***
As with all Graf instruments, this one inspires. I was surprised by how readily I got used to the longer bass length and the thicker strings, and by how much this lower sonority pointed me toward different musical ideas. It works well as a drop tuning / alternate tuning guitar or baritone with the lowest string down to a C or even a B.
