Description
The guitar that started Baum.
The Leaper Tone™ has been part of our story since 2015. One of the original designs that helped shape Baum, combining our love for vintage guitars, Scandinavian design and instruments that feel as good as they look.
Built around a semi-hollow mahogany body with a maple top, the Leaper Tone brings together warm resonance, an open response and the unmistakable character of a guitar made for rock 'n' roll.
But the Leaper Tone has always been about more than its shape.
Our Goldsound® Rewind '52™ P90 pickups deliver the clarity and dynamics of a vintage single-coil, with the rich midrange and growl that make P90s so distinctive. From warm, articulate cleans to gritty blues and driven rock, the Leaper Tone responds naturally to the way you play.
The Bigsby B70 vibrato adds expressive movement, paired with our custom-developed Baum Levitator™ Roller Bridge to help reduce string friction. Baum Precision™ Tuners with a 21:1 ratio provide fine tuning control.
A dark roasted maple neck, 12" radius rosewood fretboard and signature Crown™ inlays bring together comfort, playability and the familiar details that have become part of our design language.
As part of the Original Series, the Leaper Tone represents our approach to bringing Custom Shop thinking into small-batch production. More specialised components, more complex construction and the freedom to develop the details that make each instrument special.
Every Leaper Tone is designed in Denmark and goes through final inspection, setup and play-testing by our team in Aarhus before shipping.
More than a decade after its introduction, the Leaper Tone remains one of the guitars that defines Baum.
An original since 2015. Still unmistakably Baum.

BAUM QUALITY CONTROL
Every Baum goes through several quality control points. The final step happens in our Danish Custom Shop where each instrument is personally inspected and tested by our guitar tech team of professional musicians. We’re very picky and go over every detail and part.
Our process:
-
Delivery inspection: Each guitar is unpacked, examined, and approved for build quality and finish.
-
Hardware & electronics: Each instrument gets the Baum Premium Set-up. Read more about that.
-
Performance test: Finally, our set-up team play and fine-tune the guitar to ensure it meets Baum’s tone and feel standards.
Nothing leaves our hands until it matches our quality for how it plays, sounds, and looks.
BAUM SETUP
Every Baum is refined by hand in Denmark by our guitar tech setup team of professional musicians. Our guitar techs inspect, adjust, and play test each guitar to bring out the best of each as they know what it takes to be a performer.
-
Frets & fret ends – crowned and smoothed by hand.
-
Nut setup – inspected and cut for the optimal height and zero friction.
-
Truss rod & action – fine-tuned for the best playability.
-
Pickup height & intonation – dialed in for balanced tones and precise intonation across the neck.
-
Hardware – tested and tightened for lasting reliability.
-
Strings – we trust D’addario 10-46. Strings are replaced if needed for a fresh, consistent feel.
-
Final inspection & polish – every curve checked, every detail cleaned.
-
Play test – every Baum is played by our luthiers before shipping.
Stage-ready the moment you plug it in.
CUSTOM HARDWARE
Our instruments are full of custom-made hardware and parts that we in-house engineer and design in Denmark with tight tolerances and high-quality materials to improve quality, feel and performance in every detail.

Goldsound® Rewind '52™
Our Goldsound® Rewind '52™ P90 pickups capture the warmth, clarity and unmistakable character of classic vintage P90s.
Built with Alnico V magnets, they're voiced for a more traditional P90 sound, with rich mids, open highs and a natural, dynamic response that brings out the details in your playing.
Clean, they're warm and articulate, with plenty of character. Push your amp, and they come alive with that familiar P90 growl, bite and natural grit.
From mellow blues and soulful leads to classic rock 'n' roll. Vintage warmth with just the right amount of attitude.

Good to know
Questions before you order?
Straight answers about preorders, payment, delivery and the home trial.
When will my guitar ship?
Look at the purchase option above the Add to cart button. In stock guitars leave Aarhus within 1-4 business days. Preorder guitars are built in a limited batch and ship in the month shown, after our team has set up and play-tested every guitar in that batch.
Preorder months are our best estimate. You can follow your batch on the production updates page, and we email you if the date moves.
Do I pay now for a preorder?
Yes. A preorder is paid when you place the order, which reserves your guitar in the batch. If you prefer to spread it out, choose Partial.ly at checkout: a down payment today and the rest in monthly instalments, all paid before the guitar ships. The exact down payment for your currency is shown on this page.
What is in the box?
This bundle ships with the Baum Deluxe Gigbag (sold on its own for €159) and a full setup by hand in Aarhus. During Black Deals '26, selected VEGA guitars also come with the Ellipse studio headphones (worth €399) or a Baum Original Strap. The box under the price shows exactly what is in the bundle for this guitar.
How does the 45 days home trial work?
We call it Try At Home. Play the guitar with your own amp, pedals and songs for 45 days. If it is not the right fit, contact us and we help arrange the return. The full terms are on the Try At Home page.
Are taxes and import duties included?
Yes. The price you see includes VAT and import duties for the countries we ship to, so there are no surprise fees when the courier arrives. Details are on the tax and import page.
Is the guitar set up before it ships?
Always. Every guitar is inspected, set up and play-tested by our team in Aarhus, Denmark. We check the fretwork, adjust the action and intonation, and make sure it feels right before it goes in the gigbag.
What is the difference between In stock, Preorder and B-Stock?
In stock: ready in Aarhus, ships in 1-4 business days.
Preorder: reserved from the next production batch, ships in the month shown.
B-Stock: a guitar with small cosmetic marks, fully set up and play-tested, usually at a lower price.
Every option gets the same setup and the same 45 days home trial.
