Hohner Hollywood Custom Baritone IV

Up for sale is a Hohner Hollywood Custom Baritone guitar .

This is a Custom Model that dates to the mid 90s and quite soughtafter .

Unusually it can be strung as either a baritone guitar ( G ) or VI Fender Bass or even a standard guitar but has a standard guitar scale ( 25.5 ) .

Quality hardware used throughout including Wilkinson Bridge - Alan Entwistle pickups.

The guitar has some light marks from normal use and some scuff marks around the base but nothing strutual . The decal show some wear but a replacement is included .

a baritone with a 25.5" scale? No.

As a guitar, I would want a JM style vibrato and dual pickups.

I agree - I'd prefer at least a 27" scale for it to be a baritone guitar.

Pass...

Setting aside the baritone/scale issue, I like it. I would take it for a spin in a store, but if I was looking for a JM, then I would buy a Fender JM.

I'd pick it up if I saw it lying around.

Now I miss my Bass VI. Damn it!

Those pickups sound dull, I owned a set.

That’s just not a baritone guitar. It doesn’t even have heavy strings. I looked at the seller’s other auctions and there are glaring errors in some other descriptions, so somebody over there is either crazy or just copy/pasting from old listings and not proofreading.

The bridge pickup needs to be crooked

 

[Stratguy]

No way.

 

[Hubert Stumblin]

a baritone with a 25.5" scale? No.

That's what I'm thinking. How can it be a bari at that scale? It ain't.

I love the colors and body shape -- nice iteration of the style.
