Manuel Rodriguez LUTHIER MANUEL RODRÍGUEZ Concert Guitar - Caballero by MR - Principio 7/8 - Solid Spruce Top - Back/Sides Sapelli Mahogany - CA-PM 7/8 Spruce

The Caballero by MR Principio concert guitars with a solid spruce top are designed for beginners and advanced players seeking a clear, brilliant sound with high projection. Inspired by the family tradition of Manuel Rodríguez, these guitars represent the beginning, the "Principio" of musical growth, and offer the first touch with instruments that are lightweight, well-balanced, and user-friendly. The spruce top produces a direct, powerful sound, particularly suitable for solo playing, dynamic expressions, and demanding passages. The various sizes (1/2 to 4/4) allow children, teenagers, and adults to find the right instrument for their body size and playing level. The sapelli mahogany back and sides support resonance and stability, while the ovangkol fingerboard and bridge ensure precise tone separation. The okoumé neck with carbon reinforcement guarantees reliable tuning stability and a comfortable playing feel. The open-pore matte finish with a water base allows the wood to vibrate freely, while the wood mosaic rosette, gold-plated tuners, and original Hannabach strings (Made in Germany) highlight the quality and visual charm of the instrument.
