Guitarro (instrument)

The Guitarro (Catalan: guitarró) is a small, baroque,^[1] five-stringed guitar^[2] from Aragon, slightly larger than the requinto or cavaquinho. The instrument is also found in other regions of Spain, such as Andalusia, La Mancha, and Murcia.

Common tuning is B F# D A E, but this sometimes varies. While all five strings are usually single, the three middle strings can also be doubly strung to produce a stronger sound.

Never intended as a solo instrument, the guitarro typically provides plucked accompaniment to Aragonese jotas and rondas.

This instrument was brought to America and there are instruments derived from it throughout America.
