    HA!

    I won't be putting them on a standard guitar and I sure won't be tuning them to E!

    That's also known as the Dick Dale Extra Extra Super light set. ;-)

    Sounds like TGWIF will be having some good times awaiting - congrats!!!! D'Addario makes some good product.

    BEEFY!

    I use 12s or 13s when I tune down to C, but I don't think i've ever even SEEN those baritone sets.

    Easy guys...I'd NEVER suggest putting these on a standard guitar...14-68 is a big set of strings!

    However...for this they should be fun!

    Wouldn't tuning down to say B standard or drop A be alright though?

    I think if you use those for drop tuning, you'd have to rename the tuning "drop tonnage". :-P

    The Low E probably would not fit on a stock tuner, depending on what you have.

    Remember you got the Bari, TGWIF... Looks like a really nice ride.

    I dunno...I guess.

    They were designed for B to B on a 29.75 inch scale Bari so I'd imagine they'd be fairly safe but trust me, after looking at the 68 you'll have to tweak the nut!

    when i see those string sizes, i think of a gorillas hand wrapped around a manly sized guitar neck. The only baritone I have seen was tuned to drop A, sure as hell wanna get one soon.

    Wounded hands, thick strings, and tweaked nuts. This thread screams of dominatrix.
