Ortega Requinto Series Nylon String, Natural Cedar Overview
The Ortega Requinto Series Nylon String embraces Mexican and Latin American traditions and carries a vast history of guitar-making excellence. Whilst still showcasing the beauty of the classical guitar, this smaller version features a shorter scale length for a more compact, road-worthy build and smooth playability. And it doesn't sacrifice sound either. The deeper body allows for exceptional volume and a gorgeously rich tone, making it the perfect gigging acoustic without amplification.
A glorious, complex tone exudes in abundance from the cedar top, perfect for fingerpicking styles. Sapele back and sides will then ensure you have delicious tonal warmth as well as that all-important top end definition, making for a superbly versatile instrument. Pair this with a sublime walnut fretboard and an okoume neck, and you have long-lasting guitar, ever-growing sonic qualities, and a sumptuous, magical playing experience.

View Full DescriptionNot your traditional guitar...
Feel the magnificence of a classical guitar, and yet experience the smooth playability and thrilling sound of a shorter scaler length and deeper body. Inspired by Mexican and Latin American traditions, Ortega have created a masterpiece that combines great tone with comfort and portability. Smaller than the classical guitar, this version features a 535mm scale length, making for a more compact build that is ready to take on the road. And it plays beautifully too. Fret without hindrance, nail those complex techniques, and let every single note flow in silky-smooth fashion. There's nothing holding you back.
It might be small, but that doesn't mean it compromises on tone. The beauty of a 110mm body depth - deeper than your usual small body guitar - is the stunning, natural amplification for your chords to swim in. Ideal for smaller venues and times when amplification isn't possible, the Requinto Series Nylon String delivers exceptional volume, promising to engulf everyone in its presence.
An expertly crafted body
A stunning cedar top. It's been a classical guitar favourite for years, so you know you can rely on it. Cedar delivers captivating sonic qualities that are full of rich overtones and character, making it a wonderful choice for players who prefer fingerpicking styles. And you won't miss out on gorgeous tonal warmth either, sapele back and sides promise a beautifully balanced sound that has both richness and sparkle.
Built for effortless fretting
Let your fingers slide fearlessly across the walnut fretboard. Its silky-smooth finish lends itself to any fast fretting technique whilst the okoume neck provides brilliant strength and durability.
