Baritone-guitar-question:

[Big V]

Two questions:
1:What kind of gigbags/cases are useable when you want to carry around a baritone -scale-guitar?(Warmoth-baritone-scale)

2:What are the differences between Warmoth Pro Construction and Baritone Scale-conversion, except number of frets, back-contour and length, of course :tard:

conversion necks are all warmoth pro construction

The difference is that it's longer, giving your guitar a deeper tone. However, it's harder to play stretchy stuff on a baritone neck, but it's great for tunings like C standard or the likes.

Other than that, it's just like a normal neck. When it comes to cases/bags, I guess you can either search for a baritone bag (if it exists) or a small bass bag.

Thanks, guys :icon_thumright: that was everything I needed :toothy10:
I heard some rumors that the baritone-scale-guitars had higher string-tension, so you could tune them lower than normal, I don't think my Ibanez ART300 which I believe is a Gibson-scale-guitar, is not really that good for low tunings, which is stupid, as they claim that it is mostly a metal-guitar :doh:
Anyhow, with a baritone, (and a floyd rose) I will really be able to go deep, and i've allways missed the ability to do that arty07:

You can play some great metal in E or D# Standard though.

It's not all about going low, it's mostly about what you're doing with it!

Well the whole thing w/ the longer scale is that you have more length of string. to keep it at the same pitch it needs to be a thinner string or higher tension. The idea that it's going to give you a "deeper" tone is an illusion. What it does is allow you tune to a lower pitch, keeping string gauge and tension the same. Personally I think you'll get a "deeper" tone using heavier strings on a 25 1/2" scale guitar, but it's a matter of many factors. For instance, if you want to tune down to B standard, I don't think a standard scale will cut it. On the other hand lots of people have been getting great sounds detuned to hell on Gibsons and other guitars that aren't baritone. There's a band called Pelican that tunes down to B on Les Pauls - I would never use that sound myself, but in context I like it a lot.
