The Ortega Guitars R16PC Classical Guitar is a handcrafted nylon-string guitar designed for comfort, warmth, and smooth playability. Built in Portugal as part of Ortega’s Traditional Series, it combines a solid cedar top with aged eucalyptus back and sides for a rich, balanced tone with excellent resonance. Its slim 48mm nut width makes it especially comfortable for beginners and electric players transitioning to classical guitar, while premium details like the laser-etched rosette and 12-hole bridge add both style and functionality.
