Fender BG-29 No. 2

I made this baritone out of a beautiful 2004 Fender BG-29 that is starting to age nicely. If you have smaller hands or are a little intimidated by some of my larger guitars, this may be the one for you. It has a very easy to play 30 inch scale and sounds best tuned B – B though if you are not going to strum it hard it can be tuned A – A. It has a very nice mother of pearl logo on the headstock and very few signs of wear. There is one small scrape on the heel of the neck that I have smoothed out.. I finished it with gold tuners and a sound port. I am selling it on eBay without a case for $525. I do have a used hard case available domestically for an additional $75. Sold - Thanks Daniele!

  1. Hi Terry,
    I would like to thank you, the guitar is awesome!!
    The sound is warm and deep and it's a pleasure to play!
    Great action, soft and comfortable, no buzz at all and the sound port lets you hear much better the low frequencies and the volume overall.
    Great work also in placing the piezo as the sound is perfectly balanced along the strings!!
    The size fits my hands, I am really happy!!!
    Thank you!!!

    Daniele
