"Dan Crary used to use a custom baritone Taylor often. Gives you some more tonal options. If I remember correctly he was tuned D to D, and would capo at 2 for standard tuning."

Martin recently began making a Baritone Guitar tuned B to B. Looks interesting. Has anyone had a good experience using a baritone for flatpicking or bluegrass?

Larry Wisse replied to Andrew's discussion Hangman's Reel"It's a great tune. I play backup to Rick Thum on this several times per year. We play it in A. Have a look and listen.

Monty Smith said… - Hey, Andrew,
Thanks. I don't know if I'm as advanced as you might think. I've been playing a long time, and I have messed with some fiddle tunes here and there. But mostly I've been a strum-and-sing guy. I've only just recently started focusing any real effort on flatpicking.
I'll give you a ring after the holidays when my schedule gets back to something hopefully resembling "normal."

- Hi again, Andrew,
I am indeed interested in following up on getting together to pick. I'll send an email to the address you listed in the discussion thread.

"Thanks Mike. I have to prove to myself that I can play the material as written but once I've done that I start to allow myself some leeway to have fun and drop in my own bits. There's not too much space to do that in SK's version of…"
