Ortega - guitar making with passion and tradition

The Ortega brand stands for innovative guitars worldwide with a clear focus on quality, playability and sound. Since its foundation, Ortega has been developing classical and modern instruments to suit musicians of all levels of experience. Ortega has earned an excellent reputation, particularly in the area of concert guitars for children and young people, with well thought-out size variants, ergonomic designs and high-quality materials.

The Ortega R122-1/4-L is part of this philosophy and offers young left-handers an excellent entry-level instrument that not only impresses with its sound quality, but also with its durability and aesthetics. It is produced to high quality standards and with a passion for detail - characteristics that you can feel from the very first time you play it.

Technical details of the Ortega R122-1/4-L classical guitar

The Ortega R122-1/4-L is a concert guitar in 1/4 format, which makes it the ideal choice for children aged around 5 to 7 years or for players with a height of around 110 to 130 cm. The compact scale length of 438 mm makes it easier to grip and promotes playing technique in the long term. This model is a real stroke of luck for left-handers in particular, as it is specially designed to meet their ergonomic requirements.

A highlight of this guitar is the solid cedar top, which gives the sound a warm, full characteristic - ideal for classical pieces or plucked playing. Cedar is known for its quick response and richness of sound, even with a light touch, which makes it particularly attractive for younger players. The back and sides are made of mahogany, a tonewood prized for its balanced timbre and robustness.

The neck is also made of mahogany and has a matt finish, which provides a pleasant playing feel. The fingerboard and bridge are made of Sonokelin - a durable, stable-sounding wood with good playability and an attractive appearance. With 18 frets, the guitar offers sufficient musical scope for first melodies, chords and classical etudes.

The nut width is 43.5 mm - a standard size that adapts well to small hands without making playing difficult. Particularly noteworthy is the Ortega 12-hole bridge, which not only ensures improved string action, but also optimizes the transmission of vibrations to the top - a detail that is directly noticeable in the sound.

Why the Ortega R122-1/4-L is an excellent choice

The Ortega R122-1/4-L is an ideal instrument for parents who want to give their child a high-quality, powerful-sounding introduction to the world of classical guitar. It combines child-friendly dimensions with professional details that are usually only found on larger or more expensive models. The use of cedar for the top makes it sound very different from other beginner models with spruce tops - it sounds softer, fuller and more musical.

Thanks to the left-handed design, young musicians can practise with the correct posture and technique from the very beginning - without having to get used to holding the instrument the "wrong way round". This ergonomic adaptation supports a healthy playing feel and avoids incorrect posture, which could be a hindrance to long-term playing.

Another advantage: a matching gig bag is included in the scope of delivery, which reliably protects the guitar from dust, scratches and light knocks. This makes it ideal for transporting to music school, the classroom or to friends - light, compact and securely packed.

Learning with joy - playing with style

Making music should be fun - and that's exactly what the Ortega R122-1/4-L makes possible. With its pleasant playability, warm sound and high-quality material, this instrument motivates you from the very first chord. Especially with children, the first impression is decisive - and with this guitar, this impression will definitely be positive.

The silky matt surface not only looks elegant, but also supports a natural playing feel. The sturdy construction, ergonomic design and sophisticated sound character make this guitar a long-lasting companion for the first musical years. It is robust enough for everyday use and sensitive enough to encourage musical expression.
