2017 German Vazquez Rubio "7 String" SP/AB

Maestro German Vazquez Rubio has carefully crafted this seven stringed guitar with unique specifications to achieve maximum comfort and quality of sound. It is built with his finest materials including reserve stock German spruce for the soundboard, African Blackwood four-piece back and sides, Spanish cedar neck, Ebony headplate, Abalone shell inlay on bridge, Gilbert Tuning machines and varnished with hand thinned French polish of shellac. These materials were selected to achieve the utmost clarity and balance needed by any extended-range guitarist. Sound of this instrument is bold and powerful, with a rich, velvety texture to each note. It is also extremely responsive and loose, with plenty of volume for any concert setting. It is also fitted with a 20th fret for repertoire requiring a high c natural. Truly powerful yet focused basses and singing trebles make this guitar a sonic gem for the most discernible musician. Overall, a beautiful-sounding and intricately made extended-range concert guitar.
