These are bringing $200 to $300. I would never sell it as they are really unusual and very cool and a nice rememberance of grandpa.

Re: Giannini Craviola

I've had my Giannini 6-string for over 30 years and absolutely love it. It's not the best playing guitar, but the tone is great and it's very well balanced. I also have a 12-string, which is a little clunky feeling but plays OK. I replaced the machine heads on both, and they've had some body work over the years, but I love 'em. I'm looking for the nylon-string model to complete the set (one of these days).

I have two of each of the four original Cravioas. Love the nylon model with LaBella 900 Gold (very soft and low tension). Also have several custom made (pre-1970) Giannini classicals which my preferred classicals.

Great for on stage work nice through PA - I have one of each and they always gain attention on stage.

My 12 string is strung in Double Nashville tuning and in "DADGAD" sound like a mandola/ Cittern
