Why haven't you bought a baritone yet?

(If you have one, just sort of ignore the thread title).

If you missed out on the Gibson LP Studio Baritone, you will probably have to wait about 16 years for it to return. In the meantime, there are some very cool baritones out there. If you own one, let us know how it sounds and plays.

Here's a song that I wrote and recorded that features three baritone parts using a Marshall handwired 18 watter and a DSL combo for the two dirty parts. I normally have it tuned down to B, but this song might be in B#--I can't remember. I posted this last summer, but I've reworked the drums/mix/mastering.

And, of course, the obligatory photos.

Of the 12 songs on the album that I recorded last year, the baritone appears on 5 of them. Robb Flynn uses a baritone on pretty much everything Machine Head does these days.
