With the RU22BE, Alvarez highlights the spirit of the Regent Series: offering a reliable and musical instrument designed to last, without complicating the experience. Its choice of wood oriented towards warmth (mahogany), combined with a modified "fan" bracing, aims for a simple and effective balance between projection, dynamics, and homogeneity. This is a baritone ukulele designed to feel at ease at home, in rehearsal, recording, and on stage thanks to its integrated electro-acoustic system.
The Alvarez RU22BE is primarily aimed at beginners to intermediate players seeking a comfortable baritone, but it will also appeal to guitarists wanting immediate familiarization thanks to the D G B E tuning. Its deeper and enveloping register is particularly suitable for pop, folk, chanson, and fingerstyle, with excellent compatibility for vocal accompaniment. When amplified, it becomes a practical tool for performances where a natural sound is desired without complicated setup.
The solid mahogany top gives the RU22BE a soft and focused response, with a slightly muted attack and present midrange, very flattering in chords. The back and sides in African mahogany reinforce the timbre's coherence and support a pleasant sustain, particularly appreciated on a baritone. The modified "fan" bracing contributes to even projection and good clarity, even at low volume. When plugged in, the AUE20 EQ electronics with built-in tuner preserve this warm character while facilitating quick adjustments in amplified playing situations.
To get the most out of this format, favor baritone ukulele nylon strings designed for D G B E tuning, as well as a baritone gig bag or case suitable for a total length of 30.31" / 770 mm. For amplification, a 6.35 mm instrument cable is recommended, and keeping spare CR2032 batteries ensures autonomy for the tuner and preamp.
