2x18 Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Other options are Burns Barracuda OLP MM5 Danelectro Baritone Eastwood Sidejack Baritone There are also Baritones made by Yamaha ( Deep 6 ) Gretsch and Ibanez. I am in the process of building one from a Danelectro neck, that I have ordered from Allparts, which should fit a on Fender body. Regards ----- Will.
