H. Jimenez LR1C Voz de Trio Requinto - Acoustic Cutaway | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
Introduction
The H. Jimenez LR1C Voz de Trio Requinto delivers authentic Latin tones with traditional craftsmanship and modern playability. This acoustic cutaway requinto features a solid cedar top paired with mahogany back and sides, creating the warm, responsive voice that defines trio romántico music. With its comfortable neck profile, convenient cutaway design, and proprietary Thunderwing™ bridge, this instrument offers both the traditional sound and enhanced playability that musicians need for authentic Latin performances.
Product Overview
The LR1C Voz de Trio (Voice of Trio) showcases H. Jimenez's dedication to traditional Latin American instruments with thoughtful design enhancements. The solid cedar top provides rich, warm tones with excellent projection and sustain, essential for the distinctive requinto voice in traditional trio ensembles. This is complemented by select mahogany back and sides that add depth and fullness to the tone while providing enhanced durability for regular performance use.
The elegant aesthetic is enhanced by single-ply black binding on the body, which provides both visual appeal and protection for the instrument's edges. The natural finish highlights the beautiful grain patterns of the premium tonewoods while offering a traditional appearance that honors the requinto's heritage.
Playability is a standout feature of the LR1C, with its comfortable neck profile designed specifically for the nimble fingering techniques required in requinto playing. The convenient cutaway design provides easy access to upper frets, essential for the melodic runs and higher-register playing common in trio romántico music. The shorter 510mm (20.08") scale length creates lighter string tension that facilitates the fast, articulate playing style characteristic of traditional requinto music.
What truly distinguishes the LR1C is the proprietary H. Jimenez Thunderwing™ bridge, engineered specifically for optimal performance. This innovative design provides easy saddle-style adjustability, allowing players to fine-tune their action and intonation for personalized playability. Smooth-action chrome tuners with white pearloid buttons ensure stable, precise tuning while adding a touch of classic elegance to the headstock.
