I'm rather fine with the classic shape, 27 3/4" scale, even the not-so-attractive $1400 price tag.
However, with that much tension added to the potential for disaster, I have a greater fear of the future.

What an interesting post!?
Body looks too small, finish is nasty, and I bet its heavy!

I'm not too hot about the matte either, but I've seen worse.
It's fairly obvious what may be going on: The baritone started with the template from an $850 Les Paul Studio '50s Tribute...and was given an erection a long neck.

hmm looks strange.
What scale length is the buckethead les paul? Not as long as the baritone I'm guessing, but its longer than the standard gibson scale.
