Default Baritone tune

Hi,

This is a little (original) piece I made on my Baritone guitar. Gives an idea of a baritone's tone used in a single acoustic piece.

I posted it here because the guitar was made by one of our member here (fetellier), Mr. Fred Tellier.




Thank you for listening,

J-F C

Wow. I really liked that a lot.

The deep, intertwining melodies held me entranced. I'm going to listen to it again. Baritone is amazing sounding too.

Thanks J-F C

have had my first baritone guitar for six months now and am finding it a wonderful alternative to a standard guitar. Wish I could play it as well as you play yours!

Thumbs up Nice baritone tune !

Thanks for sharing Jean-François !
I too liked it a lot, nice tune !
I have a Taylor baritone 8 and I am always looking
for songs that reflect the nature of a baritone guitar.
Did you use standard tuning ?
cheers

Thank you guys for your kind words.


@Broadcaster. The guitar was tuned ADGDGA. The deep tone and register of the baritone is a nice source of inspiration.

Thank you again,

J-F C

Sounds sweet, JFC - the nimble melody on such a deep voice is captivating.

Well conceived and played OP! I really enjoyed that.

Elsewhere I have read discussions on what is meant by a guitar with "piano like" sound. I would submit this example, with very best intentions.

Thanks for posting.

Thank you all for your much too kind words.

Fred makes fabulous instruments. And, isn't it the best of feelings when you touch the strings, and the sound immediately puts a smile on your face ?


Thanks again,

J-F C
