Maple B&S, Cedar Top “Letizia”

“Letizia”

This amazing beauty was commissioned by my dear friend and colleague Leticia Chaves. The guitar is part of the “Da Vinci” Bellucci Guitars Series and she’s one of a kind. Quilted Maple was used for the Back & Sides and a Master Grade set of Western Redcedar for the top. Indented cutaway with soundport and a Lute-type rosette add the touches to a masterpiece work of luthery. It took over 300 hours of passionate labor to complete Leti’s jewel.

Shure Wireless Mikes are my favorite on-stage microphones. They do not pick the sound from the saddle but the sound as it is produced by the inflating & deflating of the guitar body. The Shure Wireless Mike can be inserted in any orifice or soundport of the guitar and is, practically speaking, invisible.
The Bellucci Hand tooled Leather Case is the Premium Bellucci Case. The Bellucci hand embossed Genuine Leather case is a work of art on its own right. Built by one of a handful of very talented leather embossers in Latin America. It takes countless hours of patient labor to build and emboss a single leather case. Bellucci guitar cases are built following my specifications for both the interior and exterior in order to fit Bellucci guitars like a glove. The Bellucci Guitar Case will also fit other standard full size concert classical guitar brands. Each Bellucci Hand Embossed case is a unique work of art hand stitched and built to last forever. It takes over 110 hoursof very skilled and patient labor to build a single Bellucci Hand Embossed Leather Case. Each one is a true masterpiece. S.D.G.
Bellucci guitars are decorated using marvelous wood marquetry to enhance all her lines and put an accent on specific parts of the construction. The marquetry requires anywhere between 35 & 90 hours of highly skilled labor to be inlayed throughout the guitar. It is made entirely by hand using knives that each luthier typically manufactures himself. It takes the guitar to unsuspected levels of beauty. The marquetry also constitutes an often critical point of release of tension which is caused by the constant expanding and contracting of the woods used in guitar construction. These are due to such factors such as humidity and ambience temperature.
The Bellucci Limited Edition logo and label will be assigned to guitars I build using extremely rare and amazingly figured woods in the construction for both the back and sides and/or the top. These sets are selected among hundreds of sets and their price is significantly higher that the standard figured counterparts. 7 of the world best "wood hunters" all the way from South East Asia, Oceania, Africa and the Americas are constantly on the lookout to provide me with some amazing sets for the Limited Edition series.
The lattice is a concept based on the A frame of grand pianos. The back and sides are kept rigid by means of a sturdy A shaped frame and the top is thinned as much as possible to allow the top to vibrate generously. The thinned area is approximately 1.2 mm thick (Vs. 2-2.5 in the standard thinning techniques). Lattice delivers a lot of volume and wonderfully clear trebles.
The armrest prevents the forearm to interfere with the vibration of the top thus adding a few extra decibels to the instrument. Plus it looks great !
Some Sets for either the Back and Sides, for the Top or both can be quite stunning and rare when it comes to the figure and grain that they display. It is as if nature, knowing the final destiny of its creature, "prepared" the wood in such a way that its grain, hidden to the human eye and to the world, silently develops a breathtaking beauty that comes to life when the dead tree is sawn. Getting the same identical figure is practically speaking impossible but I strive at getting figured wood that resembles and transmits the same vital impression as the one here depicted
The Soundport allows the modern guitar to project sound in all directions as well as providing the player a perfect monitoring of his playing. The traditional Spanish guitar did not produce as much sound as the contemporary instrument does. I recommend the Soundport to all my customers.
Some Custom Builds like this magnificent ACDC Inspired Model (Angus Young), require special sound holes configurations. Feel free to discuss the options with me.
Bellucci Guitars wear some of the best tuners available on the market. Schaller, Gotoh, DJ. All models are Gold plated and are designed to last for a lifetime.
The Bellucci Triple Neck Reinforcement (Maple-Rosewood-Maple) adds beauty and resilience to the neck allowing us to build it slim and when coupled to the Carbon Fiber Truss rod or the Adjustable Truss Rod, it ensures a beautiful and straight neck for several generations no matter what string tension or brand you use.
The Nomex Double top, AKA Hollow Top or Composite top, is a type of construction of the top that allows for title or no bracing thus allowing for a larger movement of the top. The advantage of the hollow top is: A bigger volume and sustain requiring less plucking technique of the right hand. The disadvantage is: A loss in the tone quality and color palette of the sound that one typically associates with the sound of the classical guitar. As a dear friend of mine used to say "If Segovia had played Nomex double tops, we would have missed the Segovia Sound"
The indented cutaway is both very beautiful and extremely useful. It requires the highest level of luthery to be made and when it comes to playability, it allows the player to access the F# on fret 14 with amazing ease thus covering the 14 most used frets in the classical guitar.
