ummmm.... reason its called raised b, the strings are raised to a higher pitch, you tuned down to baritone, wich cant be acheived on a standard guitar, (it can with a special tuning that i use, but not with the actual notes)

you have to do somethinspecial to get them that high though, read the DMBtabs faq.
to go baritone, you have to have a longer neck scale
ideally but not necessarily
For traditional baritone guitars, the neck scale is longer
wz up Brent?
