De Faoite Stringed Instruments
Treebeard is a baritone guitar with 735mm (approximately 29") scale and a rich deep tone. It has a cello shape and a 14 fret join to the body rather than 15 or 16. With its long scale, this guitar will tune down to A-A, but its best range is B-B and the various open tunings from this base. It is a lot more easy to play than you think and is perfect for fingerstyle using open tunings. It compliments well standard scale guitars in open tunings as from the B-B base, C shaped tunings are G tunings, G shaped are D tunings, F shaped are C tunings and D shaped are A tunings. They recommend heavies (D'Addario EJ18) for B-B tuning and open tunings around this base; mediums (D'Addario EJ17) for C-C tuning and open tunings around this base; and lights (D'Addarion EJ16) for D-D tuning and open tunings around this base. All of these options give total string tension close to that of light strings on a "normal" scale guitar. An alternative string choice for B-B tuning is to use a set of extra -lights (D'Addario EJ15), discard the first (0.010" string) and use a 0.070" string for the 6th string.The "Treebeard" Baritone Guitar
