Greg's Requinto is what you can call an historical instrument because it is Bellucci Guitars' first Concert Requinto ever. Greg is a top musician and owns many beautiful instruments and, without a doubt, some of the best guitars in the world. It was a great honor to be commissioned this amazing Requinto for him, an opportunity I had been waiting for quite some time. The detailing on this Requinto is unmatched. Perfectly matched handmade marquetry that converges on the exclusive rosette and the Doubletop that can be seen from all sides of the instrumnet. The Doubletop augments the lung of the instru,emt while allowing for a much wider palette of colors and shades of tone-colors.

Paraguay is famous for producing some very talented Requinto players. There is quite along tradition in both Requinto playing and construction. This is the world first AFRICAN Blackwood B&S Doubletop Italian Spruce top and it sounds fantastic. Pernambuco's ChorinhoSom de Carrilhoes shines and it is both vibrant and engaging. It feels very natural and, although quite smaller than a conventional guitar, you adapt to it in no time. A very instinctive instrument to play indeed. The marquetry, teh Florentine Cutaway and the Diamond markers along with the Schaller tuners make a true masterpiece of this one in a million Requintos. S.D.G.
