That song was about the best I've heard here. I have no experience with the baritone, so with that in mind here is a question. Do the same guitar chord shapes work on the baritone, or do they have to be shifted up a string? Hope that makes sense.

The tuning of the baritone is the same pattern as a guitar but all strings are tuned 5 frets lower in pitch than a guitar.

Instead of EADGBE
It is BEADF#B

All of the same chord shapes still work but they have different names now.

A standard E major chord shape becomes a B chord on a Baritone.

It makes for a lot of transposing in your head on the fly when playing along with someone.

.....and thanks for the kind words but I know they're not really merited. The truth is my friend and I threw it together in my living room in about 45 minutes or an hour or so from start to finish .... while drinking. If you keep looking long enough you will find some good stuff here.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

I've done a bit of recording (mostly Pro Tools and Mixcraft 7 and before the computer reel to reel), It's easy to spot talent, even on quick recordings. I'm not blowing smoke , its no masterpiece, but it has a quality that demonstrates your abilities. I would like to hear something you spent some time on.
