If you are over 6' 6" tall and therefore have extra long fingers, go for it. Sadly I am neither and anything with 6 strings means guitar not bass for me.Originally Posted by dave.king1
So a Fender VI would be the absolute dogs bollocks then

Quite the opposite, the Fender has a 30" scale and the neck is very similar width to a Strat

Might have to look into that one day. In the middle of building a 5 string and need to figure that out first before contemplating another string below the low B.
Fender VI is tuned E to E but an octave lower than Guitar.
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
Interesting. How does that compare to a baritone guitar?
The more popular tunings for the Baritone are:
A perfect fifth A D G C E A, an augmented fourth Bb Eb Ab Db F Bb, a perfect fourth B E A D F♯ B or a major third lower C F Bb Eb G C

I love it when you talk dirty to us DB
Speaking of tuning has anyone tried Robert Fripp's " new standard tuning "
No. I read his Guitar Craft articles and decided I don't take enough drugs to understand him. Either the '60s were "good" to Robert or he is an alien visitor.I love it when you talk dirty to us DB
