The depth of a baritone, the warmth of a classical; Versoul's Buxom 6 Classical Baritone acoustic guitar is a full-bodied blend of both.
It may not look like a classical guitar, but its top is braced to optimally vibrate with custom gauge classical strings tuned C to C, a major third below standard tuning. The extra scale length making this possible delivers a classical guitar sound with cello-like power and presence. The balance from string to string and across the sonic spectrum is superb. Sound is supreme here, but Versoul never overlooks an instrument's appointments; custom Gotoh tuners with locking screws, gold leaf inlays and rosette, and Versoul's uniquely elegant headstock.
