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.

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.  

Going lower in 2018 looks pretty Awesome. A whopping 18 models, between 27.5" and 30" in scale that can take you lower today.  

A rad and very accessible baritone for modern, low tuned, heavy music players looking for great tuning and tension. 

There have been a bunch of requests for short baritones. Ibanez RGD, Reverend Decent, Jericho, ESP etc.. This one is kind of special. It’s a secret badass shorty.  

There’s been quite a few comments asking about the PRS SE277 series. The Semi Hollow model is the one I’m the interested in, so that’s what we’re looking at.  

We thought getting a baritone was gonna fix all of our low tuning problems, but it only fixed half of those problems. Trying to tune our 34” scale bass down lower than A just doesn’t usually work so well. No…

The Sidejack Baritone merges the cool retro looks of Mosrite most popularly used by the Ramones and the Ventures, with a sweet baritone scale length for tuning a bunch lower.  

Sharing newer discoveries, corrections and the stuff I left out of the initial 2017 Baritone Roundup that a lot of YOU GUYS have commented on, messaged and emailed me about.

Youtube subscriber Mark Bark asks "How hard it is to adjust the intonation should I want to drop the tuning down to F# or some other lower tuning than the factory B?". 

We’re looking at production 6 string baritones that come standard with a humbucker in the bridge position, and are at least 27.5” or longer in scale length.

In 1999 I started messing with trying to tune below B standard on a 24.75” “Gibson scale” guitar. It didn't work at all, even with HUGE strings. I found “Fender scale” of 25.5” a bit better- I could get down…
