Hey up,
I'm really wanting to try some of Southcoast's Classic Metal strings on my Bruko baritone, using B-flat tuning. On their site, they list the CMs as good for a 20inch scale but 'not recommended' on a 17inch scale. My Bruko has a 19inch scale, so I'm not sure of that pushes it into the 'not recommended' or whether it's just inside the 'good' zone.
Does anyone have any experience of the CMs on anything with a 19inch scale? Or is there an alternative tuning I could use to get the right tension?
All help appreciated, I'm relatively new to the baritone, so still working things out.
Cheers!
