Veillette® Gryphon High 12 - New

Though it's the smallest acoustic we make (and one of the smallest we've seen), the Acoustic Gryphon is no toy. Tuned to high D (2 frets lower than the 12th fret of a standard guitar) and tuned with mandolin-style unison courses, the Acoustic Gryphon's celestial, sparkling highs and punchy mid-register give it unique cut and punch, and an unusually wide range of applications. Guitarists will love being able to play mandolin-style parts in a new high register, and even guitar-mandolin doublers will find new horizons, like the ability to play guitar-like or fingerstyle patterns in a mandolin tonality.
The acoustic Gryphon's unique range comes from its 18.5" scale length and custom Gr-12 strings (gauges .008" to .042"). The Honduran mahogany back, sides, and neck, Sitka spruce top, and Pau Ferro bridge and fingerboard result in a tonally balanced, responsive, and beautiful instrument.
