Research & Innovation

We create for tomorrow

Decades of Experience and Innovation

Over many decades, we have developed processes with our manufacturers that continue to significantly shape the success of our own brands. We focus on three key success factors:

01 Personal Contact

Direct communication and close collaboration with our partners.

02 Efficient and Resource-Conserving Workflows

Development of processes that are both efficient and environmentally friendly.

03 Transfer of Guitar-Making Knowledge

Training of employees and implementation of this knowledge into our operational processes.

Resources/Materials/Components

For more than 10 years, we have been researching with various institutions on how we want to build acoustic and classical guitars in the future. A key component of this research is the belief that we can use resources for guitar building much more efficiently and environmentally friendly.

Collaborations/Networks and Synergies

We believe in the power of synergies and partnerships. The success of Reinhardt GmbH is closely linked to this. Over decades, we have built close collaborations with our partners. We believe that true and sustainable success comes, among other things, through critical exchange. We maintain close exchanges with our competitors and draw a lot of energy from collaborations with artists worldwide.

Best practices

La Mancha Guitars

The cornerstone of our La Mancha guitars is the Rubi CM, which has been part of our product portfolio for nearly 20 years. For many, the Rubi CM is "the" La Mancha guitar. The heart of this classical guitar is the Spanish heel. In 2001, we were the first to bring a classical guitar (Made in China) to the market in this price segment.
