Flamenco guitar Miguel Rodríguez 1946

This flamenco guitar was made by the legendary guitar maker Miguel Rodríguez Beneyto in his workshop, located in 15 Alfaros Street (Córdoba) in 1946. His guitars are objects of desire for collectors and performers all around the world because of both its meticulous construction and the personality they have.

The different woods in this flamenco guitar are of the top existing quality. The top are made of german spruce has a totally straight and even grain, which is quite accentuated. The back and sides are made of cypress wood, whose beauty and quality are simply magnificent. Miguel Rodríguez was extremely selective as regards the choice of the woods for the guitar making. He always seeked for nothing but excellence in acoustics and beauty, which can be appreciated in every single guitar he made all along his career.

This flamenco guitar is one of those instruments that, once you have it in front of you and try it, you would never want to part with it again. The timbre of Miguel Rodríguez’s guitars from this era is unmistakable and truly special. It is no surprise that these instruments are among the most sought-after. Their timbre is deeply flamenco, with a lot of body and presence. The trebles are sweet and crystalline, with surprising projection.

The action of this flamenco guitar is medium, with a very balanced string height both on the fretboard and the saddle, providing the guitarist with great comfort in both hands and ease in playing.

The condition of this flamenco guitar is very good. It has three cracks on the soundboard, repaired only with glue. All the cracks are perfectly repaired and documented in the attached images.
