Baritone 6 options in 2022?

Yeah I know I won’t find the guitar comfortable to play but I’ll deal with it for writing and recording.

I like playing longer scale guitars. If you want to own one, but find it uncomfortable to play, you could buy it and send it to my house, then I could play it for you.

Those Squier Cabronita baritone's are 27 inches, which I find a good in between baritone and standard, its a full inch and a half longer but the way they spread it out and push back the bridge instead of making the neck longer (I know technically its all longer, but the way they do it in this guitar feels pretty close). Only thing is that I'm pretty sure they only have P90 routes.

Do the RGB121

I did this a few years ago:



Gat damn that thing was gnarly. I did a one pup Warpig/guard combo and it wa sick.

I loved that guitar, sorta fat ESP type neck with a flat strip down the middle. Was great.

I forgot, Balaguer makes anything with those scales in 6 strings IIRC.

They look cool but the customs charge for Ireland and shipping will ad 40%-50% to the price.

this pleases me. Where did you get your pickguard done? I think @CanserDYI may be interested in knowing

Appreciate the help, but I just got mine ordered from WDmusic.com they have a Tosin Abasi template that will fit the RG8.

This Subzero Rogue VI 30” Baritone looks very nice.

 

[Vegetta]

Just announced new Squire Baritone Teles with 3 saddle bridges and S S pickups for $499 US

They are not on the fender site yet tho they have added several other new models.

[Zhysick]

FUCK YES! All right... I'm getting one... is double bound probably too!! YES!

 

[Vegetta]

Yeah i am getting one also haha

 

[Vegetta]

I was thinking if this has the route to allow it I may convert it to an S H with a coil split on the H

Don't think so honestly. Probably going to need to either do stacked single or route it out yourself.

 

[DropTheSun]

So, I bought this cheap (379 euro) SubZero Rogue IV Bariton.

Honestly, this is pretty awesome! Mine has just a tiny cosmetic flaw in the headstock binding. I mean, it is really small. Other, than that this guitar is perfect. Great fretwork, no sharp fret edges, the neck Truss Rod works like a dream, it intonates in Drop E1 perfectly.... Gotta say, that this guitar is a steal!

I changed lighter strings, lowered action, raised the pickups and adjusted the Truss Rod. Other, than that the guitar is all Stock in that video clip. Sounds badass to me and plays great!

 

[mechanyx]

I recently scored an RGIB6 which I prefer to the RGIB21 because I can't stand offset dots but otherwise seem like very similar guitars. It sounds great. The neck is the thickest I've ever seen on an Ibanez by far but I don't mind. Really great guitar and would recommend it. I just wish it were a 7. If I can find a 28+ inch 7 string, I will let this go.

 

[wheresthefbomb]

Those teles look cool. I had one of the Fender Blacktop Bariteles with the HB bridge. I traded it for a Tiny Terror which consistently lost value, meanwhile the tele consistently gained value and the dude I traded it to traded it for a Reverend Bari Jazzmaster. I lost out on that one for sure haha.

Glad to see some non superstrat baritones. I wish Agile would do another run of baritone ALs.

My SubZero with Lundgrens, Hipshot locking tuners, new nut, and a complete rewire with a killswitch instead of a tone knob/new switch/pots/knob/jack

 

[Koldunya]

I found a Hellraiser from 2011 but can't find much info about it after that or any sale ads.
