Looking for some extra low-end? Allow us to introduce you to the MONDATA BARITONE VII!

Dennis Fano has really hit the ball out of the park with this one. Designed around the same body shape and construction as our best selling MONDATA VIII & XVIII models, the MONDATA BARITONE VII features a 28" scale for optimal string tension, German carve, chambered mahogany body, maple set neck with our comfortably chunky C+ profile and raised center block.

Under the hood we have both our 'Novanta' P90 in the neck, 'Brevetto' PAF style humbucker in the bridge position and mini-switches for phase / coil-split options making the MONDATA BARITONE VII as versatile as it is beautiful.

Other features include our signature full width fretboard inlays, Rivolta 3-aside headstock, 24 medium jumbo frets, and gold plexi appointments.

Critic Reviews

The Big Review: Rivolta Mondata Baritone VII

guitar.com

The Rivolta Mondata Baritone VII is a standout blend of vintage flair and modern versatility, offering a rich tonal palette that ranges from thick blues to airy indie notes. Its striking aesthetics, highlighted by a chambered mahogany body and elegant inlays, make it a visual treat. The innovative pickup configuration, including a P-90 and humbucker, allows for creative sound manipulation, catering to various genres. However, the lack of a Bigsby limits its vibrato capabilities, which may frustrate some players. Overall, it’s a beautiful instrument that excels in the studio but deserves to shine on stage as well.

Used on Viper Room, their 2025 album Bodies, and live performances of some songs from their 2022 album Heroine. The guitar is mostly kept in Drop F tuning, but is also tuned to G Standard for one or two songs, while pitch shifting is used to downtune further to Drop E1 or D1.
