Manuel Rodriguez LUTHIER MANUEL RODRÍGUEZ Electro-Acoustic Concert Guitar - Caballero by MR - Principio 4/4 Electro-Acoustic Cutaway - Solid Cedar Top - Back/Sides Sapelli Mahogany - CA-CM CE 4/4 Cedar

The Caballero by MR Principio electro-acoustic with solid cedar top combines the warm, sustaining sound of classical guitars with the flexibility of modern electro-acoustic instruments. Developed in close collaboration between Manuel Rodríguez and the German GEWA development team, these guitars offer an ideal entry into the world of instrumental playing. The solid cedar top ensures soft, resonant sound with quick response, while back and sides made of Sapelli mahogany provide balanced resonance and fingerboard and bridge made of Ovangkol ensure clear tone separation. The neck made of Okoumé with carbon reinforcement guarantees high stability, torsional stiffness and even playability. The integrated GEWA ETC-4 preamp with 4-band EQ and tuner allows for amplified play on stage, studio or rehearsal room. The open-pore matt lacquer on a water basis underscores the natural feel, while wood mosaic rosette, gilded machine heads and Original Hannabach 600HT strings (Made in Germany) round off the instrument acoustically and visually.
