Manuel Rodriguez, Jr. (b. 1962) is a third generation luthier, son
of Manuel Rodriguez, Sr. (born 1926-2008), and grandson of Manuel Rodriguez
Pérez (1887-1958) who began building classical guitars in 1905. Manuel Rodriguez
Jr is now building an exclusive line of guitars for Zavaleta's inspired by those
of the old Madrid School masters: Santos Hernandez, Domingo Esteso, etc. My
instructions to Manuel were to build a light bodied instrument which feels alive
in ones hands and captures characteristic sound of these master luthiers. The
guitars Manuel made for me exceeded my expectations.
