Fender's got a new MIJ baritone Jaguar. I really want one but I've already got a great copperburst Dano. Those lipstick p-ups are noisy, but real twangy. They're meant to be tuned B to B (standard but 5 notes lower) and the stock strings are .68, .56, .44, .26, .18, .14.

D'Addario makes a heavier gauge of bari strings that work well tuned down to A, or even a full octave down to E, but you would have to adjust the Dano's truss rod to compensate for the extra tension from the thicker strings.
