Forum der Deutschen Lautengesellschaft

Based on the famous Quito "vihuela". Back, sides and pegs are made out of a piece of "jacaranda" (Brazilian rosewood) from a centuries old cabinet. The instrument has a very clear, loud and yet refined sound ideal for the spanish and italian repertoire as well as for continuo accompaniment. The single parchment rosette and the exotic bridge "moustachios" are reconstructions of the original Quito instrument. Ebony fingerboard. String length: 68.5 cm. The reason for selling it is that I never play it anymore since I am progressively centering on renaissance lute and vihuela music from the XVI century. The condition of the instrument is as good as new. No scratches or blemishes. The instrument is officially valued by the maker at €4650 (including VAT. and case).
PRICE : 3750 Euros
