Greta Retro Live Baritone

Exactly What I Was Looking For

Although I have many guitars ranginging in price from $300 to $12,000 I did not have a baritone acoustic, which I wanted to augment an acoustic gig I do with a popular local singer/songwriter. I really did not want to spend a lot as this guitar as I thought it may not see much use - at least that's what I thought. I received the guitar and immediately unboxed thinking it would require a little setup. I was wrong. The setup was absolutely perfect. The guitarwas ready to play. First, I did not expect it to sound as good as it does acoustically. Its pretty surprising and inspiring. I immediately figured several songs that would work well with this guitar. I did not expect the pickup to be great but wanted to try it first before installing my fav which is the Baggs HiFi. To my surprise I demo'd it plugged in at a gig, which I never do, but thought I would take a shot. I was completely surprised by quality of the pickup. It worked extremely well. I have to say this guitar is awesome. I even love the look which reminds me of my first Silvertone from waaaay back. This was a somewhat unexpected great purchase. I thought the guitar would be fine for my needs, but it is much more than that. I am very pleased.

Great feel and sound! Haven’t put it down!

Pretty solid!!! A lot of fun! And great sound! I’ve been wanting a baritone acoustic a while and this thing does a great job I have barely put it down since it came in! It’s my new main guitar!

Interesting entry level baritone

I bought this after selling an eight string electric. Although I’m familiar with lower registers singing over them is quite strange. I started with some covers playing them in the B to B tuning. It’s really cool sounding. That being said this instrument will take some getting used to. It’s quite difficult to fret and even my callouses from thirty five years of playing hurt after playing it an hour. It’s hard to compare since I don’t have any other baritones here. It will make playing a standard acoustic or electric feel easier.
