Sounds great. Come to think of it, this is the only Bajo Sexto I have seen so far that has no cutaway.

[ultramax123]

[ELGERA88]

[Alekayeatsomar]

its standard guitar tuning until you get to the b and e strings these strings change to c and f. the base strings are at octaves and the treble are tuned the same.

[Cadetebaterista]

oye dude um how do you tune a bajo quinto or a bajo sexto

[misionnortena]

whats the name of the pickups and where can I get one? how do you manage to put two of them together do you run them in stereo into a mono or ?

[guitarmaster20000]

can you put bajo sexto strings on to a 12 string guitar or would they be to thick ?

[lupe696969]

yes it can but its going to have a different sound than a 12 string

[lupe696969]

No a bajo sexto strings are steel.

[lupe696969]

I dont think so because the bajo sexto is a little bit bigger than a 12 acoustic but the 12 acoustic can be change to be a bajo sxt

[guitarmaster20000]

so basically by detuning the 12 string acoustic i can make it sound like a bajo sexto

[lupe696969]

no the 12 string will sound a little bit different

[ivan357ag]

no, unless u get bajosexto strings for ur guitar and tune it like a bajosexto.

[Basoria85]

you can tune it but just raise the tone of the last lower three, the sound will be brighter

[manzruin]

The scale length is much longer on a bajo sexto than a guitar, and even the bajo's scale length is barely long enough for the lowest notes. A 12 string guitar's intonation will be so far off it would be unusable, no matter what strings you use, if you try to tune it like a bajo sexto.

[psychotikpaisano]

Actually, I tuned my 12 string fender like a bajosexto :)

The video is on my page.

[bajoquinto27]

ay nomas parientito .. humildemente y sencillo el maestro . mis repetos

[Eastcompton88]

im pretty sure that chunk of metal in the sound hole isnt good. A bajo needs warmth and presence.

[jmp6996]

the chunk of metal is the pick-up like in a electric guitar it makes the bajo able to connect to a amp

[elcochodeguerrero]

que opinan de mi bajo quinto washburn?

[dinamitapunk]

[irvgarcia19]

[danny239]

can i buy one of these?

[plaguebacillus]

that cool megusta tocar eso

[atlista]

Very nice.

I have a question, hopefully you can answer it.

Is a 12 STRING GUITAR and a Bajo Sexto the same thing?

Is the only difference the last two strings (1st and 2nd strings), are tuned or are changed from e and B to C and F?

[jimenezbajos]

The difference between a twelve string guitar and a bajosexto is the tuning: EADGBE and a bajosexto is EADGCF, you are correct but it is not just tuning the string gauge is different. Also the whole instrument construction is different, the brace pattern for the top is different on bajo than it is for a standard twelve string guitar. To get the true bajo sound you need to be playing a bajo sexto or bajo quinto. Hope that answers your question.

Jaime Jimenez

[SinginPlayinWritinMe]

There are more differences between a 12-string and a bajo sexto! Yes, the NOTES of the tuning are as Jaime describes them, BUT the bajo sexto is tuned an octave LOWER overall. The bajo's first-course "F" is nearly an octave lower than the 12-string's first-course "E". Also, there's a difference in the third course: on a 12-string, the two strings of the third course are tuned an octave apart, but on the bajo they are tuned to the same tone (there is no "high G").

[LGrey8]

@atlista Also, the low E is an octave lower than the guitar.

[VulpesAurum]

@atlista Also, the bajo sexto is tuned an octave lower than the 12-string guitar, essentially making it a 12-string bass guitar. In fact, the name "bajo sexto" is Spanish for "sixth bass."

[Mushelby69]

Awesome job!! :D

[MiguelE2318]

rockin old man!!!

[envika]

i love that thing

[3Romeo3]

i think dean markleys have a bad ass sound but ghs strings sound just as good and they last longer

[gilbeertoo]

chingoneria..

[RainMan1957]

suena muy bonito ese bajo con dos pickups, oh yeah:)

[gtrumpnc]

That's a rich sound. Whatever it is you're doing to them, keep doing it. It's great.

[mrod15667]

Very nice strong sound and quality. Does anyone know what brand of strings the bajo has? I heard that ghs were pretty decent.

thanks

[jlerma001]

Hey, Jimenez uses GHS on all there bajos. Hope this helps.

[viendoapepebiondi]

bien!!!

[LoneStar420]

Nice Job on the Bajo!!!

It sounds great with the double pickups.

How about a video of the Trinagular Bajo in the background.

What's the story on that unique Bajo.

[jimenezbajos]

I need to do a bit of work to it to get it back playing again. It sounds a little quiet because of the shape but plugged in it sounds good. It was ordered along time ago and the person who asked for it moved and we never heard from him again. It sat unfinished for a long time and about a year or so ago we my Dad and finished it. and now it sits.

[NeraVeido]

@LoneStar420 I think that's a balalaika.

[3Romeo3]

sounds bad ass i'm thinking of putting two pickups on my bajo but i asked and they told me it doesn't make a difference if it has one or two pickups but i think it should make a difference.

[jlerma001]

Hey Jaime, The bajo sounds awsome. You guys do great work
