There he was named a Master Builder in 1995 and worked on Robben Ford's signature models. He laid out the B1 design during his Fender years and launched Baker Guitars USA to build it under his own name. The original Baker shop ran from 1999 to early 2003, so this guitar comes from the company's first era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe mahogany set neck has a '59 C carve (.825\" at the 1st fret, .925\" at the 12th) and a gloss nitro finish. The cream-bound rosewood fretboard has mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays, a 12\" radius, and 22 medium jumbo frets on a 24.75\" scale. Nut width is 1 11\/16\", with a nylon nut. Hardware includes a Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge, a stopbar tailpiece, and Grover Rotomatic tuners in nickel and chrome. The gloss black headstock carries a gold sparkle \"Baker USA\" decal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA pair of DiMarzio humbuckers runs through two volumes, two tones, and a 3-way toggle, the classic layout for blending pickups and shaping tone right from the guitar.
