Baritone 1 vs Baritone 2H
While both models share the same body dimensions, key differences are outlined below.
- Our 1-style Baritone features Honduran mahogany back and sides with tortoise body binding and butt wedge, b/w/b/w top purfling, a walnut backstrip, dot fingerboard inlays, and a simpler 1-style rosette.
- Our 2-style (2H) Baritone features East Indian rosewood back and sides with ivoroid body binding and butt wedge, herringbone top purfling, a “zipper” backstrip, diamonds and squares fingerboard inlays, and a more intricate 2-style rosette.
