avimuno -> What is that thing on the higher boot of the guitar?! (May 28 2009 10:14:52)

Hi All,
I was reading the interviw with Cano on flamenco-world.com and noticed that he had a small sort of box attached to th higher boot of his guitar. I've seen this attached to a couple of guitars but never figured out what it was and why it was attached there.
Thanks.

Is it a tuner?

I would think that it's either a tuner or some sort of preamp if the guitar has an integrated mic... would be cool to find out! lol

It's a duende-scented air freshener.

[:D][:D][:D] nice idea kovachian
this made me think 'bout how duende smells?
maybe a mixture of incense, black roses, wet earth, salty ocean, cold stone, smoked wood, ginger, cardamon with a touch of maryjane?




TANúñez -> RE: What is that thing on the higher boot of the guitar?! (May 29 2009 7:33:25)

Duende smells like cigarette smoke and wine.

Avi, that is a vibration/mic tuner made by Sabine.. I use these a lot for gigs and have about 6 of them with different wood finishes (plastic of course) very good company as well highly recommended..one of mine broke and they sent me a new one for free..very good and much better than the intellitouch tuners that you put on the headstock. I've seen Jeronimo use those as well and I think a few pros here on the foro use them.

They recently got the new version. It has the same rounding as the neck base, and comes with interchangeble duende scences
