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 award-winning Mendocino Baritone.

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 has a slightly chunky, late-50's Gibson-esq carve with a slinky overall feel - and most importantly, it 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. These guitars remind us of a Jerry Jones or vintage Danelectro baritone, but with a slightly more open/chimey tone, and vastly improved playability. With some gain? Classic low-fi, deep bass swampiness that's incredibly fun and inspiring.
