Maestro Bellucci |
| 10-STRINGS Brazilian rosewood B&S, "Yepes Model" | ![]() |
| The
10 strings concert guitar had been around my mind for a long time. Maestro
Narciso Yepes was the first GRAND maestro I ever had. He gave me lessons
in in Las Rosas home in the early 80s. There, I played a few chords on
his 10 strings guitar...the same one he made his 1976 Deutsche Gramophone
recordings on... When I played her I was in Heaven and the feelings when
I recorded Romance for the demo, took me to that instant immediately !
The next time I played a 10 strings was at Ramirez studio/museum where
he (Ramirez III) let me play one a 10-strings babe. I played Romance on
the clip, The piece that made Yepes world famous....I used the Yepes tuning
C Bb Ab Gb tuning although I find the D C B A tuning more intuitive.
She has several features to make
her proud: 1-She's the first 10 strings with a Port Orford Cedar top built
Using 1943 Hauser Engineering. 2-She´s also the first 10 strings
640mm on the planet and she is definitely the most affordable 10-strings
concert you'll EVER find...
Regarding 650mm or 640 mm guitar construction, keep the following rule at hand: If the distance between the tip of your thumb and the tip of your little finger is equal or less than 9 in. when fully stretched, use 640 mm. Adapting from one scale to the other takes no time at all. Radiused or flat fingerboard?

The leather
wrapping around the strings is to avoid the elongation knots to
damage the finish.
I did not
have the extra 4 strings cut at the correct measure so I had to elongate
the ones I had available.
You can remove
the leather protection as soon as you change strings.
