The Manuel Rodríguez ECOLOGÍA series draws on the traditions of European guitar-making practised by our great-grandfathers. In those days, only the tonewood that grew locally and was readily available was used. It was not until much later that international trade – including in tropical woods – supplanted the local woods that had been tried and tested for decades.
At its core, the series is built on these old traditions and is therefore ecologically state-of-the-art. Not a single tropical wood is used. Instead, European woods such as spruce, walnut, maple and acacia are used. Furthermore, only water-based eco-friendly matt varnish is used. This holistic, ecologically sustainable design clearly sets the ECOLOGÍA series apart from other guitars.
In terms of sound, the instruments are moderately balanced and designed for a well-rounded tone. This is ensured, among other things, by the traditional neck construction with a dovetail joint, which guarantees not only high stability but also excellent vibration transmission.
A special feature of all 4/4 guitars by Manuel Rodríguez is the GEWA armrest, which offers two key advantages: Its rounded shape ensures a particularly comfortable playing feel and allows the top to vibrate freely across its entire surface, as it prevents damping caused by the right arm resting on it.
More sound, more comfort.
Hannabach 815HTC strings, manufactured in Germany, are fitted at the factory and perfectly complement the sound concept of this series.
The instruments in the Manuel Rodríguez ECOLOGÍA series are available in all five standard sizes, right down to the small 1/4-size guitar.
