Stoll Guitars / Classic Line I Baritone / Guitar
This baritone guitar is a classical guitar. It is perfect for classical guitarists who would like it to sound a bit more bassy, because baritone guitars are the "missing link" between "normal" guitar and bass.
Basically, both classical guitars and steel string guitars can be made with baritone construction.
Classic Line I Baritone
In order to achieve the typical sound of a baritone guitar, we have extended the scale length to 66.5 cm, based on our standard Classic Line I model. Also the body was designed a bit deeper and the bracing was adapted to the requirements. The string set corresponds with BEADGF#B to the typical baritone tuning.
Features
To the Rosewood back and sides a top made of Sitka Spruce was chosen. The beautiful spalted Beech rosette is a special design. The inserted piece of Ebony with light sapwood makes it something very special. The Pear purfling matches beautifully with the rosette.
The headstock is, as always, made of rosewood to go with the body.The silver matted Schertler single tuners work very nicely and provide a cool modern look.
Sound
The voice of this baritone guitar is full and voluminous, because that's what it's meant to be. However, the high frequencies are by no means underpowered by their bassy brothers. The midrange appears warm and full and is quite impressive. Overall, the result is a balanced sound with a frequency spectrum that is shifted downwards according to the specifications, with high assertiveness and selectivity.

Handicraft - Made in Germany
We value clean and high quality handicraft and selected materials. Thereby we pursue the concept of quality "Made in Germany". All of our guitars are made of solid tonewood. Before processing these valuable tonewoods we keep them in our workshop for years to dry slowly, as it is best for their determination.
Natural Materials
Our bindings are made of wood, nut and bridge are made of bone and dots and inlays are of mother of pearl.Small SeriesOur guitars (standard models) are built in small series of maximum 4 pieces. In this way, we save time and can still control the technical quality of our work. and keep the technical quality of our work fully under control. we combine time-saving work with the best possible view of the technical quality of our work.
Quality From the Start
Even with our entry-level models, we set high standards of quality. Good sound, good workmanship and solid tonewoods here are also a must, as in the upper price ranges.
Economical Calculation
Most of our woods we buy directly in the country of origin. We also dispense with expensive glossy brochures. The benefits we grant to you.
Enjoyment of Work
Only those who have pleasure in their work, do it good and conscientious. Therefore, all our employees, including the trainees, have their own field of responsibility, which is regularly reviewed and is growing with the acquired skills. By doing this we constantly give new challenges which makes work interesting and varied.
Economically, Environmentally, Politically Correct
For a handmade guitar from a local luthier you invest 100% of your money in the quality of the instrument, while the price of guitars from overseas is more than 50% of costs for transportation and middlemen. Short transport routes and the production under European environmental standards is environmentally friendly and reduces carbon emissions. By investing in a local quality product you will not only add value by over 100% but help to maintain our quality of life.
