Independent shopping perspective
El Murciélago is a 10-string acoustic-electric bajo quinto built with a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, and a Fishman Rare Earth pickup. It is positioned for amplified performance and studio recording, while the Florentine cutaway makes the upper frets easier to reach for higher-note work. The comfortable-profile mahogany neck includes an adjustable truss rod, and the 21-fret walnut fingerboard completes a playing layout intended for both accompaniment and melodic passages. A padded gig bag is included.
