Another fascinating demonstration from an excellent guitarist. Smaro, what's it like to play a guitar with a scalloped fingerboard? Electric guitarists have had access to guitars with scallops on some of the higher frets for a while now, but these are on the higher strings to facilitate string bending. But on one of Kertsopoulos's guitars I think that _all_ the fretboard is scalloped? I would think there are intonation issues. But on the other hand perhaps the strings are easy to depress?
A very interesting guitar indeed. What is the mechanical arrangement? I see only six nuts, so how do they span more than six strings? Perhaps know somebody hiow it works?

Wow, very little warmth. On the upside it does sound just like a harpsichord.

Very virtuoso but a pity that the instrument is (sounds) so badly out of tune. Also the room acoustics don't help.

@DonAnzalone If you look very carefully I think there are _vertical_ pegs onthe headstock.

There is nothing in this world that compares to J:S: Bach's music.
