Very interesting design. I am very curious as to how it sounds.

Sounds nice. Has that "Renisance" look to it.

Is this the latest rendition of the Gianinni Craviola 12 String?

Not too long ago I had a late 70's model from Alpep. I'd still have it if I didn't keep catching that "TraderJimFlu" and have to rotate the inventory so much.

There was one in a pawn shop here about a year ago, but it was in such bad shape, and they still wanted way too much. The bridge was lifted and the top had sunk so much that the soundhole almost touched the back. If the price had been right I would have bought it and tried to rescue it. These are GREAT guitars!Congratulations Miguel!

Yes, it is a new series they are selling here as the "luthieria" series (handcrafted). These are made one at a time, with solid woods and Fishman pickups. I ordered one today, and it will take 5-15 days to arrive directly from the factory. I´m a bit excited, and will post real pics as soon as it arrives.
