The Michael Gulezian Low-Strung guitar has rosewood back and sides and a Sitka Spruce top. Michael was searching for an articulate and bold-sounding baritone guitar that had a standard guitar scale length (25.4") and could be played in open tunings. Enter the "Low-Strung" guitar model. Using composite materials in the bracing, these "Low-Strung" guitars maintain a standard guitar scale length but have an uncompromised Baritone sound. This guitar can be tuned easily down to an A while maintaining clear tone and perfect feel.
