Abstract
This work studied the principal modes of vibration of a baritone guitar with steel strings tuned to A1, D2, G2, C3, E3, and A3, a fifth below those of the usual folk guitar. Likewise, the corresponding resonances are designed to be a fifth below those of a steel‐string folk guitar [R. E. Ross and T. D. Rossing, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 65, S72 (1979)]. The modal shapes have been determined by scanning the plates with an accelerometer and also by scanning the nearfield sound with a probe microphone. Sound radiation fields in an anechoic room for several of the modes are also shown.
