No problems at all with it. I'm just trying to work out what the controls are set up as. I have an existing Orion guitar and the controls are bass and treble with a centre indent so boost and cut. This Baritone does not have a centre indent on bass or treble, so does this mean that it is all boost from low to high?

But I guess I will have more time soon to get used to it. I do like the meaty sound of the guitar and hope to use it for playing blues more than anything else. I'll let you know when I get more used to it. It is i think more of a specialist sounding guitar and probably not an all purpose guitar like my regular electrics. But I time will tell. Thanks anyway, I'm still happy with the guitar. Jazzyvee
