Froggy baritones

Lately when I sit in front of a mic for sound check with one of my two (one lives in the studio, one tours) Froggy baritones, every single sound engineer is blown back and asks something like ” what the $%^&* is that!). I have my choice of any guitar in the world and there’s not a question in my mind as to what instrument I always gravitate toward.
I recently had a guy in my studio with a $ 15,000 instrument (maker will remain nameless at the request of the artist)… I put my little FB 2 in his hands and he used that for his sessions AND is buying the instrument from me.
