This is a discussion thread for the Daily Spanish Word (http://daily.tomisimo.org/) for December 16, 2008

bajo - masculine noun (el) - bass guitar, low. Look up bajo in the dictionary (http://www.tomisimo.org/dictionary/spanish_english/bajo)

Voy a comprarme un bajo de cinco cuerdas para aprender a tocar.
I'm going to buy myself a five-string bass to learn how to play.

this is definitely different from bajo as in short?

When used as an adjective, the word means short. The meaning given was for the noun.
