stunning 17" custom-built instrument is "as new,"
unmarked, unplayed, and quite unbelievable!

He recently sent me this email:
"I
can tell you that this is one of the best ones I have built so
far. Everything just went right on this one both aesthetically
and tonally..."

Built from European
Cello Woods - an upgraded option. The European Wood for a Buscarino guitar usually comes from
Germany. It is $1,200.00 extra and there are a few different
reasons why The European Wood costs more:
First, it is aged
a lot longer than the American Woods, and the more
the wood is aged the better it is for instrument wood tonally
and structurally (and of course the more it's aged the more
it costs). The second reason is it has less of the grain that
runs opposite the Flame which gives it a much cleaner look than
the American Woods; lastly it is a much whiter wood and gives
a very pristine quality to the overall appearance of the instrument. |
