What gauge are baritone guitar strings?

Baritone Guitar Strings and Tuning A baritone guitar neck is typically 27 to 30 inches in length — about 2 to 4 inches longer than a typical guitar neck. Because of this long neck, baritone guitar strings are typically . 012 to . 014 gauge — but can go even heavier depending on style.

What strings do baritone guitars use?

12 gauge (. 012–. 060) guitar strings can also be used. Baritone acoustic guitars typically have larger bodies than standard guitars, and have longer scale lengths so the strings can be tuned lower while remaining at normal tension.

Do you need different strings for a baritone guitar?

Since baritone guitars have a longer neck scale and are designed to be tuned lower (think between a bass and a regular guitar) you will get best results with a heavier set of strings. On an electric baritone, you might try a set of 13–62, or 14–68 gauge and take it from there.

Can a baritone guitar be tuned to standard?

A baritone guitar is a guitar with a longer neck which is normally tuned to B standard (B-E-A-D-F#-B, also known as ‘Baritone tuning’) or A Standard, which is a tone lower (A-D-G-C-E-A). The neck is longer to facilitate a 27” scale length.

Are baritone guitars good for metal?

Baritone guitars for metal offer all that low range that you need, can go where the regular guitar can’t, and provide sounds that are up to a full fifth lower than standard 6-strings. Thanks to their longer scale, baritone guitars let you play much lower and deeper while preserving intonation and tuning.

Can you put normal strings on a baritone guitar?

Baritone refers to tuning more so than a particular guitar model. This means you can easily swap out a standard set of strings for a baritone six-string set.

Is a baritone guitar worth it?

It’s a versatile instrument, too. When played in the first position and up to the third fret, baritone guitars produce the classic tone they’re known for. But when played above that, some of the brashness tempers, and they sounds closer to a regular electric guitar, only fatter.
