Latest from Guitar World
Gibson has seemingly confirmed that it’s returning to the low-tuned worlds of seven-string and baritone guitars, with its Superstrat-esque Victory model set for a makeover.
Heck, even Ed Sheeran launched a baritone with PRS at NAMM, so their current popularity is inarguable.
For example, Mark Tremonti’s PRS baritone has a 25.5” scale – but given most PRS Guitars are built to a 24.75” scale, it could be classed as having an extended range.
So, what scale length is a Gibson baritone likely to have?
