I received a comment on my Smugmug lutherie gallery from a Lex Eisenhardt, who saw this post, but is not a member here. He said Jose plays up at the hypothetical '12 fret" position and this contributes to this tone. I tried it and yes it really does change the tone and it is sweeter up there. I'm just used to playing back over the rose. I know Ronn Macfarlane sometimes changes his playing position as you can hear him pluck back by the bridge to accent a passage, with the sharper tone you get…

I've known of the technique from playing guitar for many years.

<p>There are two albums by Moreno in <a href="http://www.emusic.com" target="_blank">www.emusic.com</a>. None of these is canción del emperador, but maybe the instruments in those two recordings are the ones you are looking for. You can buy Rob's album there, too.</p>

<p>José-Miguel used to play on intruments by his (former ?) wife Lourdes Uncilla-Moreno, but now his is playing on instruments made by himself.</p>
<p>He is a very kind guy and a fantastic versatile musician.</p>

<p>Thanks to both Akira, and Mel, who replied privately.</p>
<p>6cm is a pretty shallow depth. No doubt that would limit the bass response and give a crisper sound methinks. I will look around for Nigel North's album.</p>

<p>Hi, I don't have the album you mentioned but <em>Canto del Cavallero</em> recorded in 1993. He may use the same vihuela as in <em>Cancion</em> album because the sounds on both albums seem to share similar character you described (I've listened to the MP3 samples of <em>Concion</em> at amazon.com). Unfortunately, however, neither he or the auther of the linar notes gives any info on the instrument he plays.</p>

<p>For what is worth, Nigel North gives fairly detailed info on his vihuela in his <em>Guitar Collection</em> album. It was made by Klaus Jacobson [sic] in 1984. Overall length: 78cm, string length: 55cm, body width: 24.5cm, and body depth: 6cm. The body seems to be fairly shallow. The instrument looks like the one depicted on the cover of the Luys Milan's book:</p>

<p>Hope this would be of any help.</p>
