Manuel Rodriguez FC Cutaway Cedar EIRW #266

Comments:

This classical guitar represents one of Manuel’s beginning line of All Solid Wood guitars and builds, using the best woods available to him and built in his shop in Spain.  I also have full paperwork available for international shipping, CITES and Lacey Act Paperwork, provided by Manuel himself.

The cutaway gives you the obvious access to upper frets, while the Fishman PreSys Blend is a sweet unit, giving you a great stage sound, with easy access to the battery pack.  Very smart.

She is beautiful.  The Western Red Cedar has deep lines, straight and true, while the East Indian Rosewood is simply superb.  The rosette and bindings are spectacular, using various woods including PurpleHeart. Her sound is deeply Spanish, as expected from one of the premier builders in the region.  This is a truly exceptional Spanish instrument.

Media:

MP3 – 190614-Manuel Rodriguez FC Cutaway Cedar EIRW #266 – great playing guitar with a superb sound acoustically, never mind plugged in.  I recorded this acoustically, to give you a most certain idea of her natural sound.  The Fishman Presys pickup system works as you would expect, with an accessible battery compartment that folds out (smart).  I play Sam’s Lullaby and Here Comes the Sun (Beatles).  The recording was interrupted, my recorder (Apple machine) is probably in need of replacement at this point.  Sorry about that.  Great guitar, however!
