Product highlights

How Rathbone Constructs their Guitars

As guitars became more popular - and most importantly were able to project their tones more effectively - they found their way into dance bands and contemporary orchestras, often instead of, or as a complement to, the banjo.

A handful of these innovative early Barnes & Mullins guitars - borne from the heart of Rathbone Place - are still in circulation today, over 100 years later. These original instruments stood the test of time and have been providing pleasure for generations.

Consider the DADGAD Tuning for Irish Music!

The highly melodic nature of traditional Irish music needs a flexible approach to musical accompaniment.

Some guitar players find that chords formed using standard tuning – EADGBE – sound too standard and boring to match the nature of Irish folk melodies.

Instead, many Irish guitar players have turned to alternate tunings., for example DADGAD, which is the most popular alternate tuning used today in Irish music.

What is DADGAD?

"DADGAD" is an alternating tuning where the guitar is tuned to D,A,D,G,A,D. Many Irish guitar players prefer the sound of chords played with this tuning due to their more open, modal nature, giving greater freedom to the feel of the tune.

DADGAD allows players to accompany Irish music without dictating the sound according to the rules of a major or minor key. It instead creates a freer, more open sound, shaped by the melody of the tune itself.

Think this might be the right

instrument for you?
