Can i use these on a non baritone guitar but tuned to drop B/A

Hi, I used them on a standard scale telecaster, they're heavier gauge than the other brands, I tuned down to A and B, twangy but does the job, its cheaper than buying a baritone neck or guitar, you will have to file the nut to get the strings to sit properly though, it's a while since I had them though, hope this is helpful in some way..., 👍

How long are these? I am hoping to use them on a bass vi and tune it b-b

Long enough to fit on my Jazzmaster baritone (30”) should be fine for your bass vi

These were not long enough for my Gretsch Bari with Bigsby trem, can you recommend what strings would suit?

Just search for 'long scale' strings? If they don't actually state the length of the strings, these should be enough for 99.9% of instruments.
