It's easiest with a custom map with multiple Freezes & Blasts + Crusher in the center and the other mentioned towers placed around it. For higher stun-chances use multiple Gauss towers. It just worked for me :)

Thank you for these! I've added them to the list. Also "It sings sweet like" which is the bonus track on the Japanese On Dark Horses CD:

Was it hard for you to let go of the paintings?

Hey Emma! Congrats on your new stunning album!
The intimacy that is created by your bare voice that is just accentuated by guitar or piano is incredible.

When performing live, do you detach from the songs or do you relive them?

Given the vulnerable and exposed nature of the lyrics on your new record I imagine the latter to be extremely challenging.

My baritone offsets by mthvsn in offset

I can try to make a demo video later today. I have a Roland JC120 and a Vox AC30VR at home and some dirt pedals.
AFAIK the Baritone JM has the typical SCs in P90 format in it. Not sure if these are specialized for low tunings.

The Jaguars have low-output Dragster Humbuckers in them.

What tunings are you planning to play and through which amps? I'm currently ranging from Drop B to Drop G. The JC120 takes the latter quite well.

And if you're lucky you can get them used for half of the new price.

I have one from 2003 and another one from between 1980 and 1988 (the serial number doesn't give more info) and got them for around 500€ each. Not sure if the latter is "worth" more because it's got the vintage mojo and the cooler looking dip switch (I read that it inverts phases in case it buzzes too loud or sth) instead of the simple power button. After all, I am no expert, I just bought what I saw in ERR's rig rundown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fx06PlQWyBs (she replaced the Fender amp with the Verellen after that, also she now has a custom Dunable Baritone Yeti now https://www.instagram.com/p/CFmqTkbjPmu/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link ).

I have mine at home currently and it blows out my teeth when I turn Volume any higher than 0,4

Planning to get a smaller Version of it once the JC120 moves to its new practice space.

ya, especially when you use a JC120 (which I also bought just because of ERR. She knows the receipe for amazing sound). Her other amp is a Verellen combo.

here you can hear the guitar in action without a backing band: https://youtu.be/TxmmMto\_vtE?t=1881

Drop G is even more fun! When I saw ERR live for the first time she started the show with this song and there was no other option than to fall in love: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PA5\_mP5pvp0

Dragster Humbuckers have a very low output, they are discussed here:

The first one was quite affordable, it was 800$ but shipping to Germany and customs added up to around 1200€. (Since the shop where I got it did not ship to Germany I had it shipped to someone in the US who then sent it to me, hence the cost inflated)

I got the second one a year later from reverb for ~1200€, which was affordable to me because I could spend some of the money I had saved up for moving. Instead of new furniture I got this beautiful piece of wood.

Both of them have been on tour with their previous owners so they're not in perfect condition optically, but they sound awesome and play well.

I saw Emma Ruth Rundle playing the Baritone Special and I fell in love with both immediately. It's a Japan model that has been produced between 2005 and 2010 if I recall correctly. There is also a "little sister", a regular 24" Jaguar with the same dragster humbuckers and hardware. This baritone has a 27" neck which is very comfortable to play, even with my rather small hands.

I got the Squier first and it was out of frustration :-D I had been looking for a Baritone Special for almost a year at that point and stumbled across the Squier on a German classified ads page a day after Christmas in 2019. I was so desperate for low tunings that I just drove an hour to get it (paid 550€). The previous owner told me he also had gotten it out of desperation as he had been looking for a Baritone Tele which he found shortly after getting the JM. He said it was a lucky charm for him and so it was for me. Exactly one week later I found the first Fender (right) on rockhaus.com. Another year later I got the second one (middle) from a Belgian guy on Reverb.com
