DESCRIPTION
The tradition continues with the Babilon BVIH-M21 Vihuela, with a compact deep body, which complements the Mariachi rhythm section, with its higher octave tuning. Solid wood back with a deep bowl assist in projecting the instruments sound. Bold punch and articulated patters commonly strummed with all the finger tips produce a full rich and voluminous sound. These distinctive feature have propelled the instrument to being a staple of the Mariachi sound commonly hear in Latin American. Hand Made in Paracho Michoacán, Mexico.
