Bass VI is different from a baritone or a six-string bass. I'm probably missing a few differences with this explanation, but basically:Baritone = essentially a guitar with thicker strings in BEADF#B tuning.
Bass VI = Short-scale bass (30" neck) tuned one octave lower than guitar EADGBE
Six String Bass = standard- or longer-scale bass tuned BEADGC, with both an lower and a higher string

Makes perfect sense. I've played guitar for 30 years and I've never heard of these.
