Loef baritone "Barita"
"Hi Erik,
Would you let me know the sting gauges you use on your baritone. I noticed an older post you made (Pat Metheny) and you mentioned tuning up the 3rd and 4th strings an octave higher. Thanks"

Erik Gran commented on John Michael Meehan's group Baritone Guitar"Read about Pat Metheny and the way he tunes his baritone, with the 3rd and 4th string raised and octave, and a fifth below standard, ie. ADGCEA. Tried it out, and it really opens up the sound in closed "jazz" chord voicings. Well worth a…"

Just wanted to welcome you to the Fingerstyle Jazz group. We're developing some nice discussions and interaction in the group and looking forward to your input. Also looking forward to any music you post. The group has members from to U.S. to the U.K. ... and now Norway! Now that's a lot of varied influences. Thanks for joining

Edward Sparks said… - Hi, I had a Yamaha 12 string years ago that I wish I had never sold! I sold it to rasie money to by an Ovation acoustic bass. Anyway, it was a model FG-260 12 string. The only thing I didn't like aobut it was the slotted head, which was hard to re-string! I have a picture of it on my website. I wrote about how I got it on the 12 string discussion, so I won't repeat that here. Anyway, here is the address to my website and to the photo/description page for my Yamaha 12 string guitar. If you get a chance to visit, please feel free to sign the Guestbook!
Thanks, Edward
