Jared Newbery I remember only having Kala and Ohana Baritones 7 years ago.. its only in the past 2 years we have been able to make a Baritone wall in the shop.

hello Alan, pardon me for asking you out of the blue: is the Carvalho still holding up nicely? i 've heard some mixed messages on their lifespan... Thanks and enjoy the ukes!

@@altviooltom Absolutely no problem. Still plays and sounds as good, if not better, than when I bought it. In fact, it's now the only baritone uke that I still have - since posting the above comment, I had at least two other baritones, but the Carvalho left them all for dust. I originally bought from Amazon and reviewed it by awarding 5 stars, as did another reviewer. www.amazon.co.uk/Antonio-Carvalho-BS-Baritone-Ukulele/dp/B008PO9E7I I think Hobgoblin probably stock it as part of their range of folk instruments.

If I may interject. I agree with it sounding really nice although I did replace the saddle with a bone one. I bought the Cavalho baritone through ‘Thomann de’ (U.K.) it’s headstock is unbranded and has Thomann sticker inside. It also appears to have extra herringbone purfling around the edge. www.thomann.de/gb/thomann_baritone_ukulele_de_luxe.htm. I wrote a longer review in the reviews section for it. Hope this helps!

@@adamsandor3883 Interesting - especially as Thomann list one of the specs as "Bottom and sides: Solid acacia" which is exactly the same as mine even though some websites described it as laminated. The edge of the soundboard as clearly visible at the soundhole definitely shows that it's of solid wood construction. Your instrument and mine are obviously very, very similar, despite the brand name difference. Mine has no bound edge purfling and the fingerboard is of a much darker brown than the one illustrated in the link you provided. Superb instrument though, which is why I have kept it despite having had or tried baritones by Pono, Kala, Kanile'a and Ohana.

I can't tell whether you love the video or hate the video from the comment.

Yes, almost always

Jon San Aquila 21u standard Baritone DGBE.

Tuned CGDA? If so give me a call tomorrow when I'm at work as I'm fairly sure I can put together a set that would work

🤣

Very we'll known brand but I decided some years back not to stock them as we were spending too much time setting them up to make it viable and cost effective.

@@SouthernUkuleleStoreOk. Thanks. Hope they are not too much trouble. seemed like a decent value from what you presented. Enjoy the channel, keep it up. Regards

Solid top with laminate back and sides.

Jason Gaston I think the Kala KA-SA-B stood out as having the kind of sound I like.. I do really like how the Cordobas feel as well. Pono Baritones are incredibly popular but I personally am not quite as keen on them.

I made it up during filming. Randomly it's not something I've used much since on the videos... Sorry

Yes. Check out the shipping information on our website 👍

No particular song I’m afraid. I made it up on the day.

​@@SouthernUkuleleStore how strange- I thought it sounded familiar! Thanks of the reply :)

It probably is a few different songs thrown together. Sorry I couldn’t be more specific.

@@froop6123 sounds like a love song from paris/a non love song from Nashville by Dodie and Jon Cozart! You should check it up!

savana.sabertooth i know and lOve that song!! XP

If you own a guitar I can see sense in not trying a baritone before a Concert or a Tenor uke but what about all the other variables that make this suggestion underwhelming? What about the extra 6'' scale length? The big nut width with loads of random extra space you have created? Or, even the completely different tone created by the body size difference that soaks up loads of the brighter frequencies? Also, if your classical guitar is set up properly you will likely find the strings buzz without the E and the A to balance the tension. I think the majority of the people out there watching a video on Baritone ukes above the beginners price point will have an understanding of the similarities to guitar tuning but much like taking the B and E string off you guitar and saying it's tuned the same as a Bass; it's fine for a bit of fun but what makes an instrument is so much more than the tuning.

Eastern Cowboy cool, which one? There were a couple...

The one with the rope binding...

Eastern Cowboy the Córdoba Ukes aren’t given the respect they are due. They are great ukes for a modest price point. I have a Martin Tenor that I love (solid koa) but have found plenty that cost less and are very nice. I spent a mint on a Gibson Acoustic that I still have and play rarely since I took up uke. I love it, but I would be lying to myself if I said I hadn’t played many guitars much cheaper that were just as nice. Long gone are the days I spend huge money on instruments, I’ve found that the differences are subtle after a certain amount of money. Obviously aesthetically speaking, they can vary huge. Ohana, Cordoba, Lanakai, Orangewood and plenty of others make very nice instruments without having to take out 2nd mortgages. I agree with ya, I liked the Córdoba Baritone.

Not long after falling for Ukes,, I bought a Cordoba Without realising the Different tuning for Baritones. I ended up selling it ..but it had a beautiful tone for the price

Haha, the guitar is just a poor man's lute.

@GEOFF KNOLL - Names change, down the ages . . . . there has been something with four strings of a similar size for hundreds of years - try looking up 'Cuatro' and 'Taropatch', for example. Some histories suggest that the guitar was once a 4-string thing!
