I played an Alembic Orion in green this weekend that was owned by Steve Miller. Probably not a guitar for everyone, but that thing had some hi-fi depth. Impeccable craftsmanship, as well.
Alembic make Orions in all formats, guitar, baritone and bass as you wish... Budda amps will be in the high end range, but I tell you, VALUE FOR MONEY.
I have been thinking about purchasing the budda superdrive 80. How do you like the tones? I haven't gotten a chance to try it out yet, and I'm looking for some outside opinions. thanks
Well, The 80 is one of my favorite amps, great tones! And it's extremely loud, too - if you want to. But by turning down the master, it still sounds great. But one thing is sure: You'll never find any drummer playing you off stage!
Well, actually, we were involved in the creation of the very first Alembic barytone.... we made the specs and had Alembic make a "shrinked" bass with 6 strings, 28" scale... and the sound has stayed with us since. And the longer scale i essencial- plus the pickups of course!
I want to hear it with some drive!

Are all of the Orions baritone? And are the Buddha amps expensive?

cool. What made you choose the baritone guitar over a 7-string or a normal tuned guitar?

What are you tuned to, do you mind me asking?

This is "regular guitar tuning", but in B (B-#F-D-A-E-B)
