Default Baritone Truss Rods...

Well, what are you folks using? I had assumed that finding baritone rods would be easy peasy. I got the 17" rods from LMII but it turns out they won't work with how I do.

Anyone know of a 16 3/4" Truss rod? Preferably two way?

I have a baritone 12 string: Used 2 Mark Blanchard truss rods.

I've already cut a 14-fret Martin 2-way to fit a 12-fret neck. Just unwrap, weld, and rewrap cut ends. (I have a TIG machine laying around.)

Turns out if you google 16 3/4" Truss rod, you can just find one ready made. Backwards to things often I get.
