Overview
The Manuel Rodriguez Exotica EX-SS-EA is a full-size 4/4 electric-acoustic classical guitar, combining traditional Spanish craftsmanship with modern stage-ready performance. It features a solid spruce top for bright, articulate tone, complemented by Santos rosewood back and sides for warmth, projection, and visual elegance. The mahogany neck, reinforced for stability, pairs with an ebony fingerboard for smooth playability and precise response. Built with a genuine Spanish heel, this instrument delivers outstanding resonance and long-term structural integrity.
Finished in a high-gloss, eco-friendly polyurethane lacquer, the EX-SS-EA showcases premium tonewoods with a refined look. It includes a discreet onboard pickup and preamp system, allowing you to plug in for live performances or recording without sacrificing the guitar’s natural acoustic voice. A 12-hole Indian rosewood bridge enhances string break angle and sustain, while a bone nut and compensated saddle ensure accurate intonation. Gold-plated lyra-style tuners with black buttons provide tuning stability, and the guitar comes strung with Hannabach high-tension strings for clarity, projection, and dynamic range.
