[@NickBDesigns]

I bought a baritone a month ago and have been loving the extra low tunings with great intonation I dig this low e vibe

[@Zainmhz]

that's the right way to do it! the scale length is the way

[@NickBDesigns]

@@Zainmhz I just love the way the longer scale length (29.75in) sounds. Drop f and drop e are easy and sound huge. I’ve got a few of 24in scale guitar and always had trouble with intonation.

[@Zainmhz]

@@NickBDesigns haven't tried guitar with scale length longer than 27, even for that length drop E holds up pretty stable. so i assume 30 seems perfect for both tension and tonality.

[@NickBDesigns]

@@Zainmhz yep! I love it

[@billyturk8117]

I went baritone a cpl years ago and never went back. I was playing in drop a/g on a 25.5 forever. Now i have a 26.5 a 27 and a 28. Just need a 30". Im in love.

Soooo tempted to do this to my strat… maybe have an 8 string equivalent Drop E tuning with and Evertune bridge

[@Zainmhz]

an Evertune bridge definitely hold the tuning very well

[@gw9766]

That settles it. I’m ordering the beefiest 8 string set I can find for my seven string and tuning it allllll the way down 🤣 might go double drop d

[@timsportsman3171]

Thats what I did and it rules! had to file the nut for the low string and adjust the truss some but totally doable. Id suggest actually popping off your current nut (to save if you wanna go back to standard tuning) and buying a new one to hack up for the thicc bois

[@johnnyearf7943]

@@ZainmhzYeah but wouldn't that be a non issue with the right fat gauge low E string? Or is it just because you're trying to get such a low note with such a short scale length, regardless of the gauge of the string?

[@TF_ARCHIVES]

The hit after clean riff hit me with critical hits

[@Zainmhz]

A little surprise hit

[@praisebacchus]

man, it sounds great!! I have a question and if you answered it would help me a looot. So, I'm looking to buy a guitar to play drop E stuff, and I'm worried about what type of guitar I should get, I'm in between getting a 27" scale length baritone and put some .80 strings (a most expensive guitar) or a 26.5 lenght 7 string guitar (a cheapest one) and put the same gauge. The difference between prices is considerable, since I'm from Brazil and this kind of instrument here is very expensive, so what do you think is better to get? Should I take a 26.5" lenght for being less expensive? like, this length will handle a drop E tuning with the right string gauges without getting a floppy sound? or should I go safer and take a 27" baritone? It would help me so much if you answer me. Greetins from Brazil, man!! You nailed it.

[@Zainmhz]

thanks man! in my experience drop E on 26.5 with 80 gauge is still playable and hold the tuning well as long as the setup is right. but longer scale always a good option for a lower tuning.

[@AlwayzTired]

Bro, this is sick AF!

[@by.daekeryyy]

It sounds really great, any tips for this? (in my case i have a stratocaster and i want ADADGB tuning), issues, tips, intonation... please

[@Zainmhz]

that's pretty reasonable tuning to play on a strat, as long as you get thicker string you can play it in comfort, i would play 12-60 gauges if i tuned to that tuning. and thanks btw!

[@kiloxman117]

What are semitones? How do you implement them in tone?

[@Zainmhz]

As far as I understand, it’s basically a stair of notes. For instance if C tuned down 1 semitone it’s B, and if C +1 semitone it’s C# and so on

[@666ScarFace999]

Now play a powerchord with the low E as bass. Route the neck pickup to it's own amp and you have a bass and a guitar at the same time, basicly. It dooms more than it djents that way.

that'll sounds sick for sure
