Giusanni labeled this guitar “Algehab”, where I have no idea what this means  LOL She’s very bold in the old Italian character, voices clear, plays fluid, with plenty of power.  The elevated fingerboard is a bonus.  I fell in love with the guitar. __________ Media Listening with high quality headphones or audio equipment is highly recommended MP3 Audio – 201027-2008 Gioachino Giusanni Algehab Cedar Madagascar – a straightforward and brilliant guitar by the Italian Master.  Quite balanced, easy on the hands, effortless to make music. https://www.savageclassical.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/201027-2008-Gioachino-Giusanni-Algehab-Cedar-Madagascar.mp3 My Solo Book of sheet music is available here if you’re interested. https://savageclassical.com/product/richard-f-sayage-solo-guitar-works-volume-1/ __________ Shipping: Premium Single Arch Top or Double Arch HSC is included in your purchase price.
