Fender / Jaguar Baritone Special HH / 2007 / Black / Guitar
|
Picked this one up in Liverpool’s only decent indie guitar shop. The rest are just box pushers. From a very hairy friend of mine working in there.
This is a 27 inch scale baritone guitar. I’m sticking it in the bass section for the laugh. It’s halfway in between a bass and a guitar. The concept was originally designed by our friend Nate Daniel when he released the first electric baritone, 6 string bass, in 1958. The 1373 had a a short run of a year and a half before being replaced by the 1444 (like the one in store).
Nashville went crazy for the baritone, that tic-tac Johnny Cash signature sound and Fender caught on quick and adopted the concept and released the now legendary Bass VI – an octave down – with a 30 inch scale.
The Bass VI was played by many of the greats including Jack Bruce, John Entwistle, Rick Danko, Noel Redding, John Frusciante and many more. Peter Green used the Bass VI during live performances of the Green Manalishi and the can aslo be seen in the videos and heard in the recordings of The Beatles Hey Jude, Let it Be and the Long Windy Road.
It was played by Harrison or Lennon when Macca played piano or guitar in many recordings and specifically my favourite Beatles tune Helter Skelter.
The Baritone Special is born of this guitar, a baby brother, a distant relative but it still has that deep down and dirty geneology in its soul.
Its a Double Dragster humbucker setup, with a Gibson-esque Tune-O-Matic vintage style adjusto-matic bridge and vintage style tuners. Was only available as a Black Top with full chrome knobs and control cover. Ace.

We Are You…
We are passionate about writing playing and recording great music. We love the processes and tools used in the past and the present to produce great music. We feel that all music is recapitulation and a reinterpretation of what has gone before, that the only thing that changes is the perspective of the creators and the knowledge that a good tool will always hold its value and can enable someone to paint a picture relative and fresh in its time .
We Want To…
Offer budding or experienced musicians and producers killer vintage guitars and basses to start with and in the mean time great we will be hunting down and finding vintage amps, synths, effects and recording gear. We want to import quality kit mainly from the US and Europe for re-sale in Ireland, the UK and Mainland Europe.
I’m really into vintage American, European and Japanese copies of the big brands and that’s what I will be mostly stocking instore. We will have the odd Fender, Gibson or Greatch but we will mainly be searching for Silvertones, Kay’s, Harmony’s, Danelectro, Teisco’s, Kents, and all sorts of little manufacturers from the golden age of guitar building.
It’s the sound of these things. They sound different. They’ve got bags of character, style and a sound that – to me – is unsurpassable. These git’s don’t sound like a Strat or a Les Paul. They don’t sound like everything else. They have their own thing going on. You then also don’t sound like everyone else when you use them and that gives you an edge.
Jimi Hendrix’s first guitar was a Silvertone DC2. Jimmy Page used a Twin Twelve in the studio. Clapton recorded with Danos and Silvertones. These guitars and amps and the recording gear they went through, create that sound we love, and can’t be recreated in a piece of software.
It’s all about the look, the attitude and most importantly “The Sound!” And they have all that and bags of it. Once you have heard the stuff you won’t go back.
