In brief
- 64.8 cm baritone scale: stable tension & clear lows
- Custom HH DiMarzio: powerful and clear
- Basswood body + figured maple top
- String-through body bridge (stainless steel saddles)
- Schaller M6-IND tuners + easily adjustable truss rod
Ideal if you play in drop tunings / low tunings and want to keep a clean low end with palm-muting.
Why a baritone changes everything
The longer scale length adds tension: the lows remain stable and intonation holds better when dropping the tuning.
Modern, versatile sound
Custom DiMarzio humbuckers maintain clarity with distortion and remain usable with crunch / clean tones with proper gain settings.
Stability & easy adjustments
Schaller tuners + accessible truss rod: perfect if you change string gauge, tuning, or travel frequently.
"Starry Night" details & finishes
Top & electronics: clean, effective look.
Back view: glossy and clean finish.
BFR details: premium finishes.
Who is it for / what sound?
- Modern rock / alternative: deep lows, massive riffs, open chords.
- Baritone blues / jazz: sustain and depth, especially in neck positions.
- Studio: perfect for doubling a standard guitar and filling the low end of the mix.
- Stage: tuning stability and consistency with IR / modeling presets.

3 quick adjustments to enjoy the baritone
- String gauge: for low tunings, aim for a heavier gauge (and re-intonate).
- EQ: cut a little below 70–90 Hz if it gets too "boomy" in the mix.
- Gain: slightly lower the gain and let the scale length do the "heavy lifting" in the low end.
