Napini

Napini means "wide", to the Madihadeni indigenous people with whom I worked. It is also the name of the Purus River, the widest on the basin where they live. Being a 7 string guitar, the alias "wide" is quite suitable already, but it also has further meaning as it was in a small town by the Purus river where I became friends with this guitar's owner. The aesthetic details, of a brown palette, refer to the cloudy cream color of the waters of the Purus River.

Perfect for samba and choro, this 7 string guitar provides a lush bass response, further complimented by the low-density cedar soundboard. Finished with a french polished soundboard and with an oil-based varnish everywhere else, the beauty of the Imbuia wood is on full display.
