This 10-String beauty creates the correct sound for Mexican folk styles.
The Cordoba Jalisco Bajo Quinto is carefully crafted from select spruce for superb resonance and brilliant sustain. The back and sides are constructed using exotic solid Palo Escrito. The hand inlaid abalone and wood rosette, the detailing of the intricate rope binding and contrasted 3-ply purfling all make this a truly beautiful instrument. The Florentine cutaway provides full fretboard access. The bajo quinto is a double coursed instrument tuned FF-CC-GG-DD-AA (high to low strings. Same note strings are tuned one octave apart, like a 12-stringed guitar.)
