What can I say? I know you have heard this many, many times before, but WOW! Just the looks of this guitar alone are simply breathtaking. The dark cedar top with he Australian rosette and dark binding is simply hard to believe. It is the most beautiful guitar I have ever seen in my life. The Bolivian Rosewood on the back amazes everyone who sees it.
About the sound? Sir, I was stunned from the very first chord I rolled! There is balance of gorgeous rich penetrating tone and power in every register. The guitar lacks nothing. I especially am appreciative of the low-profile neck. I do not have really large hands and, therefore, love the feel and shape of this neck. I can get around quickly without fatigue. I also love the laminated maple and ebony through the neck. Strong yet a work of art!
Renato, I cannot thank you enough. I don't think I have ever been this happy. I will play this one forever!
Sincerely,

My guitar arrived late yesterday afternoon. Thank you very much! I pray that one day I'll be worthy of owning such a beautiful instrument!
Best Wishes

The sustain is excellent and the feel of the fretboard is perfect. I want to play her all the time...the tuners are gorgeous.
Playing is so much easier with this instrument. The width of the fingerboard is perfect and feels so comfortable. The fourth string is top notch... outstanding sustain. The best I ever heard or played. Playing Bach BWV 996 will be easy now ! Thanks a lot !

The guitar arrived and it is fantastic. I really do like the sound and looks of the Cocobolo. The action is also great, you and the builder did another great job. Thank you.

This is Hee Chae Woo. I received the cedar top guitar yesterday. As you said, it is a great instrument. I like its projective sound. I feel it open up little by little. I am happy. The action is perfect for me. Your guitar is a truly wonderful guitar instrument. It is going to put its more expensive American-made brothers and sisters to shame. Sincerely, I would like to give my best regards to you and your luthier. It is one of the best sounding classical guitars I've played.

I've played it non-stop since it arrived, and I can't walk past it without picking it up and playing it. The sound is beautiful, the action is great, it looks great, and it's got my name inside!. The difference between this guitar and my Ramirez 1A is that this guitar is easy and fun to play - it has restored my enthusiasm for guitar playing and song writing. Thank you for your prompt attention to my initial queries, you're customer service is superb. Many thanks, again

Just wanted to let you know that she has arrived safely. Thank you for the documentation provided with the guitar, very helpful ! The description of her sound on your website was very accurate and is incredible, especially for a cutaway. I will definitely buy another guitar sometime next year or as soon as my budget permits. Now I have to get to her…irresistible !
Best regards, Jens, Japan
Thank you again for your prompt attention to my purchase of the Lepacho/Spruce Guitar, truly a work of art. Please relay my warmest congratulations to your Master Luthers for such a fine example of their talents.
I would like to mention that as a youth my father taught me to appreciate good tools and the artistry required to create beauty through training, care and pride in producing top quality products from fine woods. The guitar that arrived today brought back memories of those days in my father's shop. The time may never come when I can shake your hand in thanks for your adding to my enjoyment of life and music but you have made a friend.
Many Thanks,

I had to ride home for lunch to take care of some business and to my surprise the Red babe had just arrived. My wife and I opened her up and were stunned by her character and beauty. Thank you so very much we shall cherish her all of our lives. The workmanship is impeccable, a true work of art. I am stunned at the beauty of the cedar top. The grain is so strait and tight. I put some new strings on her and tuned her up. What a glorious sound that emanates from this red beauty. My wife describes it this way : like a heavenly harp, clear and distinct. I feel like I've won the lottery, a true one of a kind instrument. I will do all I can to get a Brazillian rosewood next year. Thank you so much brother Renato, you are true a one of a kind friend.
Big hug, Richard Wilson, Valley AL, USA
It has been a year since my 75th birthday. On that day I received the great gift: my second Custom Bellucci guitar. A great instrument that, along with my first Bellucci, is a true work of art. When I add the amazing guitars you built for me to the great online teaching I receive from your website mangore.com plus your great advice, it has allowed me to feel like an accomplished, happy guitarist
I can play these guitars for hours and your fingers will never feel tired. The sound is powerful and beautiful. I will always be thankful for having met you Renato. My best regards to your family. Please continue to make many guitar players happy with your work. A big hug, Josep. ( josepguitar- jonyguitar ) josepmercaderarques@gmail.com
Querido amigo Renato:
Ahora hace un año, el mismo día en que cumplí 75 años recibí un maravilloso regalo, gran detalle por tu parte, mi segunda custom Bellucci. Gran guitarra que juntamente con mi primera Bellucci la JOSE´PS obra de arte y con tus acertadas clases y consejos me han permitido a pesar de mi edad sentirme un poco guitarrista pero mucho mas feliz.
Estas guitarras las puedo tocar horas y horas sin que mis dedos se cansen y sus sonidos son distintos pero únicos y potentes.
Siempre estaré agradecido por haberte conocido y por tus atenciones. Saluda a tu familia de mi parte. Continúa haciendo felices a muchos guitarristas.
Un fuerte abrazo,
