So I took some $ Store sanding sponges to the neck today and finally killed that damn gloss that only Ferrari drivers seem to love... Sooo many good feels with the bare wood now!!!

Hello Music had these on the cheapz a few weeks ago...I had one in my cart and then yanked it when I read a few reviews with complaints peep couldn't get the low string to intonate properly b/c of bridge positioning but BUH I WANT ONE NOW :mad:

The tuners still blow. And the saddles slowly change position. Need new saddles and tuners.

Tuners ok for me but those shitty fold a rolled piece of crap I wanna change... As bad and cheap as the saddles look they haven't messed up yet but they just irk me with their bold wacknesss... I want some of those graphite lookin saddles they used to put on late 90's Strats... Also where can we buy new parts that are Telebari specific cause I LOVE IT and can maybe get another and would like to upgrade most of the thin metal jank that came on it but I want that grey or worn black type hardware... :joy:

Nice! Love me some 27" scale, even in standard tuning. I'm occasionally tempted by one of these, but after playing an 8-string for a couple of years, I can't really grok a 6 any more.

There are no bari-specific parts as far as I know, baritone guitars use the same hardware as your ordinary 25.5" planks. I have a set of GFS stainless steel saddles on my Tele bari and I couldn't be happier with them.

Cool thanks, I wasn't sure if the bridge spacing was weird or anything... I think some gunmetal parts on my Silver Telebari would RULEZZZ...
