Baritone Acoustic Guitar

I was just suggesting to L20A some alternative sets to try over the counter.(Or at least from Breezy Ridge. I can't imagine that "F tuning" set is any more widely stocked than any other Baritone sets are)

Thank you for the suggestions.

I don't use mine that often. If I have something written in E-minor, I'll probably use the Baritone because that will transpose to B-minor which fits my voice much better.

If I am playing "stunt guitarist" for the wife, then I use it quite a bit as it pairs very well with her vocal range.

I say I use:
6-string: 85%
12-string: 10%
Baritone: 5%

I did a discussion video on mine a week ago.

I just picked up this: https://www.alvarezguitars.com/guitar/ag60-8ceshb/

It's an 8 string but it is standard tuning and the D & G are doubled up. You get the 12 string sound but with some easier playing. Loud as well. Never seen one before and really like it so far (5 days in!!).

I have a Larrivee BT-03 baritone. Mine is tuned to C# with medium strings 13 - 56. Currently not getting played much as I am busy putting a new band together. But when I crawl back into my acoustic funk it'll make it's appearance.
