Enrico Bottelli "Special" No.239

- It has one 15" crack on the bass side, five shorter cracks (3–4"), and a 2" crack on the treble waist. All have been professionally repaired, cleated, and French-polish touched up. The instrument is structurally stable, fully playable, and delivers a spectacular concert sound as confirmed in video demonstrations.

About the Luthier:
Enrico Bottelli, based in Northern Italy, is regarded as one of the finest living classical guitar makers. Since 1989 he has crafted an extremely limited number of instruments each year, all fully handmade with meticulous attention to detail. His guitars are renowned for their refinement, tonal clarity, and projection, and they are played by leading professionals including Paolo Pegoraro, Xavier Jara, and Keith Rodriguez. Bottelli maintains a waiting list of over three years, and his guitars rarely appear on the market.
