Mastery in craftsmanship.
SIGNATURE LEGACY is the concentration of decades of experience in guitar making in the Rodríguez family.
Luthier Manuel Rodríguez III builds exquisite guitars in his private workshop on the Iberian Peninsula, 100% by hand from precious tonewoods. Some of these woods have been in the family for generations and some are up to 50 years old.
These exquisite gems have all the characteristics that distinguish a masterful classical guitar.
Each top is individually selected by hand.
Nothing other than the original Spanish heel construction comes into consideration for the light cedro neck. In this royal class of guitar making, the one-piece neck extends into the body and is directly connected to the sides, back and top. This not only ensures enormous stability, but also optimal vibration transmission, faster response and longer sustain.
The exquisite ebony fingerboard and body of these excellent instruments are inlaid with unique inlays of individual beauty and elegance.
To round off the sound, the instrument is individually fitted as desired with high-quality strings from Hannabach, Made in Germany.
All guitars are delivered in a luxury case.
Each individual instrument is unique and was made by a master craftsman. Therefore, a waiting period of several months should always be expected for these unique pieces that are full of character.
For more than 115 years, GUITARRAS MANUEL RODRÍGUEZ has been making instruments in the tradition of the Madrid School of Spanish guitar making.
The family business was founded in Madrid in 1905, making it the second oldest guitar manufacturer south of the Pyrenees. Today's Luthier Manuel Rodríguez III grew up in California and Spain and is already the third generation to practise his craft. The cosmopolitan way of life that so characterises Manuel is reflected in each and every instrument. Their unique grace and unmistakable sound result from the skilful combination of the tradition and modernity of the craft, the history and future of music, and the craftsmanship and experience of the builders.
"We live the development of our guitars with passion, through which we have increasingly succeeded from generation to generation in perfecting a centuries-old manufacturing technique more and more." - Manuel Rodriguez III.
In cooperation with GEWA music, Manuel Rodriguez has now redesigned his guitar series from the ground up, setting clear quality standards. Not least because of this, ECOLOGÍA, TRADICÍON, ACADEMIA, SUPERIOR and MAGISTRAL are manufactured in Europe under his personal supervision. The SIGNATURE LEGACY uniques even come directly from Spain, where the master still runs his own workshop.
GUITARRAS MANUEL RODRÍGUEZ - Rich in sound, history and beauty since 1905.
