The Celestor

THE CELESTOR



The Celestor electric guitar is designed by Morten Bau for Baum Guitars.



The Celestor captures a lifetime of influence in a new experience that is a pure joy to play and look at.



The design approach combines Baum’s Nordic heritage of valuing product longevity with high-end materials, build quality, and timeless design to create an instrument that withstands years of use and changing trends with a fascination of the 60’s and 70’s bold design characteristics in vintage cars.



The whole design process is seen from a holistic perspective where design elements must also underline its playability and sound. Examples are the extended cut on the lower horn to improve accessibility to the upper frets, a thinner body that reduces weight and gives a slimmer neck joint, a choice of roasted maple for the neck which makes it more stable and reduces the need for tweaks and set-up during a tour making it a trustworthy partner.



The Baum Celestor electric guitar is deeply rooted in Baum’s Nordic philosophy focusing on functionality with high-grade materials in a timeless design for longevity combined with an inspiration in the 60s European car design often bold styles. It seamlessly takes the minimalistic lines to the max by using them to emphasize a confident and elegant design.



The Celestor uses high-quality materials, including roasted maple, mahogany, and rosewood for the body and neck, hardware made of solid brass and nickel, custom-voiced Goldsound® Verve™ pickups, all of which combined give the Celestor a unique and bold sound versatile for many music genres.



The body contour leans forward and sits comfortably on the player making it easy to play standing and seated. Its body style makes it lightweight and resonant, and the C-profiled neck shape makes it a comfortable experience for the player.



Precisely engineered hardware also adds to the functionality, balance, and overall style as the Celestor is crafted with the Baum Precision Tuners™ and Baum TrueTone Tremolo™.
