SPECIALTY MODELS
We all sometimes crave a new sound to
spark fresh inspiration, and each of our
Specialty models delivers just that. Two
GS Baritone models, an 8-String and
a 6-String, are designed with a 27-inch
scale length and tuned from B to B for
a deep, rich sound with normal string
tension. Both record incredibly well and
blend wonderfully with other instruments.
The Baritone 8-String’s two octave
strings expand the guitar’s upper range
without adding too much 12-string jangle, and its low-end seems ready-made
for walking bass lines. Our 12-Fret is a
rosewood/spruce Grand Concert that
truly speaks for itself. The reorientation of
the neck and bridge with the body help
evoke the sweetness of a vintage guitar,
and blend a rich depth of tone with sparkling clarity and articulation.
