    7 String 'Custom T' Baritone

    I like a 'fuller' body - more input resonance, more area to respond to player / amp. :icon_thumright: This is a perfect shape - better than an 'Original' Telecaster Bass I once had. Wondering if they can do the lightening or 'chambering' to the 'Custom T' and fit that 7 string Baritone neck...
