bostjan said:There is no strict definition of Baritone guitar, but it is generally considered a guitar with a scale length of 28"-30", although 30" is also a bass scale, so there is some overlappage. Guitars from 26"-28" are generally termed "Extended scale."
There are also Soprano guitars (one octave higher), Alto guitars (tuned either a fourth or a fifth higher than a regular guitar) and Tenor guitars (tuned either like a four string banjo or the four smallest strings on a regular guitar). From this pattern, we see that a "Baritone guitar" is what is intended to be tuned either a fourth or a fifth below the guitar, and a Bass guitar is meant to be tuned an octave lower.
