  We are pleased to offer this 2010 John Monteleone Speciale, Serial #252, handcrafted in Islip, New York. Finished in natural lacquer, this remarkable archtop features a finely grained spruce top, paired with beautifully figured maple back and sides. The neck is maple, with an ebony fingerboard. It includes the original Cedar Creek hardshell case.
  The Speciale is Monteleone's 17" archtop design, distinguished by its canted oval soundhole and asymmetrical X-bracing. This innovative construction blends the warmth and projection of a traditional archtop with the openness and complexity more commonly associated with a flat-top guitar, resulting in an exceptionally responsive and versatile instrument.
