jubilee-------psalmist-------jericho-------minstrel-----

To better suite the needs of our customers, we have expanded the Baruke line to include four body styles.  The Jubilee and the Psalmist have received some refinements resulting in smoother lines visually, and are now accompanied in the lineup by the Jericho and the Minstrel.  All four models are available in four series.  Additional options are also available.

jubilee

The Jubilee is the original and most popular bodystyle offered by Baruke Guitars. The Jubilee has a fullness of sound and volume expected from a guitar this size, but also possesses excellent note separation and a strong attack, making it the ideal choice for anyone wanting a single guitar for a variety of styles.

The Jubilee's body size is comparable to what is often referred to as a small jumbo.

Body depth: 4.6" at tail block, 4" at heel block
Body width: 16.15" lower bout, 11.5" upper bout, 9.8" waist
Body length: 20"
Overall length: 40.75"

psalmist

The Psalmist can be compared in size to a grand concert and is an extremely comfortable guitar to play. It maintains the projection of a larger guitar,  yet possesses all the characteristics desired for fingerstyle such as a quick attack, a responsive top to subtle dynamic changes, an even response across the entire frequency range, and excellent note seperation.

Body depth: 4.5" at tail block, 3.75" at heel block
Body width: 15.4" lower bout, 11" upper bout, 9.4" waist
Body length: 19.5"
Overall length: 40.25"

jericho

The Jericho is Baruke's response to requests received for a dreadnought bodystyle. The Jericho has a slightly rounder profile reminiscent of the slope shouldered dreadnoughts of yesteryear.

The Jericho is designed for the player in need of a cannon that can be played hard and loud.  It possesses the punch and volume necessary to cut through a mix, yet maintains the tonal signature players have come to associate with the Baruke sound.

Body depth: 4 .62" at tail block, 4" at heel block
Body width: 15 .7" lower bout, 11.5" upper bout, 10.5" waist
Body length: 20"
Overall length: 40.75"

minstrel

The Minstrel is a pure joy to play. With similar dimension to a 000 size, the Minstrel is the smallest guitar in the Baruke line. By making subtle, yet critical adjustments to brace placement and by voicing the top in relation to the specific body size, we are able to produce a small guitar with a big sound and character.

The Minstrel is available with either a 12th fret or a 14th fret neck to body joint.

Body depth: 3.8" at tail block, 3.3" at heel block
Body width: 14 .75" lower bout, 10.25" upper bout, 9" waist
Body length: 18.75"
Overall length: 38.8"
