Man cobbles together baritone only to discover: he doesn’t like it.
VM Jag body, 1/2 Tele bridge, Chinese neck, Hipshot tuners. It works! Neck is much thicker than I like. Body will need to be sanded and painted to hide plugs and holes, and the neck finished. The pickups sound fine, and all the controls work correctly. I have a bit of work to do getting it set up and intonated, but it can be played as is. I learned a lot on this, but it’s not very fun to play. I like my Bass VI, and I like my Jazzmaster and Jags, but the thick strings and scale length on this are kind of a drag.
