Previously, the guitar was viewed by the larger concert-going public as a somewhat limited folk instrument, belonging at home, or at most as a parlor instrument for the aristocratic elite. After rejecting many of German guitar maker Hermann Hauser's first attempts at building a Spanish style instrument, Segovia finally accepted one built in 1937, deeming it the greatest guitar of our epoch. It was with this Hauser that Segovia tirelessly concertized and recorded for decades, winning over audiences and critics little by little until the classical guitar's position was secured as a concert worthy instrument. This 1937 Hauser is now regarded one of the most iconic guitars in history.

Córdoba’s Rodriguez is built with a solid Canadian cedar top, solid Indian rosewood back and sides and a fan bracing pattern with a transverse brace. This gives the guitar a distinctively “Spanish” sound—warm, lush and round, with bouncing basses and fat, singing trebles. It offers an instant responsiveness and a big, explosive attack at the beginning of every note. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e(\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/xguitars.myshopify.com\/pages\/pronunciation-of-alhambra-and-cordoba\" title=\"Pronunciation of Cordoba\"\u003eClick here\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e to hear the pronunciation of \"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\" href=\"https:\/\/xguitars.myshopify.com\/pages\/pronunciation-of-alhambra-and-cordoba\" title=\"Pronunciation of Cordoba\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCórdoba\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\".)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Rodriguez?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe Rodriguez family of guitar makers produced incredible instruments for nearly 100 years in the southernmost region of Spain—deep in Andalucia, in the picturesque Moorish city of Córdoba. We honed in on a specific model from the 1970s era, when the Rodriguez guitars shifted to a build favoring an expansion in the size and depth of the body with fewer braces (5 rather than 7). The result is a guitar that pumps out sound in a lively, efficient manner with little effort on the part of the player. The Córdoba Rodriguez mimics its predecessor, built by Miguel Rodriguez Serrano, with its large yet lightweight build and immediate response and outstanding projection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCordoba's Approach\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe embarked on designing the Córdoba Rodriguez by examining an authentic 1970s Rodriguez from the inside out.

After examining three authentic Torres guitars, we decided to base the construction of our own Torres on an 1856 model that features a smaller body (24.8\") and shorter scale length (640mm). The Cordoba Torres is built with a solid Engelmann spruce top and solid Indian rosewood back and sides. The neck is Spanish cedar, topped with an African ebony fingerboard. A few modern refinements such as a truss rod, geared tuning machines, durable finish, and non-gut strings were added to improve on what was not available in the 1800s but are essential today. The result is an instrument that exemplifies authentic Torres designs, voicing, and feel, and captures a rare piece of guitar making history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Process:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe three original Torres guitars were studied inside and out and played over and over. The mission was to understand the essence of what gives this iconic guitar such an amazing voice and feel, and then recreate an instrument that possesses these characteristics and carries the same magic in its DNA. The process was a combination of science and feel; the wood thicknesses of the top, backs, sides, and braces were measured to the nearest hundredth of a millimeter, bracing patterns traced and mapped, and details of the materials, inlays, wood grains, and vibrations were all carefully analyzed. The guitars were played and listened to for hours to gain an understanding of the balance between the trebles and basses, resonance of the tops, and a sense for the feel and response of each guitar when played in a variety of styles and environments. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Torres?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAntonio de Torres was one of the most important guitar makers of the 19th century, building between the early 1850s and 1892. Today, a Torres guitar is as revered and collectible among guitarists as a Stradivarius violin is among violinists. Torres created a body shape, bracing pattern, soundboard arch, and other design elements that were revolutionary for his time, transforming the guitar into a much louder and resonant instrument with more projection than any guitar before its time. Torres guitars are still the elite standard by which classical guitars are compared with today, and most acoustic guitars in use today are derived from his designs. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade in USA\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop: \u003c\/strong\u003eSolid Engelmann Spruce\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack\/Sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid Indian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spanish Cedar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFret Dots at Frets:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e V \u0026amp; VII\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRosette:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mosaic Rope \u0026amp; Herringbone Marquetry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Master Series Tuning Machines -

I bought it as a backup to my main guitar, an exceptional blanca from a well known Nor-Cal builder which cost me $4000 used. I find myself playing the Rosa Morena more, and the blanca less, as it has a punchier and crisper bass, which is not at all boomy or muddy. Very nice on Tarantas. Perhaps I found out I like negras better than blancas, but this is the first negra I've played that I like. It seems to have the good qualities of a negra without the bad, IMO, many of which sounded too much like classicals.
