Baritone Crowdster

[teleplucker]

Here's a question for Tom.
Could you build a baritone Crowdster Plus? I have owned a SCGC Bob Brozman and I currently own a McCollum Baritone. Both of these guitars are awesome instruments. I usually tune 2 or 3 halfsteps down, I know that's higher than the tradional baritone tuning but it works well for me, it allows me to sing a lot of songs in a more comfortable range. Of course you can't use real baritone string gauges, regular medium works well. I think the scale on the McCollum is 28" and the Bob was 27.5. What do you think?

i also have a mccollum bari, very nice. the baritone market is so small that it's really hard to justify making them. most people see it as an alternative instrument, and don't want to pay what it's worth to have a nice one. we're just now doing our last run of 6 baritom's for a while. there are assorted little nagging problems with the hardware available for baritones, so that further distances me from them. i don't see a crowdster baritone happening any time soon, but it would be a fun guitar.
