Acoustic-Electric Bajo Sexto, "Bajo sexto" meaning "lower sixth" in Spanish, refers to how this unique and beautiful guitar contributes a strong, rhythmic lower end to a guitar ensemble. The low voicing of this 12-string guitar from Oscar Schmidt allows for strong projection of chord changes across songs. Tuning for the 12-string bajo sexto is octave E, A, D unison g, d, f. Note that tuning is the similar to a regular 12-string with the primary difference being the top two pitches. In the bajo sexto, what would be high E on a regular 12-string becomes F and what would be B becomes D. The bajo sexto is used primarily in the norteño music of northeastern Mexico and across the border in the music of south Texas known as "Tex-Mex" or "conjunto". Type: Band and Orchestra
