Baritone Guits

Post by WeHuntKings »

So, recently I have been super interested in buying a baritone guitar (even though I still need to pounce on the right tube amp).

What are some models that are cheapish and still sound good? The Eastwood Sidejack has caught my eye.

Does anyone here have a preferred extended range guitar?

The extra two or three inches on the neck give you a stronger low end and cut down on any fret buzz.

Are there any other set neck models out there that aren't wildly expensive? I'm kinda over my strat's snappy attack.

You can call Fatdog at Subway Guitars in edit : Berkeley, tell him what you want. He'll build you a baritone for under 500$ to your specs. Parts will be of questionable origin and quality, but it should be setup and ready to play perfectly. Usually a safe bet for a fully custom built guitar.

Wait for Nelson to bust out his <900 line. and get yourself a different custom beast.

You can scoop up those Black Fender HH Baritone for around 500$ +/- 100$ or so.

How low are you wanting?

One day an Electrical Guitar Company baritone will be mine. Far from cheap, though.

Gibson makes a Les Paul Baritone, but it hasn't been around long enough to find one used, which is the only way it would be close to worth the money.

Rondo Music also makes baris that are around $400, but at $450 for the Sidejack with trem, that's tough to beat.
Maybe partying will help.

Hagstrom announced the viking baritone at namm this weekend.
Hollow bari? Want.

I've got an agile LP style baritone that is killer for the price I paid.
There are some that call me...morningstaru?
