Frequently asked questions
What's the scale difference and how does it affect playability?
The Sixx uses a 34" scale while the Baron-H has a 35" scale. The longer scale on the Baron-H provides slightly tighter string tension, faster fret spacing, and enhanced low-end definition; the Sixx's shorter scale offers slightly easier reach and a warmer low-end response.
How do the pickup configurations differ tonally?
The Sixx's dual EMG setup (LJX/PX) delivers balanced, articulate output across the frequency spectrum with extended dynamic range. The Baron-H's single Seymour Duncan Pro Active is voiced specifically for punchy mids and aggressive growl, optimized for modern rock and metal genres.
Which construction approach sustains longer?
The Sixx's neck-thru mahogany design provides superior sustain and tonal coherence by eliminating the joint between neck and body. The Baron-H's bolt-on maple neck is more resonant in the midrange but trades some sustain for attack and clarity.
Are both suitable for left-handed players?
Yes, both models are specifically designed for left-handed players with mirrored body contours, hardware placement, and control layouts appropriate for lefty orientation.
