Picked this guitar as a fan of Loathe, Thornhill, and other bands, who use baritones in tunings like Double Drop D and similar.
Overall, it makes all of the sounds that I would like it to make.
I am a primarily a guitar player, who occasionally plays bass.
With this thing , I can record a "guitar" sound on a bridge pickup, and a "Bass" sound on a combination of 3. Which exactly depends on the context of the song.
In regards to quality - the neck is fabulous, no complaints on finish quality. I know that Antigua finish on Jazzmaster baritone's pickguard peels off quite easily. Unlike that Jazzmaster, the finish on the pickguard is way more durable.
I would rate quality 5 out of 5, but I found a ground wire was broken off on the pickup switch panel. In the schematic I can see that it is mostly redundant, because everything is grounded in multiple points, but still.
Also, the setup was OK-is, strings were too high, and needed some intonation adjustments. Also, trem arm makes a lot of creaking noises, when you push or pull on it, but i don't use it anyway.
Overall very pleased with the purchase.
Great instrument.
