My Blue Matteo 2008 513 is a lovely guitar which I'll probably never sell, but due to two other 513s in the stable, I thought having all of them in the same tuning was a bit redundant. At the same time, I have recently started playing a lot more in B standard and drop A, and find the 27-28" baritone scale length a touch cumbersome.
I saw Anderton's Sound like Slipknot and something clicked when I realized that they play in Drop A with a 25.5" scale length. The 513 is close enough at 25.25.
Long story short, add 13-56 strings, adjust the bridge and intonation, switch to clear humbucking bridge for leads, single coil position 4 for cleans, and you will never need any other Baritone guitar.
