Overview
The Manuel Rodríguez Café Cortado (Santos Rosewood) is a standout 4/4 electro-acoustic classical guitar that merges modern design with Spanish craftsmanship. Its resonance-rich solid spruce top, accented with a central cedar stripe, delivers clarity and dynamic tonal evolution. The beautifully grained laminated Santos rosewood back and sides with a high-gloss finish provide both aesthetic luxury and warm projection. A cutaway body, ergonomic Spanish heel, and GEWA armrest ensure playing comfort and high-fret accessibility without compromising resonance.
Performance-ready, it includes the professional-grade ARTEC SQ-3 preamp with a Solidflex bridge pickup, 3-band EQ, anti-feedback phase switch, and built-in LED tuner—making it ideal for amplified settings. Premium appointments include a rosewood fingerboard and bridge, vintage oiled bone nut and saddle, and Hannabach 815HTC high-tension strings. Delivered with a prestige arched case, strap, and locks, it’s ready for both stage and studio.
