Spanish Baroque Guitar

Daniel Larson is pleased to offer a five course baroque guitar to the musician who needs a well-made, reliable instrument with an excellent tone - at an affordable price. This style of instrument has been chosen because it is comfortable and easy to play, with a very full tone. It is made to an original design after a study of the iconography of Spain and Italy of the 17^th century.

This instrument is an exceptional value for beginners and experienced players. The flat back lowers the cost of production while maintaining a full, rich tone that is suitable for solo or continuo playing.   It is made to be tuned A d g b e' like the modern guitar.  Ten pegs are put into the head so the instrument can be strung with  single or double courses.
