I have recently done exactly this with a Harley Benton Tele (TE-20 HH SBK). I fitted a set of Mammoth Slinkies (12-62). I've used it for Metal and Ambient. The great thing with the 62 bottom string is that you can tune to Drop A. Filing the slots is so quick you have to be careful not to overdo it!
About 2 years ago I got a Dean and a pink Squier bullet for $110 total at my local pawn. I swapped the humbuckers for p90’s on the Dean and swapped out the bridge and neck pickups on the strat for hot rails.
Then I put SUPER HEAVY strings on them and it took me MONTHS to figure out to make them sound good. They definitely look great(clear p90’s on the brown Dean and did this whole polka dot pink and gold punk girl type thing with the $40 strat that I invested $300 into).
Little did I know UNTIL JUST NOW that I had built 2 baritone guitars… I’m literally laughing so hard it hurts.
For 2 years I’ve never figured these things out unless it was HEAVY HEAVY music. But, it all makes sense now!!!
Thanks for this video. I’m gonna enjoy these so much more now.
I’m changing the tuning the moment I hit send on this message and hoping it’s everything I hoped for on these builds.
Omg, I feel so dumb. This sounds so good! These guitars have been hanging on the wall for almost a solid year except when someone wanted to get heavy.
It’s a whole new guitar! Now onto testing the strat with hot rails xD
For some reason I had not been shown this vodeo. This is very cool. The clean sounds witth tremolo are gorgeous. Cheers.
Thanks J! Haha yea you know me and my tremolo obsession.. trem-session
Nicely done, this mod sounds awesome and very useable! 25.5" scale length is maybe the practical minimum for 'baritone' and this shows you don't need 27" (eg 7 string or Squier Baritone Tele) to get a great tone. But I always wondered if a stock 6 string truss rod can handle the higher tension that you're running now, can you please give us an update at some point if there's tuning stability issues.
Cool idea using a 7 string set. I've got a spare guitar I'm going to try this on. I took another guitar I wasn't playing and turned it into a nashville tuning guitar by using the octave strings from a 12 string set. Good video.
This is what I've been looking for for years. I always wanted to have a baritone guitar. I will try with your solution now!
Awesome! You will enjoy. It's ridiculously fun :)
@@joeytheguitarplayer Thanks! Is there any problem with intonation or tuning problems?
@Cozzzy Days It needed minor intonation adjustments after the change but nothing crazy. Just the saddles. Neck stayed straight too, didn't even need a truss rod adjustment here. Tuning staying solid so far :)
@@joeytheguitarplayer Thank you so much! I own the Squier classic vibe 50's telecaster. I hope stock tuners won't cause tuning problems.
Excellent work! Thank you for the video, playing, and knowledge! Will it be harder to switch back to standard tuning strings (EADGBE) after the nut slots are widened?
Hey thanks Darius! I don't know for sure about other scenarios, but in this particular case they didn't need a lot of work to actually fit the slightly larger set. Just some minor widening.
So I'm thinking it would be fine, prob just need a few intonation adjustments if I swapped back.
Would you not be able to do this with a set of baritone strings as well?
I suppose the gauge would be the same basically
Reminds me of Ariel Posen and Joey Landreth
Yes I would like to try a proper baritone set. I think String Joy makes a few. Should be pretty cool to use a set actually designed for that you know. And yea man AP all the way ;)
Who wants to practice more when you could instead just go buy something - that one hurt! You hash tagged it and everything. Interesting video. I watched another youtuber that described the location of the pickups being a function of the scale length and therefore it would also be a function of the string tension. Did you notice any drop in perceivable volume due to the change?
Hey Travis! Haha, sorry man, I definitely didn't mean to hit anyone with that line except myself 🤣
Hmm interesting question.. I didn't notice any changes on that front here :)
That's exactly my problem, it's easier to look at the guitars and wonder what is missing than play the guitars and accept what I have is all I need.
Cool sound, but tuning doesn't mean baritone. The term baritone is defined by the scale length
Or, then lazy me I would just get an Octaver pedal.
🤣🤣🤣 nice
it's not a baritone guitar, you just downtuned it
