Ships set-up and ready to play from Grassroots Music Store, your Authorized Ortega Dealer.

The Ortega Guitars R16S Classical Guitar is a handcrafted nylon-string guitar designed for comfort, clarity, and smooth playability. Built in Portugal as part of Ortega’s Traditional Series, it combines a solid Engelmann spruce top with aged eucalyptus back and sides for a clear, balanced tone with excellent projection and note definition. Its slim 48mm nut width makes it especially comfortable for beginners and electric players transitioning to classical guitar, while premium details such as the laser-etched rosette and Ortega 12-hole bridge add both style and functionality.
