Is the Fender Bass VI a Baritone Guitar?
No, the Fender Bass VI is not a baritone guitar. It is a six-string bass guitar, tuned one octave higher than a standard four-string bass guitar. The lowest string of the Bass VI is an E string, which is the same as the lowest string of a standard guitar. However, the Bass VI also has a C string, an F# string, a B string, an E string, and an A string, which are all one octave higher than their respective strings on a standard guitar. This gives the Bass VI a wider range of notes than a standard guitar, making it a versatile instrument for playing both bass lines and guitar parts.
