...this is the first one of these terz in "A" style guitars and the owner has choosen the name "quinto".
Terz, is third in austrian, quinte is fifth, or five, so I think "quinto" is a good choice. What do you think?
Anyway, here's a couple pictures, (I know, I 'm bad at photography).

Thanks Hesh,
It really does sound nice, I'm having some pc problems or I'd post a sound clip. I'll try later.
A little more bass than I expected, the sustain is sweet,
very clear and sharp. I couldn't be happier with the result.
I like it [:Y:]
