My Odessa Guitars Deadbeat Baritone build...and Degenerate?

It's been a while since my last blog post about my Odessa, and there is a little reason as to why that is and I'll get to that later in the post, but for now accept my apologies if you were following since the original build update article! We left off at the finishing stage, where the neck and body were undergoing numerous coats of Livos natural oil, looking rather nice it was too.

Friendships - The real 'USP' of handmade, custom instruments? - My Odessa Deadbeat Baritone build

Lusting after the 'next' guitar rarely stops for many of us. The idea of a baritone has stuck with me for quite some time, and being without a main electric whilst I await my own Millimetric MGS3 to be built next year has had the cogs turning on the idea more than ever. My mind wandered to a Jazzmaster based parts build, 3 pickups, perhaps an extra one behind the bridge for weird sounds, a walnut long scale neck and although this notion was undeniably exciting, I couldn't help but think about supporting a luthier brand over doing a parts build which in some cases can soon see costs creep up to a similar mark.
