30 to 40 inch scale 6 string guitar

I’m looking to tune down to Between double drop E and Triple drop C on a 6 string. To have any kind of tension at all I need over 30 inches of scale length as a Squier Vintage modified baritone jazzmaster can only realistically get down to double drop C and I want up to an octave lower than that. What brands sell/could make custom a six string guitar designed with a scale length of 32-60 inches designed to be tuned between 1 and 4 octaves down. Thank you- Juniper

Oh that makes total sense. I think I’m gonna go with the VH4 and just crank Bass, Prescene and depth, run it through a very bassy cabinet (the Emporer), and then use a 6 or 10 band eq and boost the frick out of the 10-50hz range and then maybe a bass boost like the Dod Meatbox maxed out and then like a Mountainking Megalith on more heavy setting with bass maxed out. That’s my plan. I think it’ll work.

I'm probably gonna be using an Emperor cabinets 4x12 or 8x10 for maximum bass, their used by the guitarist from sleep and the guitarist from russian circles so i trust them. I'm debating between the Verellen Meatsmoke and Diezel Vh4 I think are my top two choices. As a doom metal guitarist, a 300 watt amp that's voiced for bass is an awesome proposition, but the vh4 has so much flexibility and the depth and presence maxed is the best sound ever made. So any one with experience in both have any recommendation?

Thanks dude. I'm not super worried about price as long as it's under 5k which includes most amps. And i need at least 100 watts. what are good bassy, deep, and present amps that fit that description. I really like the general tone of the Diezel VH4 but I need the depth and presence to be cranked. It's a good amp on any setting but for my personal preference it's basically best on max bass, max presence and max depth. i just wish the tone stack on those knobs could go a bit farther than they already do.

Hi all, I'm relatively new here. My name is Juniper and I'm looking to get established in the metal scene. So I'm looking for an amp: 100-500 watts. I really really like dark amps. For me any amp is only usable with the sub-bass, bass, low-mids, depth and presence cranked and even then it's not enough often. Some amps i'm considering are the Bogner Uberschall, Diezel Vh4, Verellen Meatsmoke, Sunn model T, Sovtek Mig-100, Fender 5e3 Tweed, and Ampeg Vt-40. Basically I want to know which is the most extremely dark, extremely bassy and extremely present. I'm looking for like a Funeralopolis, Dopesmoker, Mt abraxas, Green Machine, Mexicola type tone, but slightly more gated and controlled in it's sustain. I know a lot of that is pedals and i have an Acapulco gold, Ds-1, Fuzz factory, and sound wave breakdown for that but I still need an uber-dark clean tone anyways. FYI i'm using a HSS Squier II MIK strat, and a Les paul gold top 50's special 2016. So you can get an idea of the base guitar tone, tho i will be swapping out the base pickups for Bare knuckle silencer for the single coil, and warpigs for the humbcukers. The les paul is tuned between E standard and Drop C depending on mood with 10-60 and the Strat is tuned depending on mood to C standard to A standard with 12-80. i use 3mm picks too. I'm also probably gonna get a vintage modified baritone jazzmaster and tune it to Drop E or as low as Double Drop A. Given this info do you have any recs for me? Also sorry i messed up the thread formatting, I'm new to markdown.
