ALVARADO Abalone Trimmed Bajo Sexto by Paracho Elite   Paracho Elite's Alvarado is a handsomely trimmed bajo sexto, with elaborate hand inlaid abalone detailing. The beautiful abalone inlay work consists of small squares carefully butted together, color matched, and polished. The rosette, binding, and generous side treatments make this a truly unique instrument. The Alvarado is also hand-built with premium tone woods, for rich and robust sound, that even gets better with age and frequent playing. It's more than a bajo sexto, it's a work of art.
