Never heard of this one but I've got a 30" Danelectro baritone and it's awesome man! Such a fun guitar. I guess if you can try one of these SebZero ones out for yourself you'll know pretty quickly? Looks pretty nice and it should be fine for A or B tuning!

My gut feeling is that a baritone is going to be harder to learn on physically speaking because of the scale length. Your bass fingers/hand size may negate this though...

I was playing bass in a sludgy band for years and got the guitar itch so I picked up a baritone, it was ok for that niche but beyond that I didn’t find much use for it. We were only a three piece and it didn’t quite fill out the sound enough so I ended up ditching it and going back to bass :/
In hindsight I wish I’d gone for a Bass VI as it probably would have been a better fit but depends what you want to do with it.
Definitely think learning on one would be tricky unless you have massive hands, different style of playing though I guess.

I got this mint (condition) Danelectro a couple of weeks ago and it is wonderful.
The Tele feels like a mandolin after a session with it :)

So I'm thinking of buying a new instrument, because I haven't in like... years.
I play bass guitar and really want to learn regular guitar, but it just hasn't sparked yet, so I'm thinking baritone. Because... well, lower notes and all? Also I like the sound.
Is something like this okay-ish?

I'm looking for A or B Standard Tuning with an Elixir 12-68 Baritone stringset
I have considered a 30" Bass VI type guitar, but maybe that'll be too much? The guitar above is 27"
Any secret tips?
