I can’t  remember  ever playing a baritone before (acoustic or electric) so  I don’t  have any other reference or preconceived ideas. However, since I have plenty of experience now with my FS, I naturally use that as a general reference.  
 
The baritone is exceptional. It caused quite a stir in the store!
 

1.It definitely has the “can’t put it down” factor. Not scientific but very real.

2.The clarity and resonance of the notes is excellent, with great balance. I had two of our instructors play while I listened and the impression is the same from both sides of the guitar. It really fills a room!

3. 3.Notes also have a vocal quality. I think your cello reference applies here. Sometimes it almost sounds like notes are being bowed.
   

4.I’ve had a few laughs at myself because playing familiar chord voicings creates a certain expectation – then what comes out is so different! I even forgot how to play a few things because it didn’t sound “right”!

5.The lower register demands (or inspires) an entirely different approach to the instrument. It definitely clears your head and puts you in a different emotional place.  It’s quite amazing.

I spent a lot of time with it last night at home. I played a recent composition  (which  normally  is capoed  on the 2nd fret in standard tuning!) and it sounded great. I also wrote a new song on it last night that just needs a little more work.  I’ll work on
getting to the studio soon as possible and put a couple things down.
 
Thanks so  much  again  for sharing  your creation,  and  tell  Matt  thanks as well!   Music  is  such an awesome gift from God and we all get to share it in so  many  different ways.  I do run out of  adjectives  sometimes  but the instruments you and Matt build bring out the very best in the  people  who  have the opportunity to play them.  The  extraordinary care and effort that goes into each guitar makes its way into the music – absolutely, positively.
