In playing, the left hand holds the strings against frets on a fingerboard, while the right hand plucks or strums the strings. Wh played in older styles of music where the instrumt assumes the role of a bass, the strings are usually plucked with the fingers. In modern chordal and melodic styles, a pick is frequtly used.
The history of the bajo sexto is somewhat unclear. There are few writt sources, and until very rectly most music dictionaries and cyclopedias did not mtion the instrumt. A few contemporary researchers have be working from oral sources—living players and luthiers—to trace the background of the instrumt.
They descd from the Spanish bandurrias and lutes that used double strings and were also tuned in fifths, perhaps to complete the harmonies in sembles that required an instrumt capable of giving the low notes of the harmonization of a melody. .

In the 17th and 18th cturies, Mexican artisans built several types of instrumts with double strings in three, four, five, six, sev and eight courses, influced by their Spanish ancestors. Descdants of these instrumts are bandolón, guitarra séptima, quinta huapanguera, jarana jarocha, concheras, and guitarra chamula, among others.
The manufacture of bajo quinto and sexto reached a peak in quality and popularity in the 19th ctury in ctral and southern Mexico, in the states of Guerrero, Michoacán, Morelos, Puebla, Oaxaca, and Tlaxcala.
Near the d of the 19th ctury the bajo sexto began to migrate northwards, where it became a popular instrumt for weddings and dances such as the bailes de regalos (popular betwe 1870 and 1930). In these settings, it was usually played along with a set of small tom-tom drums.

The 1930s saw the rise of conjunto music and the instrumts of choice for this developing style were accordion and bajo sexto.
At this time the bajo sexto functioned primarily as a bass instrumt, providing a strong rhythmic foundation supporting the solo accordion. In the late 1940s, string bass (and later, electric bass) was added to the instrumts, and in the 1950s, drums, completing the modern conjunto semble. The inclusion of bass and drums freed the bajo sexto from exclusively rhythmic bass duties, and bajo players began experimting with chords, counter rhythms, and melodic lines.
As the popularity of conjunto spread northward, the bajo sexto wt with it, and the instrumt was tak up by musicians in Northern Mexico and Texas to play other forms of music: norteño music of Northern Mexico and across the border in the music of South Texas known as Tejano (or Tex-Mex), conjunto, or música mexicana-tejana.

The bajo sexto is a member of the guitar family, and physically looks like a cross betwe a 12-string guitar and a cello because of its size. However, there are important differces: The body is usually a bit deeper; the neck is shorter, joining the body at the 12th fret (modern 12-string guitars usually join at the 14th fret); and (being a bass instrumt) the strings are thicker. Older instrumts tded to have a larger body; modern instrumts are more guitar-like, and the body is typically not more than an inch or so deeper than the guitar. Modern instrumts frequtly have a cutaway in the upper bout of the body adjact to the neck, allowing easier access to higher playing positions on the neck, for the left hand.
Since the instrumt is tuned an octave below the guitar, the body on some instrumts is not large ough for the lowest E to resonate well, and many players remove the sixth course, playing on only 10 strings (five courses). Luthiers evtually picked up on this practice and began leaving off the low E course during construction, producing instrumts with only five courses — bajo quintos.
Bajo sextos are traditionally tuned in fourths, what a guitarist would call all fourths tuning. The lower three courses are doubled at the higher octave (similar to the lower four courses on a 12-string guitar), and the upper three courses are doubled at the unison:
