 April 14, 2009 | Eight is (not) enough: JP Charles BAC-10 Ten-string
We've enjoyed the 5-string electric, the mandolin and mandola, so it only seemed logical to commission the talents of Jean Paul Charles, Brazilian Luthier and repair technician and include the individual benefits of all those instruments into a single one. Having a great personal experience with his BSA-4 four-string beauty, we knew the builder had hands-on access to some of the world's best woods and the craft to pull tone out of them. Jean Paul is also a stellar jazz musician himself; it only seemed natural to call on his talents.
Ten it will be...
Preliminary pictures of the work in progress are below, with an ETA of sometime this summer. Our appetite is primed; very much looking forward to heaping on the extra "course."
