A thinline classical guitar for comfy, feedback-safe gigs.
The Ortega Traditional Series RCE180GT Thinline Acoustic-Electric Classical Guitar delivers authentic Spanish craftsmanship in a sleek, stage-friendly design. Handmade in Spain, this thinline nylon-string model pairs a solid North American cedar top with bubinga back and sides for a warm, articulate voice with excellent projection. Its reduced body depth enhances comfort and feedback resistance, making it an ideal choice for performing musicians who want classic tone with modern playability.
Solid Cedar Top With Bubinga Depth
The RCE180GT features a solid North American cedar top, prized for its warm, responsive tone and quick attack, making it ideal for expressive fingerstyle playing. Bubinga back and sides add depth, clarity and a focused low end, creating a well-balanced tonal profile suited for classical, flamenco and contemporary styles. The gloss finish enhances both the visual appeal and resonance of the instrument, allowing the tonewoods to fully project their character.
Thinline Comfort With Stage-Ready Electronics
With a reduced body depth of just 2.95", the thinline design offers increased playing comfort and improved control in live settings, especially at higher volumes. The built-in Ortega Magus Pro electronics system provides natural-sounding amplification along with onboard tone shaping and a convenient tuner, making it easy to dial in your sound on stage or in the studio. Whether plugged in or played acoustically, the RCE180GT delivers consistent, reliable performance.

The Ortega 12-hole bridge improves string stability and simplifies restringing, while the handcrafted Spanish build ensures attention to detail and tonal integrity.
