Di Giorgio - Autor 3 - - Classical guitar - Brazil - 1972

Bossa nova guitar in excellent condition. A true collector’s gem, free of defects or significant scratches, and entirely built in the historic Sao Paulo workshop in Brazil.

First-rate woods:
Rosewood for the back and sides, German spruce for the soundboard, cedrela for the neck and headstock, ebony for the fretboard. Horwath original tuners perfectly preserved.
The guitar features the "Testa Negra" headstock, exactly as in early ’70s production and the same model played by Joao Gilberto.

The sound confirms expectations, revealing a sweet, delicate, and intensely expressive tone.

The measurements are the classics: 642 - 52, with standard action of 3.5 at XII.

The guitar presents itself in truly excellent condition, treated with extreme care and delivering a very high-quality sound across all registers.
This instrument, therefore, is aimed at collectors and guitarists who love bossa nova, but it does not disdain classical or other genres. The fretboard and neck are very comfortable.
On the inner label the signature, date and model — written in pen — are faded but legible when seen against the light (ballpoint pen imprint).
A non-original hard case is provided (the one in the photo is for illustrative purposes only) and the guitar will be shipped in a professionally padded insured box.
