The transversal flute, the bamboo Xaphoon and the (red) bamboo flute


The Recorders (above) and the kalimba, assorted percussion and ocarinas (bellow)

There is also many other percussions instruments and an old mouth keyboard.
We didn't include pictures of the keyboards here, since there is nothing special with synthesizers.

Custom Electric/Synth Guitar Ovation Acoustic/Synth guitar 1621 Custom Fretless Guitar
This guitar was made by a young luthier, Gustavo Brancatti and had the "ok" from a guitarrist known as Pat Metheny. A small and heavy gtr. My main axe for years.
I love the feel of the Ovations guitars. Look the GK2 pickup attached.		 My first electric was in a corner for years. My friend Filipe Cavalieri changes all electronics. Many years before, another friend, Ricardo Calafate, did the new fretless scale.
12 Strings Acoustic guitar APX-4-12A Aplause Mandolim Portuguese acoustic guitar
I always loved the sound of the 12 strings guitars. Over the years I owned many diferent ones. Now this is the one I'm using. An electric mandolim by Aplause. Is not easy to play this beast. The arm is too thin and small. I like the electronics and the electric sound. A typical "Guitarra Portuguesa" made in Brasil. This one doesn't have the ornaments of the original guitars, but is well done. Twelve strings, a special sound, but forget what you know about tunnig with this one.
Del-Vechio Fretless bass Yamaha acoustic guitar APX-6CN Washburn acoustic bass AB20
This bass is not mine. My brother Beto Frega, leaved with me. It's a brazillian made fretless bass, with Fender electronics by Filipe Cavalieri. This is my second acoustic/electric guitar. The first one was a Washburn. This guitar doesn't has a great unplugged sound, but is better than the Washburn when plugged. Also it has a thin arm, more like a electric guitar. I'm not a bassist, but I need to have this instruments near me. Pedro Campos from ProMusic-Rio, show me this one and told me to give it a try. This bass will be here for a long time.
