Dear Victor, this guitar is great! I always think about the tummy cut on yours and why it is missing on Forshage's and Klein's (headless) models. I only can think of your design comes with a thick body, whilest the other 2 luthiers' guitars are thin (only 4-5 cm deep). I honestly prefer your design for more acousticish sound and easier carrying (not bulky).
Cool Victor good music and good sound !!!!!
Sounds really good. Lovely playing.
Thanks so much!! Glad ya dig the music!
Came here for the guitar, stayed for the music.
Thanks for listenin' I appreciate!!!
Amazing sound and wag at a beauty! I’ve wanted to tell you, for some time, how much I like you playing and compositions. Although I’ve never gotten into effects I really dig the vibe. (At the ripe old age of 61 I would like to explore those sounds but the lack of gigging opportunity where I live and cost prevent necromancy doing so
Aw man thanks for saying so! I appreciate the nice words 🙂🙂🙂
@@victorbaker7957 okay, I am now sincerely hoping that you do indeed understand my typing mistakes! I do want to be clear that I have no interest in necromancy!!!!🥺
@@victorbaker7957 best wishes for a Merry Christmas !
Fabulous presentation in every way, wishing you every success in your endeavor's. Thanks for posting the video and music.
Thankyou!!!
Gorgeous instrument and magical sound... Just wow!!
Thanks so much! Glad ya like!
Black hardware looks amazing always but on that thing ... very attractive.
What kind of frets were Victor Baker used?stainless ?
im really glad i stumbled onto this. your sound and ideas are really great
thanks SO much, I'm glad ya dig the music!!!
Victor, I need a guitar that sounds like this or your model 13 but is as resistant to feedback as a 335. If you can do that I will buy it when I retire in 2 years. Terrific composing.
so nice wow that finish is awesome /i wonder what strings gauge you put on
Could you tell me the overall length of the guitar ? Amazing guitar
I just acquired a Victor Baker 2006! It is as wonderful an instrument as my Jimmy D’Aquisto 1972 New Yorker. That’s saying a lot!
i’ve been playing this song every day for the last 10 months and on every guitar i played ,this song got such a tone too it that is so hard too replicate, i absolutely love this song
Man.... thankyou D Mac! I'm glad you like the music! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Victor did you study guitar or have teachers ,etc. You are such an excellent player.
Beautiful guitar...are you still building these? And what pickups did you use on that build? It looks like a Kent Armstrong...nice playing as well.
wow, nice guitar! how are those pickups mounted to the body?
neck is floating one, and what about bridge?
Yo do you have a chart of this by any chance? I really dig your composition.
thanks for asking man! Sure, here ya go drive.google.com/file/d/0B92IMctzr3poVlpzVjN6TE9MeTA/view?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-kgI-PI93Vk_Ezdsj3tANrQ

thanks so much!
@@victorbaker7957 Hi again Victor, do you have this album on Spotify? this is awesome!. Please let me know. Thank you!!😀
really great sound
Thankyou!!
Hello Victor,would you give me some tips for doing that kind of "antique" violin finish? I'm starting to build my first archtop and i'm trying to find information about this style of finish, but even though is popular i haven't found much information abour the process. What causes that color variation? Do you select some areas and add a darker/more concentrated stain there? Or is it done by sanding after applying the stains, and the color variation is "random"?
sorry for the delay, just seeing this now. Email me through my website, i'll try and help!
This guitar sounds and looks amazing. I meant, you sound great, she looks good :) Glad I stumbled upon that video.
Thanks so much Francois!!
Put out an album Victor..
thankyou!!!
May I ask which strings do you use in that video? Thanks in advance - Axel
Sorry, just seeing this now... I use garden variety daddario :-)
Wow! Wonderful guitar, great sound great playing guys!. Cheers.
thankyou fingerboard!
This is genuinely beautiful
superb in every way
Reminds me to Snoopy... . Beautiful music, sound and work...
Beautiful
Mr. Baker do you make this guitar in a left hand and how much would it be?
Victor!!!!!!! Just found this!!!! How are you my friend!!!!!???? It's been too long!!!!!!
Matt!! So sorry i didnt see this! Great to hear from you... crazy days but I am doing well :-)
Love the"cello" finish. Wonder how it would sound with a floating pup and controls on a raised pickguard? I'm a big fan of the ebony tailpiece and the Manzer(ish) armrest.
Hi Dooley thanks! I'm not a huge fan of the floating pickups, but if you like the smaller more acoustic type sound (maybe for a purely solo guitar use) I can do it!
Wow , is there one available to buy? Awesome guitar.
Hey Victor, wonderful building and nice warm tone! And I have thoughts to order one archtop 15" model. I e-mailed you but got no replied yet...
One of the best sounding guitars I've heard... amazing
really cool
Sweet, just wondering, where are the controls for the rmc system?
Hmmm its been a while but i think the controls were 2 of the 4 knobs.
here's an idea Victor,, get the timber down to the right thickness , & then sandblast a bit more, the harder grain will be outstanding , ribbed , & the softer timber removed, the vibrations allowed to travel along the grain with less mass to move.. cheer Jules
interesting idea! That would have a funky look but maybe look cool...
build your own great guitar &play great music on it,, Allll right,, I like this
Thankyou man!!! Glad you enjoyed the video :-)
