Full Description
View Full DescriptionDeep, rich, resonant brilliance
Crafted with high-quality tonewoods, the U1B produces an unmated baritone superiority. The mahogany used for the top, back, and sides generates warm and rich sounds that are perfect for genres like folk, blues, and jazz. This mahogany is known for its excellent projection and sustain, making it a popular choice among musicians who want an instrument that produces a full-bodied harmonic. Complementing this is a pau ferro fingerboard and bridge, a dense hardwood with tonal characteristics similar to rosewood. This material provides exceptional clarity and sustain, allowing you to create bright and articulate voicings. The combination of two fine tonewoods creates a well-balanced sound that ranges from deep and resonant to bright and lively.
Dance your fingers along the fingerboard with ease
The UB1's mahogany neck offers a comfortable grip, naturally resting in the palm of your hand for the perfect fretting base. On top of this sits a satin polyurethane finish, which adds to its silky-smooth texture. What's more, thanks to the pau ferro fingerboard and eighteen frets, it is effortless to navigate your fingers from fret to fret with ease - perfect for executing complex chord progressions. With a scale length of 20.1", there's ample space for fingerstyle playing, while the composite nut ensures accurate intonation across all frets. And to ensure you always sound pitch perfect, you can rely on the satin nickel tuners with black buttons.
Booming baritone acoustics
The baritone ukulele body is an exceptional instrument that offers many benefits to musicians. One of the most significant advantages is its deep, resonant tone, which provides rich and full sounds that are unique among ukuleles. This fuller-bodied harmonic is achieved by the increased size of the instrument's body, allowing for greater projection and sustain. Additionally, the size of the baritone ukulele body provides more space for your hands, making it more comfortable for extended chord progressions and fingerpicking patterns. Its longer scale length also sets it apart from other ukuleles. The frets are spaced farther apart, making it easier to navigate and play intricate melodies. This feature makes it an excellent choice for those who want to explore different styles and techniques.
