Jeroen commissioned his second Bellucci Concert Guitar from France earlier in 2021. This is a trulyStunning instrument. It is perhaps the best adjective to describe this Madagascar Rosewood Masterpiece we built throughout October & November 2021. I embarked at gathering a set of Madagascar Rosewood for the back and sides with some fabulous striping and an equally beautiful set of Spanish Cedar for the main top and Spruce for the second top (Doubletop). The striping and color tones of every panel of wood is perfect. Nature shows off her artistry and you can spend long stretches of time admiring her countless details. Your eyes encounter drama every time they run across the spectacular grain. Once I matched the marquetry and every part of the construction so as to have an eye candy worthy of admiration, I started building this amazing Queen. As the work progressed the anticipation grew to the point that the past few weeks I could barely wait for one more day until this morning when she finally came out of the lacquering booth... She is a true masterpiece! Everything about her is perfect. Her lines, the marquetry, the ease of playability thanks in part to teh Anatomical, sloped armrest and the beautiful, open sound. She has it all! The trebles are clear and penetrating and perfectly. The Spanish Cedar top has a tremendous punch and a truly beautiful sound. As I play on the fingerboard I feel as though she accompanies every move of your hands and fingers. She's very easy to play thanks to the slim neck and the indented cutaway. I feel blessed for being able to work with such a marvelous material as wood. I give thanks to God for helping me to create beauty to this world. This instrument is a testament to everything I believe in. Asuncion, December 9th, 2021, S.D.G.
I find wood buttons to be extremely beautiful. They add sobriety and elegance to the headstock
These beautiful tuners are made in bronze and are treated so as to display a vintage look to the tuning machines.
The Anatomical Armrest As guitar players age, the distance to the tendons is shorter and the pressure of the angled upper bout can be quite a handicap.
The Ultralight Travel Case Ideal for Shipping is a very sturdy and extremely light case.
Waverly Tuners are in my opinion the most beautiful tuners available for classical guitar.
Bellucci Classical Guitars are the only Custom Guitars on the planet that carry Fiber Optic position Markers.
The Double Neck reinforcement consists in a converging set of Ebony reinforcements that run parallel to the length of the neck.
The Carbon Fiber prevents neck twisting and/or bending due to hard tension strings.
The Lute type sound hole forces the air inside the guitar to excite the surrounding woods longer than the conventional sound hole, thus generating a fuller sound.
Bellucci guitars are decorated using marvelous handmade marquetry.
The Double top is an extremely powerful system to augment sustain and eliminate wolf notes.
The indented cutaway allows the player to access the F# on fret 14 with amazing ease.
