2018 LsL Instruments Baribone Adam Christianson Signature - Black Satin | USA Custom Bariton Telecaster | OHSC

I offer here a 2018 LsL Instruments Baribone, a premium baritone Telecaster model handmade in Santa Clarita, California (USA) from the custom guitar forge of Lance Lerman with solid alder body including arm bevel (!), spectacularly figured Roasted Flame Maple neck with slim D-neck profile and Quick Access heel, classy Rosewood fingerboard with Clay Dot inlays, extended 698.5mm scale length, two handwound LsL Instruments PAF humbuckers, D'Addario locking tuners and Hipshot hardtail bridge in a beautiful Black Satin Nitrocellulose finish with shining Nickel hardware in excellent condition incl. G&G luxury case, manufacturer papers and professional setup with 13 gauge Ernie Ball strings.

Under the LsL Instruments label, Lance Lerman has been hand-building outstanding custom guitars since 2008, and they are so good that within a decade they have won over numerous big guitarist names - today LsL guitars have gone from being an insider's tip to some of the most popular premium US guitars. Lance Lerman combines the best in hardware and woods with a hand-built approach to guitar making that takes great care of detail, creating instruments that rival many a US custom shop model in looks, sound and playing technique. Real American Masterbuilt Guitars!

And this particular Baribone Baritone Telecaster is no exception: it comes in a great Black Satin Nitro finish and impressively grained neck of roasted flame maple in a modern Telecaster appearance with generous contours for arm and belly, exuding a character all its own right from the first glance. Thanks to the slim hand-carved D-shaped neck profile, the guitar is effortless to play and the neck-body transition, lowered thanks to the Quick Access heel, allows effortless access to the highest of the 22 medium jumbo frets on the rosewood fingerboard.

Due to the solid alder body the instrument resonates audibly from the first note already acoustically unbelievable and at the latest when you plug them in, you need a moment to collect yourself from the sheer load of deep-toned hot baritone sounds. This is ensured by two PAF humbucker pickups of the highest class, hand-wound by LsL itself, which elicit from the guitar not only a brilliant-clear clean tone, but also hefty-bellied gain sounds with excellent sustain, but without losing articulation and dynamics. The guitar is thus extremely versatile in terms of sound and satisfies both metal enthusiasts and experimental jazz ambitions (!) outstandingly. The simple electronics with 3-way switch and only one vol. knob also ensures an immediately intuitive usability.

A high-gain sound sample with Adam Christianson (Architects) can be found above at the end of the photo gallery.

But please also check out the clean sound samples on YouTube!

At LsL - typically handmade - every guitar is different and gets a girl's name instead of a serial number; this beauty was christened "Onyx".

In short, this custom Telecaster sounds, plays and feels like a luxury baritone guitar!
