The Baritone, the Natural Bridge Between Ukulele and Guitar

Tuned like the four high strings of a guitar (D?G?B?E), the baritone ukulele holds a unique place: it retains the ukulele spirit while offering a deep foundation and a wider range. The "Au70Wbe Art. Uke" model fits into this family as a versatile instrument, capable of moving from home to stage without compromise.

For Whom and Which Styles?

Ideal for guitarists looking to find their bearings in a compact format, as well as for ukulele players seeking a lower register. Perfect from folk to pop, including fingerstyle, vocal accompaniment, and jazzy arrangements. Its comfort suits both motivated beginners and intermediate players.

Sound

The A+ Sitka spruce top delivers attack, clarity, and projection, while the black walnut back and sides add warmth and roundness in the lows, with a very singing woody midrange. The 510 mm scale length provides good sustain and balanced string-to-string response. Plugged in, the AUE 20 EQ preamp faithfully reproduces the natural tone, with a backlit tuner to stay in tune in any situation.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

Have a spare baritone Aquila Nylgut string set to maintain the original sound signature. Protect the instrument with a baritone ukulele gig bag or hard case. A baritone-specific capo will allow you to vary keys without changing fingerings.
