Rooted in Mexican and Latin American traditions, requinto guitars are smaller versions of the classical guitar with a shorter scale length and a notably deeper body depth. The Ortega RQ39 Requinto Guitar is not only suitable for trío romántico groups and traditional folk music, but it’s also a great instrument for acoustic performances where amplification is not possible as its much louder than a traditional small-body guitar.

This Ortega Requinto Series Pro model features a solid cedar top with a natural satin finish and satin-finished sapele back and sides. It’s also got a satin-finished okoume neck with a 2-way truss rod, and walnut fretboard, bridge and headstock veneer. Ortega Requinto Pro models feature a solid top and come with a deluxe gig bag.
