THE BEST ACOUSTIC. PROBABLY.
Baum introduces the finest acoustic guitar. And a true workhorse for the touring musician.
Leaper Stage is classic dreadnought made of classy tonewoods like solid East Indian rosewood for the back and sides, American Sitka spruce for the top, and ebony for the fretboard and bridge.
It's styled with wonderful details, 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 PLAYERS
The Leaper Stage comes in four gorgeous colors, so you can pick the right one for your song.
Available in Deep Honey Burst, Pure Black, Deep Burgundy, and Vintage Natural
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.
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.
THE MOST LIKEABLE NECK
The Wingman features our modern C profile, which is the most popular neck profile for a reason. It’s comfortable to most players because it does it all, and it does it great.
Made of roasted maple with a 12″ rosewood fretboard and a satin lacquer finish.
Frets are medium jumbo giving you a balance of width and height making the Wingman easier, smoother, and more fun to play all night.
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.
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.
