impressive, especially for the money, I decided to go ahead and buy this "pro" version of the instrument. I am so glad that I did. The 1.96" is not noticeably smaller than a standard 2" classical neck. I have always been a cedar top fan but found that like the brightness of the spruce top. Ultimately, the instrument plays and feels like a beautifully made classical guitar which is exactly what I wanted. In comparison to my Takemine C132S, I have noticed that the Takemine has a louder bass response while this instrument really speaks well in the treble range. However, the bass response of the Cordoba is still well within the acceptable range. The electronics are exceptional. There is an onboard pickup as well as a microphone and you are able to blend the two to get the sound you want. There is a phase switch as well as a notch filter to further adjust your sound and limit bass or overtones in the frequency you select. Overall, I am very pleased with this guitar and would buy it again in a heartbeat. If you are a classical player who is seeking a guitar that will allow you to play standard repertoire and can be amplified easily, this is an excellent choice. Lastly, the guitar is beautiful and was obviously constructed with great care and attention to detail. I intend to have this guitar until I leave this earth.

First classical guitar

Picked up a gk pro negra last week surprising amount of bass for small body guitar. Tuners were pretty plasticky and feedback was an issue until I figured out the notch filter but after that sounded and played great.

Amazing Guitar

I was looking for a nylon string guitar for playing fingerstyle Rock and Jazz tunes, and wanted the ability to access higher frets and plug in to an acoustic amp for live performances. There aren't many guitars in this category, but thankfully the GK Pro Negra is a perfect fit. The sound is simply amazing - big and resonant, with beautiful mid and high end tones, and lots of sustain. I never knew a nylon string guitar could sound like this! The ebony fretboard and neck contour is extremely comfortable. It allows me to play complex chords and passages easier. The neck is slightly narrower than a traditional classical, but I don't really notice except that it allows for me to finger chords which are not playable to me on a traditional classical style neck. Out of the box, the string action and intonation are great, and the strings have just the right amount of tension. This is now my go-to guitar for both practicing and performing. Well done, Cordoba!

Cordoba GK Pro Negra

The quality and playability of this guitar is outstanding!
by Richard on

Very pleased with this guitar!

I was looking for a guitar that would fit between my Martin OMs and Yamaha GC32. In other words I wanted one guitar I could take along where I easily play classical and steel string finger style songs plus sounded great. Played a lot of different makes and models but the best overall were 90the Cordoba GK series guitars. I wasn't able to find a GK Pro Negra locally so turned to Sweetwater for one. I love this guitar! It covers all the bases. It sounds and plays beautifully. What a great instrument!
