Backwing - Deep Forest

BREATHTAKING BACKWING.

The Backwing is bold, lightweight, and built to turn heads. With its offset solid body design, roasted maple neck, and powerful Goldsound® Goldbucker mini-humbuckers, this guitar delivers a punchy, articulate tone made for the biggest stages.

Crafted from solid mahogany and shaped for comfort, the Backwing’s slim, balanced body makes it ideal for long sets and high-energy performances. The satin-finished Modern C neck profile feels smooth and fast in your hands—perfect for expressive lead work or tight rhythm playing.

Whether you're after warm cleans or gritty drive, the Backwing offers a wide tonal range with clarity and bite. And with its striking finishes, it looks just as good as it sounds.

This is a lightweight offset electric guitar with attitude, tone, and all-day playability.

SO MUCH PUNCH.

PAF‑style mini-humbuckers with modern clarity.

The Backwing is loaded with Goldsound Goldbucker™ mini‑humbuckers, delivering punchy tone and vintage flair. Engineered to channel the vibe of the legendary PAF humbucker, our Goldbuckers use Alnico V magnets for dynamic responsiveness and classic warmth.

Expect bright clarity, defined articulation, and tight lows. Perfect for cleans, crunchy riffs, and expressive solos. These pickups sit tonally between a PAF-style humbucker and a P‑90, offering both raw power and sensitive control without hum. Making the Backwing the best offset guitar for rock, alternative, grunge to pop or blues.

Goldsound® Pickups are bespoke and only available on Baum guitars—making the Backwing truly one-of-a-kind.

SUSTAIN & STABILITY

The Levitator™ Roller Bridge is Baum’s custom roller-saddle bridge, designed and engineered in-house to improve our instrument's tuning stability, sustain, and resonance.

Its precision brass rollers let strings glide friction‑free, reducing binding and keeping tuning steady during tremolo use, bends, and aggressive play. With a calibrated weight and high-end materials, the Levitator makes sustain and dynamic response better and every note ring like it should.

The Levitator combines performance, tone, and reliability in one elegant design.

Modern C‑Shape Neck Profile

The Backwing features Baum’s modern C‑shape neck profile: the most popular guitar neck shape for its comfort and versatility. Designed to feel familiar and natural in any playing style, it offers a balanced comfort that works for chords, riffs, and fast leads alike.

Crafted from roasted maple with a 12″ rosewood fretboard and a satin lacquer finish, it feels fast, fun, and ready for long sessions.

Medium‑jumbo frets provide the ideal balance of width and height, making bends effortless and playability consistent across the entire neck.

A modern C guitar neck that does it all and does it beautifully.

Baum Precision™ Tuners.

The Baum Precision™ Tuners give you total control over your tuning so you can focus on playing, not tuning. With a high 21:1 gear ratio, every turn is smooth, accurate, and rock‑solid.

Each tuner features a solid brass shaft, a dense, low‑friction metal that not only boosts tuning stability and string articulation, but also enhances resonance and sustain by efficiently transferring string energy into the headstock.
