CHARANGOS

A string instrument which developed as a result of Spanish influence. The CHARANGO is a direct descendent from the lutes brought to the Andes in the sixteenth century. The CHARANGO uses ten strings (five doubles) and is usually tuned in open A minor. Tuning and styles of execution differ widely, however, between Peru and Bolivia. This wonderful instrument is a wonder both to play and behold. Handcrafted in the Bolivian Andes, these CHARANGOS will please musicians and instrument collectors alike. Comes with traditional carrying case and chord manual................................$150.00
