Please Warmoth, consider offering baritone conversion necks in profiles with some... substance.
After playing around with much heavier strings than I normally do - playing 13's for a week or two. I'm finding 12-52 to be floppy on the bottom, but 13-56 to start getting thunky - at least on Gibson scale... But the experiment has me more seriously considering moving on a 28.625" neck strung 11 - 56 w/ a wound third, tuned in fourths D-Eb.
But the neck profile is a show stopper. I'm loving my fatback, and I'm not crazy about tuning standard thin both heavier AND higher than normal. The truss rod still has plenty of adjustment, so tha'ts probably unfounded worry, but still...
