High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The baritone guitar is a variation on the standard guitar, with a longer scale length that allows it to be tuned to a lower range. It first appeared in the classical music realm. The Danelectro Company was the first to introduce the electric baritone guitar in the late 1950s. Shortly after, Fender released the Bass VI which can be described as either a baritone guitar, or a bass guitar. The baritone guitar was not originally popular with players or listeners. However, the instrument began to appear in surf music, as well as background music for many movie soundtracks, especially spaghetti westerns. In more recent history, the baritone guitar has found use within rock and metal. Baritone guitars also have the capacity to be used as a bass guitar if strung correctly. A standard guitar's standard tuning is E A D G B E. Baritone guitars are usually tuned a perfect fifth lower , a perfect fourth lower, a major third lower or an octave lower. Gretsch, Fender, Gibson, Danelectro, Jerry Jones, Burns London and many other companies have produced baritone guitars since the 1960s, although always in small numbers due to low popularity.
