Product Overview
Paracho Elite Guitars are made in the legendary mountain village of Paracho, high in the Sierra Madre Mountains of Mexico. Paracho artisans have been perfecting their craft for over 200 years. Many of the luthiers that work at the Paracho Elite shop are fourth and fifth generation musical instrument makers.
These hand crafted, quality guitars are made from some of the finest woods. Each guitar has it's own unique styling and beautiful inlay craftsmanship. Most importantly, they produce remarkable sound and are played by recording and performing professionals.
The Cuban Tres is a 6 string guitar-like rhythm instrument with 3 courses of 2 strings. It plays a key role in the Cuban "Son" musical style and in many Afro-Cuban inspired bands. It is sometimes referred to as "Cuban Tres Guitar." From the low pitch to the highest, the principal tuning is in C Major: G-C-E. Today many tresoros are playing a step up: A-D-F# or D Major.
The Paracho Elite Havana Cuban Tres features an elegant soft shoulder cutaway and a solid cedar top. The Havana has a beautifully detailed rosette and a natural gloss finish.
