TERZ high tuned guitar

Terz (rhyming with hertz) means 'third' in German and indicates a guitar tuned up a minor third (three frets worth) compared to standard. This model is not designed as a 'travel' guitar, even though it is small and portable, but rather as a distinct instrument in its own right. You can of course get the same effect by capoing at the third fret on a normal guitar but the small body of this guitar dramatically enhances the sound at this pitch, giving a beautiful chiming, ringing tone.

Perfect for multi layered recording or guitar ensemble work or just to give a piece a unique character. I have decided to design my Terz as a fourteen fret guitar rather than a repro 'Baby Martin' or 'size 5' in order that it is a practical and versatile instrument.
