Overview
The Manuel Rodríguez Café Cortado (Aged Eucalyptus) is a European-crafted 4/4 electro-acoustic classical guitar that blends Spanish artisanal heritage with modern performance capability. It features a solid spruce top accented with a central cedar strip for tonal clarity and balance, paired with richly grained aged eucalyptus back and sides finished in a high-gloss coat for both visual depth and resonant warmth. The cutaway body and ergonomic Spanish heel provide smooth upper-fret access without compromising acoustic integrity.
Equipped with the high-quality ARTEC SQ-3 preamp system, this model includes a Solidflex bridge pickup, 3-band EQ, anti-feedback phase switch, volume control, and an integrated LED tuner—everything needed for stage or studio. Premium appointments include a GEWA armrest, rosewood fingerboard, Indian rosewood bridge, vintage oiled bone nut and saddle, and Hannabach 815HTC high-tension strings. It is delivered with a prestige arched case, strap, and security locks, performance-ready out of the box.
