The Manuel Rodríguez Model D is a well-crafted Spanish classical guitar that offers a warm, rounded voice and dependable playability, making it an excellent choice for developing players who need a guitar that is not only easy to play, but will help them to improve their tone and musicianship.
Its solid Canadian cedar top delivers immediate warmth, while the Indian rosewood back and sides provide stability and a focused, balanced projection. Traditional fan bracing supports a clear, even tonal response across the register. This guitar was made in Manuel Rodriguez’s golden era, when all of their guitars were made by hand in Spain.
Tasteful appointments include an ebony fingerboard, rosewood bridge and gold-plated tuners, and a tasteful and traditional rosette. Handmade in Spain, the Model D combines traditional design with practical durability—an instrument designed to support years of musical growth and enjoyment.
As a secondhand guitar, there are a few marks and signs of use (pictured), but no structural concerns. Comes fully set up and ready to continue making music with another enthusiastic classical guitarist. Hard case included.

“I taught Ed Peczek (Director of Classical Guitar Academy) whilst he was a student at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. He is a fine musician and guitarist with a keen musical insight. Ed is a young man of real integrity who will offer unbiased advice on purchasing a quality instrument. I can think of no one better equipped to direct a centre such as Classical Guitar Academy.”

“Just received an Amalio Burguet 2M by mail. Arrived, beautifully packed, in superb condition. After tuning had my first acquaintance with it. Lovely tone which I am sure will improve with playing time. Turned the instrument over in my hands for close inspection. First-rate construction under superb high-gloss finish. Thanks for swift supply & responses via email.”

“Been playing guitar since I was 15 (am now 59), bought my first classical guitar in 1985 and recently decided I needed a better one. After some discussion with Ed at the Classical Guitar Academy about all things guitaristic (Ed is very knowledgeable and always enthusiastic) I tried a few of the guitars Ed had in stock. I knew what I was looking for and Ed understood what I was looking for and I have ended up with a superb Antonio Sanchez guitar. I had also tried a few guitars in a few of the mainstream shops but did not get anything like the help and advice I got from Ed – he understands what it’s all about!”
