THE BEST
ACOUSTIC.
PROBABLY.
Baum introduces the finest acoustic guitar.
Leaper Stage is made of premium tonewoods, styled with our attention to detail, and has our comfortable Baum C-neck shape.
Leaper Stage ticks all the boxes for the modern player seeking an intense sound, easy playability, solid tonewood, and details to get lost in.
Designed in Denmark and handcrafted in small batches to ensure the highest quality for each guitar.
The Leaper Stage is rich, loud, and resonant. Make everywhere your stage.
FOR THE
PICKY
PLAYER.
The Leaper Stage comes in two gorgeous colors, so you can pick the right for your song.
Available in Deep Honey Burst and Pure Black.
Can’t decide? Don’t worry. No matter how you like the Leaper Stage on the outside, the inside is always identical.
DESIGNED IN DENMARK.
Make it last, make it timeless. Rooted in the Danish minimalism, we create instruments with details and depth, that are both simplistic and sophisticated.
Our partnership with manufactures is based on mutual respect, understanding and know-how.
We have specified what ‘Designed in Denmark’ actually means to us in 4 stages.
A MUSICALLY RICH TONEWOOD.
Leaper Stage is crafted of solid East Indian rosewood on both the back and sides.
This gives the Leaper Stage a deep and articulate low-end, a blooming midrange, and a rich and crisp top-end.
Classic. Timeless. Solid.
WE THINK INSIDE
THE BOX.
The Leaper Stage is designed from the inside out, so you can do your greatest work.
Watch the presentation to learn more about how we designed the Leaper Stage to vibrate freely like a speaker, and which delicate materials we have used to give it a beautiful voice.
With a punchy bass, clear mids, and pure acoustic bliss, it’s note perfect.
FORWARDED
X-BRACING
We like thinking forward. Forward shifting the X-bracing makes the Sitka spruce top vibrate more freely like a speaker, with greater responsiveness, and an extended dynamic range.
Leaper Stage simply is louder, fuller, and more responsive to your play.
JUST PLUG
AND PLAY
Fishman included.
The Leaper Stage is ready for both studios and stages, as it comes with a Fishman piezo pickup installed.
The piezo is stealthily installed, delivers a crisp and true tone of your guitar, and its undersaddle placement makes it hum and feedback resistant.
Don’t worry about bringing this to the stage. It’s ready.
WE PUT OUR SIGNATURE
ON THIS.
Leaper Stage is also our signature.
It represents all that makes a Baum: designed with sleek lines and sophistication and made with the best materials giving the feeling of a solid instrument fitting perfectly together. It’s full of elegance and details making your eyes wander.
The Leaper Stage features the Baum Teardrop™ headstock, 3-per-side Butterbean 18:1 ratio open-gear tuners, a beautiful 2 mm thick rosewood headplate, a dark ebony trussrod cover, and a smooth ivory white binding to frame all the details.
It’s so beautifully functional.

THE DETAIL.
Details matter. And Leaper Stage is full of details adding character to the instrument.
Nothing is irrelevant, yet everything is intentional.
From the unique abalone Butterfly™ inlays, the classic herringbone rossette and purflings, to the sleek designed ebony bridge and trussrod cover, everything is designed with uncompromised intent.
Beautifully joined by a dark ebony fretboard, and framed with vintage lines and ivory white bindings.
