dear ones, unfortunately I have made my decision, and I have to sell my 10 strings stick..this is Virginia Splendore's #590; she made her first cd with this fantastic instrument..my left hand is no longer able to have a good stretch and then I have never been that able so I prefer to give it to someone who is able to play it in a good way, knowing that a fantastic person, Virginia, played with it. let me know..ciao..walter (italy)
