THE BUNN

Friday September 3rd was another legendary Bandcamp Friday. Since Bandcamp Friday's inception, The Bunn has been trying to commit to as many as possible. At least one track per month.

Over the the last bunch of years The Bunn has gathered quite a bit of info surrounding Baritones, Bass VIs and all that comes with the super-low.

Today we are talking about 6 tips and tricks to save you from some frustration so that you can spend more time playing, writing and recording. Some of this is specific to baritone, some is good for any guitar.

The RGIB21 Baritone by Ibanez, it is the successor to the RGIB6 and is kiiiind of similar. Another 28” scale-length RG with EMGs.

8 different baritones ranging in scale lengths from 27.5” to 30”.

It looks like a bass, but a short one, with 6 strings that are a bunch lighter than normal...

Production 6 string baritones, over 27.5” in scale, for tuning down to Drop G, all the way down to Low E Standard, for heavier music styles.

Instead of another, "same-ol" guitar demo, we are gonna use this here Danelectro Semi-hollow Vintage Baritone to write, record, and release a swampy, sludge track. 

You have a cheap squier Strat or Tele laying around and you think that you are gonna save yourself a pile of money and do a baritone conversion.

Is the Gretsch Electromatic Jet Baritone any good for heavy music? With looks straight from out of Nashville, most would never even consider playing this guitar with any amount of gain.  

Can we take a 24.75” scale guitar (Gibson scale) which is tuned to E standard and can we use The Drop to go SUPER low? 

Today we are gonna cover 7 brands of 6 string baritone strings and some of the differences between them, so that YOU can decide which is right for you.
