Restrung with Bass VI strings to use as a short scale bass tuned E to E rather than Baritone guitar. Plays like a guitar, sounds like a bass. Exactly what I wanted. Love the look, feel and sound of it.
Alvarez Abt60e Baritone Acoustic Electric Guitar
Each of the pick ups has its own distinct sound so with selections of either or both pickups / tone rolled off or left on / picked or finger-style (can’t entirely slap as strings so close together - although I’m sure some with more expertise than me would be able to) / muted or open playing, there is plenty of scope to find the sound you want to accompany any style of music.
Only minor gripes are the used of domed screws on the back so they protrude rather than being flush to the body and there’s decoration around the edge so it’s looks like a black / cream / black sandwich from the side. It does look cool from a distance until you look closely and realise it’s a bit of vinyl stuck on to the guitar rather than part of the guitar paint job. Probably wouldn’t mind if the vinyl strip had been finished more neatly but it overlaps at bridge side strap button which isn’t quite what I’d expect.
It is a very minor gripe though, the domed screws are slightly more annoying but overall and for the price, it is a fantastic instrument. Niche instrument, yes, but fantastic nonetheless and so pleased I bought it.

Finden Sie diese Bewertung falsch oder aus irgendeinem Grund unzumutbar? Bitte schreiben Sie uns in das folgende Textfeld den Grund für Ihre Einschätzung und - wenn möglich - Ihre E-Mail-Adresse für Rückfragen.A left handed baritone guitar will reward you with easy access to those low tunings you’ve been craving, and without the woes associated with down-tuning a standard scale length guitar.
Attempting to tune down super-low on a regular guitar will result in a whole raft of issues such as floppy strings, fret buzz, poor intonation, and a lower quality of tone.
In this guide, we’ll look at what a baritone guitar actually is, why you might want one, and then I’ll list some reasonably easy-to-find left handed options for those looking for inspiration.
Lefty Fusion Walnut Evertune
A baritone guitar has a longer scale length than usual (typically 27″-30″), which allows the instrument to be tuned much lower than standard tuning. They are generally tuned to B standard (B-E-A-D-F#-B), although you can tune higher or lower if you’d prefer.
A baritone will also use much heavier gauge strings than you’ll find on your standard guitars. For example, many will come from the factory with .013-.062 string sets, whereas .010-.046 is more common on standard scale length guitars.
The longer scale length, coupled with heavier strings, gives the baritone guitar a very impressive tone on the bass notes, as well as the snappy feel of strings at their optimum tension.

Absolutely! Regardless of your musical tastes or specific playstyle, a baritone guitar will open up a whole new range of sounds while still retaining the chord and scale shapes that you are already familiar with.
In this guide, we will talk about guitars which are readily available as standard from popular brands. Obviously, you can order a custom left-handed baritone guitar and open up a much wider choice of instruments if you’d rather not buy ‘off-the-rack’.

The monster left handed Schecter Hellraiser C-VI has the longest scale length of all options here at 30″, making it a great choice for ultra-low tunings. It actually comes tuned an octave below standard tuning as standard, so technically it’s a Bass 6! You’d probably be better off thinking of it as a guitar/bass hybrid.
Main features include a mahogany body with an arched, quilted maple top, and a mahogany neck with 24 fret rosewood fingerboard. On pickup duties are an active EMG 81TW in the bridge position and an EMG 89R in the neck.

This is a difficult question, and the answer will vary depending on your situation. A baritone guitar will be a very familiar feeling instrument to pick up, and will generally offer better string tension. Whereas a 7-string will give you that additional range if you think you’ll need it.
