Buy baritone Full step down tune Buy fuzz Make random triangular shapes on neck Play random power chords on lowest three strings Always ring out all open strings (especially the high 2nd) Record aimlessly at varying intervals of intensity for 15 minutes CONGRATS! You've now recorded Track 1 of the next album as the newest member of Thou!! (pleasenoteallperformancesandrecordingsaretobeplayedinsandals)

Baritone guitars where very popular in the 60s to help boost the bass parts that where being mixed for transistor radio.

STOP SPENDING MY MONEY!

Here's another reason: A song completely depends on an open chord part, like an open D riff that can't be moved down because of the chord voicing- slap a capo on the 3rd or 4th fret of a baritone and now it's in C or C# where the singer can now hit the notes. Think of it as a 'reverse capo' that can move down in pitch instead of up.

Or you if you've got a fender or PRS scale-length type guitar you could check out the new Mammoth Slinky's by Ernie Ball. I've set up my SE soapbar II in B standard, sounds fantastic (upgraded my p90s to a set of bare knuckle warpigs also). All it takes is a little research into setting up guitars: you'd need to adjust the truss rod and set the neck relief, widen the slots in the nut to match the new strings by either using wound strings to file the slots and/or by carefully using low-grit sandpaper, making sure the string height at the nut is correct too, then set the action (bridge height), then move the bridge saddles back and set the intonation. Also, use a low HB graphite pencil to lubricate the nut slots so you get better tuning stability. It's a reversible mod as well, except for the nut filing but new nuts are inexpensive to buy and if it doesn't come pre-filed to a good enough setting, it don't cost that much if you'd prefer to take it to a luthier and have them do a proper job on it :)

Great addition to the quiver! Love layering guitars and doubling with high strung acoustics and and baritones. Good stuff Rhett!!

I own an Ibanez mmm1 baritone guitar, best guitar I've ever owned

Just bought this exact guitar, and when it arrived and I tuned it up... fell in love immediately. Instantly my new favorite guitar. I got it for more of a "spaghetti western" sound like Rhett demos here... but then when I turned on some chorus, I realized how amazing this would also be for shoegaze, dreampop, postrock, you name it!

I'll never regret buying my baritone guitar. Love the sound and feel. Totally recommend getting one. ;)

A couple months ago my grandson hit me up for a baritone. I've been looking at them for him and now I've convinced myself I need one also!

i had a super similar experience a few weeks ago, checked out a danelectro baritone because i’d seen some of my favourite songwriters using them (phoebe bridgers & conor oberst mainly) and within about a minute of playing the thing i knew i just had to have it. i basically can’t stop writing songs on it and i love it. it’s also a great tool because my main band has three guitar players, so now when we’re writing songs, i can go to that and sit myself in a really cool sonic space

I keep coming back to this video a few times per week. That intro song is just amazing.

Been playing a baritone guitar for 13 years. Love it and rarely pickup a regular guitar unless it’s the Tele

I’ve used my baritone instead of a bass when a down tuning is called for. I have found some Tremonti songs that sound great with the baritone in place of the bass.

Ur passion is clear. Thanx for ur videos. I always find the info helpful

I totally agree, everyone should have a baritone in their collection. Cheers Rhett!!

I’ve always liked the idea of a baritone but haven’t bought one. I’ve finally realized (it’s embarrassing it has taken this long) that I can use a capo and have a standard or move it down in steps for tuning down.

I've got the same guitar in silver sparkle. Love it. It was one of those things I didn't know how much I needed until I got one. I use it on recordings all the time. More often than not. The tone with those lipsticks is very cool. Very twangy.

I liked the video but kept wanting for more playing, it sounded great!

I didn't know I need a baritone until this amazing intro!

Great tune Rhett! I too have succumbed to the call of the baritone. I've had a couple of different Danos - the headstock on yours is something I haven't seen before. Used to seeing 3+3 instead of the inline 6.

Having owned one, converted a couple 30" scale bass' to 6 string baritone, and finally built my own. Yeah, they're rather cool guitars. Open chords sound absolutely divine!!! Have not purchased an acoustic baritone guitar yet.

I seriously need that PRS 277 tuned to C. That’s literally gonna be my next guitar.

Davie504 *want's to know your location* He said he wants his Guitass back

I've been waiting about a month and a half for my warmoth jazzmaster body and baritone neck to finally show... Been watching these videos for weeks just to hold me over...

I confess, I’ve thought about buying s baritone, but it’s because I’m a bass player looking to broaden my horizons a bit. I love that chunky “Summer Time Blues”/Duane Eddy sound & I guess I spend time when I’m playing the bass thinking about songs that could benefit from the sound. Keep playing, I’ll keep watching. Cheers!

Rhett, love that song. Terrific writing and playing. You're getting really good with video too. Really like the low wide angle close shots and how you cut together. I've long had desire for a Dano guitar.(look cool, great quality and pretty cheap) Not thought about the baritone thing but will now. Could I suggest you do episode on noise gates? I use the Boss NS2, as I play single coils. It has a 'soft knee' so you don't notice it cutting in and out. I don't play professionally but all the hum and buzz drove me crazy. This thing kills most of it. No it's not perfect. A long held note w/ gain will start to let noise back in before the gate shuts But other than that, maybe my favorite pedal purchase.....and only one I've bought new. Oh, and maybe talk about power supplies for pedal boards. Linear supplies are the way to go. Cheap switching supplies daisy chained is an instant recipe for noise.

Video just started, and oh yeah to the yeah to yeah, it totally reinforces my own personal reasons why my next major guitar purchase will be a baritone. To put it into words, the main reason I must have a baritone guitar is because I could already hear myself making those sounds in my mind before I knew what it was. Okay wait, there's a list of reasons that pop right up, stemming from what my mind has already heard. 1. I heard me playing it before I knew what it was. 2. I played one in a guitar store and I was freaking awesome on it. 3. I heard one in the mix on some 70s rock band's album and it really hits me whenever I hear a baritone. 4. I got put on a baritone (the brass instrument) instead of a trumpet in 5th grade in the band in one of the schools I ended up at because of Daddy's life as a travelling welder. I'm a baritone person. I have a good baritone vocal range. Yep, I NEED a baritone guitar.
