Very cool looking and hopefully sounding guitar.
I have gone shopping for baritones but have always shied away from purchasing. I tried a six string Taylor prototype of their baritone in a shop. I tried a number Alvarez's reasonably decent baritones that were up on CL.
As a kid, I could never sing. I could not carry a tune to save my life. So in bands, I always got paid less. Sometimes this was rectified by pointing out that I had the only vehicle capable of getting the gear to gigs. Sometimes not.
I was discussing this one day with my piano tutor who also taught voice. She got me to start exploring. The problem was that I am a bass/baritone naturally. Pretty much all pop/rock songs were way out of my register. No notes there. Can't sing. Beatles songs were way way out of register. I can sing there now with help from my tutor, but it is definitely not my home. And I would get tired singing there for any length of time.
I thought that a baritone would help. Just drop everything down a forth and it's into a range that I can do more comfortably. But I was wrong. In standard tuning, pretty much all intervals lower than a 5th sound like mud until you get 4th or 5th position by which place you are playing in a standard guitar range. So if you want to just transpose fingering over from a standard E to E guitar it really doesn't work. You need to rearrange everything with different chord voicings.
Open tunings with modal stuff was just awesome, however. And I mean like mind blowingly totally awesome!
I also tried Taylor's eight string baritone model, B and E in octave courses - it was interesting. The octave stringing of the two bass strings cuts through some of the harmonic mud in lower intervals in lower positions with standard tuning. But ... $$$$$$$ for that guitar, at least for the one I tried in a shop.
