This is a special model of Classico A with shell decoration.
The addition of shell decoration to the fingerboard provides an indication of the number of frets and improves operability.
The frets are made of stainless steel, which is hard and less prone to wear, just like the Orlandi model.
▼About painting
This model is available in the following paint finishes:
[Lacquer coating]
This is a type of paint that is often used on mandolins, and Caracé has also traditionally used it. It offers better protection than shellac paint, and as it dries over time, the sound matures.
[Shellac paint]
It is possible to apply a thin hand-painted finish, which allows the wood to vibrate without interfering with the sound, and the instrument will resonate well even when new. However, the paint is very delicate, so care must be taken to maintain it.
☆Differences from Clasico A
[wood]
In particular, the quality of the top and back plates, which have a significant impact on the sound, has been upgraded, resulting in a richer sound.
[fret]
The material and shape of our bar-shaped frets are different from normal frets. Stainless steel frets are very hard and difficult to process, but they wear out less and you can use the same frets for a long time.
[Shell decoration]
Shell decorations have been added to the pickguard and fingerboard to improve luxury and operability.
