Hey everybody...I really want to do a cover of Some Devil and write some stuff on a bari...but i don't have the money to buy a new one....Is there a way i can make my standard tune electric baritone??....I know they have a longer neck...But could i just do a raised B thing like on an acoustic?
Cheers,
Jack
Baritone guitar?

No i'm not getting one because of dave...i want to write a couple songs on it....and i wouldn't be buying one....lol....no money in the bank of Jack....I only have $190 and its going into a nice new standard tuned electric guitar...I do know the song in standard and baritone.....but i would like to play it on a bari
I've lowered my acoustic down to the baritone tuning before. Not my brightest idea, and I can't say if it did any damage to the guitar. It did nothing to MY guitar, but I could just be a big lucky on that front.
Overall, I would just suggest sticking to standard at the moment, since I don't even know if what I did was safe.

Do you know if i can buy a Bari neck?
No.. i recommend using a suncity guitar and tune it upto raised B.. write some songs and if you like em then get a baritone guitar... if you have no luck..don't waste your money for a few songs. Trust me tuning up a good guitar fucks it up.. good thing lil burtha is a party guitar now.. lol

Do you need carpentry skills to screw a neck into an electric guitar???? Not really........The dimensions have to be right but yeah you can do it....I'm not sure where your getting at.
