Product Overview
The Paracho Elite Odessa 10-string Bajo Quinto guitar has a brilliant ebony and ivory striped binding, Native American bead work rosette, rear facing pearl tuning pegs, and a hand carved "whale tail" bridge. The Odessa features a thin 3-1/8" body design that offers full bodied tone thanks to the solid cedar top, cedar back and cedar sides. Other features found on the Odessa include a rosewood fingerboard and bridge, mahogany colored sides, and a natural, satin matte finish.
The Bajo Quinto 10-string guitar is a doubled string five course version of the bajo sexto and appeared in response to players removing the final E course, which they feel produces a much brighter tone. The 10-string Bajo Quinto is tuned from highest to lowest AA/Dd/GG/cc/ff. The traditional Mexican tuning is AA/Dd/GG/bb/ff.
