#23 Jumbo Cutaway Baritone

This baritone guitar is designed to be tuned down from standard pitch -  B to B or A to A - with a 28 1/2 " scale length.   Great depth and clarity.  Works well in alternate tunings.  Very nice when played along with a standard tuned guitar to open up a wide tonal range.
