I’ve made a couple of Baritone ukuleles and it’s an instrument that
I really enjoy building. Unfortunately, because I build them like small
guitars, they take me far too long to make and I can’t compete with price of
the best factory built ones; so I don’t think there will be any more built in
the foreseeable future.
The first was built for Morgan Nicholls of Muse fame. He supplied
the sinker redwood sound board, African blackwood back and sides, pink ivory
binding…..oh and the fossilised walrus tusk nut and saddle!
This one has Brazilian mahogany back and sides and a Sitka soundboard, there’s also a Headway transducer fitted.
Completed in 2019; Engelmann spruce, figured sycamore, cocobolo details
