The Vihuela is a 5-string instrument that
features a vaulted back or belly for added resonance. The Vihuela is
tuned a-d-g-b-e and gives the Mariachi ensemble its unique sound. Its
role is normally for rhythm and chordal accompaniment although
contemporary artists are making more clever use of the Vihuela's
capabilities. The Paracho Elite Vihuela features a decoratively bound
body, geared machine heads, solid Tacote top, and a decorative soundhole
rosette. Nylon gig bag is included.
