The results are spectacular! Like the 6-string Mendocino, the Baritone model is incredibly lightweight, balanced, and very alive and resonant. It's beautifully made - and finished in a sharp Matte Black - has a slightly chunky, late-50's Gibson-esq carve with a slinky overall feel, and sounds amazing.

Speaking of tones, the Lollar Goldfoils are a perfect match for this guitar. Open, airy, killer chime...clean tones are a no-brainer. Plugged into a Victoria Silver Sonic, there's both an articulation and fatness to the tone that reminds us of a Jerry Jones or vintage Danelectro baritone, but with a slightly more open/chimey tone. With some gain? Classic low-fi, deep bass swampiness that's incredibly fun and inspiring.

If you're looking for something new that's both beautiful, alive, a blast to play - and - made by a luthier with an eye towards sustainability? You need to check out the inspiring Mendocino Baritone.

Condition: Excellent. Very little signs of prior ownership.
