Listing Info
from the Ortega Guitars web site

The starting point for our modern company was the crafting of guitars along classical Spanish lines. Today we have taken traditional guitar-making to new levels, developing instruments that are tailored listening to our customers’ requirements. And in doing so we use all our senses – listening to them, fingering them, gauging their shape and colour. The results can be found in every single instrument we make – which you have helped to create! Connecting all these things together allows us to on pulse of time.

Ukuleles have been part of our extensive classic range since 2008 with our RU10 and RU11 models. Both of these instruments quickly became very popular.Over the years the status of ukuleles changed from being a "side"-instrument or known as a cheep toy to be a professional instrument, established; at home nearly on every stage. Since we started to make ukuleles, Ortega focused on making high quality instruments for the needs of every musician. In 2009 we upgraded our ukulele program developing the RUE series made with flamed mahogany and a plug-in pickup. 2011 is the year the LIZARD series will follow as a highlight so far. Built with help of most modern technology we also love to use lasers from time to time. Special designed preamps and pickups made by German icon Shadow completes our high needs. And....of course our weakness for Croco-designed cases continues with the LIZARD series; INCLUDING ! 2012 - make new friends! With our new "FRIENDS" (RFU) series you can make new friends starting already NOVEMBER 2011.

On the web since 1992 and a Mac since 1987 (Mac II) • Serving up Ukulele content since 2003 ( 22 years ago )Lets Kanikapila!!! v12.13.0 (8.2.23) • And, since Sept 2020, happily on Pop!_OS Linux & COSMIC-DE and a System76 Thelio . Half the cost of the iMac and a real treat to use. I use it for ALL development work. Only wish the Affinity Suite of apps by serif where available on Linux (and I do know you can run them in Wine with a few hacks).
