Rich in Sound, Rich in History, Rioh in Beauty.

All Rodriguez guitars are almost entirely handmade. No details is too minor to merit attention. The neck and headstock of Rodrigues guitars are typically made of Sapele or Cedar, often reinforced with two ebony strips on the underside of the fingerboard to give total rigidity and to eliminate movement caused as a result of the aging of the instrument.

Each Rodriguez in hand-formed and glued to create precise balances. From the invisible careful sanding, even inside the body, that ensures the finished instruments purity of tone, to the beautifully unique rosette inlays around the soundhole and on the back of the neck, each guitar is a credit to its luthier and worthy of being handed down form one generation to another.

The woods used in the construntion of Rodriguez guitars is carefully chosen, and aged impeccably to guarantee the highest quality. Because of their weight, hardness, stifness and beautiful colour, Cypress and Indian Rosewood are selected for the backs and sides. indian Rosewood, in particular, imparts the exquisite sound required for a classical guitar.
