Hi, thanks for this informative post. I don't know much about constructing guitar either and it's been tough to find some information on these older Giannini models. I have also heard that the older models are of better quality.

Mine still had some old nylon strings on it, and even with those tunes significantly lower than standard pitch, the sound is still nice.

I guess they used rosewood, but maybe the top is spruce as it is much lighter in color.

I'd be interested to see what they say. If you get a reply from them, please keep me posted!!
