Elegance embodied in a musical instrument.
Over the past ten years, the hummingbird has become one of the traditional decorative motifs of Bolivian charangos, symbolizing lightness, agility, and beauty. The “Colibrí” by Pedro Quispe Torrez is a concert charango that seamlessly blends refined aesthetics with outstanding sound quality.
This preamplified instrument, equipped with a Fishman system, ensures natural and well-balanced amplification, making it an excellent choice for stage performances. The media tapa is adorned with a hand-inlaid Haliotis mother-of-pearl design, depicting a hummingbird approaching a flower around the soundhole. An additional decorative inlay embellishes the headstock, adding a distinctive touch of elegance.
Yet, the “Colibrí” is more than just a visual masterpiece. Its construction, crafted with the expertise of Pedro Quispe Torrez, delivers a rich and well-balanced sound, excellent projection, and harmonic depth. The dynamic response is fluid and precise, allowing for expressive and nuanced performances. This charango is ideal for those who not only seek exceptional sound but also appreciate an instrument with deep artistic and symbolic meaning.
