Thank you.

Let me do some research. What's your budget?

Zero but I need to make something happen so as little as possible, like $150-200. This will be exclusively for very sludgy stuff so I don't need something high quality. I will use stock pups. 26&1/2" or 27" scale. Most of them are big bucks or at least $350ish.

Rondo doesn't have a special baritone section on their website so I think the 6 string ones are mixed in with the regular 6ers.

My next guitar is gonna be an SBG dammit since I've half assed attempted to buy 2 from this hear jam room to no avail.

wtf is an "SBG"?

Solid body guitar? Supremo boner guitar? Super bogus guitar?

You may be looking for top shelf on a boxed wine budget. Get the 7 string.

The Douglas.. yeah, I probably should. Might shoot Rondo an email first though. A wider neck means more weight crushing my little shoulder and back.

They have a search function. I searched for "baritone" and came up with this:

EDIT: Also found this Agile LP style baritone on sale

They also have some other Douglas LP style baritones for under $200. Just search "27", because they put the scale length in the model number to denote baritones I guess.

Ah. Good price on that LP. I'd prefer double cut away but.. hmmm..

This 26.5" Jackson is cheap too- http://www.americanmusical.com/Item--i-JAC-2910131-LIST

Nice...for that price you could afford to upgrade with a GFS pickup or something as well.

[BrianDamage]

The guitars they sell at Rondo are well made but expect to eventually change out all the electronics and hardware. Also the Douglas Spad is basically an ESP Horizon with a different headstock and shitty pickups. They play fucking awesome though.

Guess I should start pricing an SGB, because... oh no!

[VOLVO)))]

Hehehe

I'd never take it from you. I want a beat to shit one, i was scared to play that one.

I told you when I bought it you'd get dibs.

On the string issue...I think my big string is a 72 and I tune to B standard or drop-A.  It's tight; you can totally tremolo-pick on it and it's dead-on.  Yeah, my tremolo-picking sucks, but I'm saying that if YOU did it, it would sound dead-on.

Ah. Or get something better down the road and keep it as a backup maybe.

My Scroll(25&1/2" scale) has a 56 for the low B and I think it's tight enough for tremolo picking although I don't do anything fast like death metal, just mid-paced at most. It's kind of loose but tight enough for me. Lately I've been trying to tune most of the strings a tad flat so that they are closer to on when I actually fret notes but not so flat that they sound flat open. Slightly tricky.



That Yamaha is beautiful.

[liquidsmoke]

"tribal green"? Looks more like emerald wizard eye green. All of that cream should be black though.




Turns out these pups are actually like 9.5 lbs 

[Danny G]

Looks like Ocean of Stars will have a very worthy debut this year for SXSW

Still waiting for final confirmation on 2-3 big shows, one of which being an official SXSW showcase, which fell into our laps. And we didn't even have to apply. Hahahaha!

SXFU

Keep y'all posted

I like the green one looks like a really nice guitar! I'm looking forward to getting another guitar this year, and using a damn hard case! My poor Aria is so battered :x

[RAGER]

Nice work Danny. You a hard workin mofo! 

[liquidsmoke]

If there is a pedal that likes floppy low strings it's the super/hyper fuzz. Damn. I don't actually need a baritone but still want one.
