You say that the battery is behind the plate, but I believe it is a passive pickup.

I've got the CKP-70. Looks just like yours and has a strap button, which I haven't used. It has a stronger sound than my Ohana tenor and is excellent for finger picking. I think the body is a concert, though the neck is soprano.

I have the older one - soprano neck. It’s a terrific uke.

Some difference but not 900 dollars different

Vic how long did the baritone take to arrive

Question: Does the Living Water low G for tenor fit properly in an unmodified nut slot?

hella cool

Got one of these coming from Matt of World of Ukes. I've got him to add a strap button but I like that one you've got, I'll have to get one 👍

Hi! I just bought 1 from Mim's. I've been wanting a pineapple shape and soprano size uke. You talked me into it. Thanks for the good advice.

My 100 dollar ukulele doesnt stay tuned made in China of course.

Just wanted to say I really like your videos! Hope you're doing okay

my Ohana sopranino is in F tuning (cFAD). it barks like a big dog. I busked with it at Pike Place Market (no amplification allowed) and it cut through the crowd *and* traffic noises just fine.

Linden is Basswood. Sadly. I just bought one, and will convert it to Tenor low g. Basswood at that weight may not be durable. Sure looks stunning though!

Don’t know if I ihave to adjust my understanding or if uke players are a different breed but in 50 years of guitar playing I’ve never heard anyone refer to the first second third and fourth strings on a guitar as the bottom strings. Musical instruments are about sound. To me, D,G,B,E strings on a guitar have always been the top strings because of their pitch not their height sbove floor level. I guess it doesn’t matter much but it does strike me as weird.

It has truss rod?

Thanks for sharing Mr Schmeltz. How would you compare this to the Ohana pineapple soprano you reviewed? (Tone wise volume or physical components)

Low G nicer blends better you are a wonderful musician

Vic is this an OHana Baritone or tenor

you are very talented I find that steel strings stay in tune better I think I "M going to buy a carbon plastic from out door ukes in a tenor they said the action is very good on these ukes I need help

Hi Vic! That sounds so beautiful! Do you perhaps have a link to the single guitar string? I tried finding it on Stringsbymail, but the search results were a bit unclear

I love watching your KZbin videos, Vic. I'm always learning something new.

I make ukuleles. My first a pineapple tenor. The cavity was a bit too large and it tended to be a bit boomy at the low end. I used unwound low g tenor strings. I just tuned it down to baritone (DGBE) with the same tenor strings and it sounds very good. The string tension is ok and not too floppy. What fun!

Hi Vic, Will you be adding more Practice Makes Perfect videos? I have enjoyed these.

Thank you for the review. I bought one myself earlier this week and waiting for it to be delivered. Like you, I like plain Ukes best.

Great tutorial on philosophy of leading worship. Maybe setup a go pro aimed at your fingers so you can actually see the chords setup

I tried to learn classical guitar last year - my first attempt at a stringed instrument. I did not make much progress, and I was not enjoying it. A full sized classical guitar is not comfortable (compared to a uke), and the 2 inch nut width was a real stretch! I found the perfect instrument in the baritone uke. I can play it comfortably in a relaxed position, and the 1.5" nut width is perfect. I wish I had known about the baritone uke earlier. In the past 3 weeks or so, I made 10X more progress on the uke than I ever did on the classical guitar.

What is the device you put in the sound hole?

What are the best flat-wound strings for this? I can't stand round-wound 😖

Hi, Vic! Nice work. Pono AC vs. Anuenue C30 Which one do you like better? Better sound, better construction, better playability? Thank you!

Few days ago I saw this Uke in a store in Milano at 160€ because it is a ex-demo and I'm seriously thinking about purchasing. I played Tenor and Concert but never the Soprano size. Thanks for your review.

Thank you so much, beautiful review; if you do not mind can you tell me the total length of it.

I play mostly a baritone in DGBE, I do have a baritone in "cuatro" tuning. Low G and a low A...it's a great sound!

Looking forward for the review

There are distressed finishes, like Fender, which are rather severe and this non-buffed somewhat open pore finish. It doesn't bother me and it certainly doesn't look like a 70 year old instrument would. I changed the tuners to friction Grovers. My SK-38 is newer and my saddle and nut are bone. They added just a bit of gloss on the newer models too. You're right about the tone. It's my favorite uke.

It isn't a toy, it's a really solid uke like the bigger ones. Have had my SK-21 for years, sounds incredible

I'm not a musician but love playing the piano and my daughter loaned me her ukulele. I bought a low G, and now have ordered a baritone. I have a FURS syndrome so I cannot play a guitar, so I am happy "playing" with other toys. Merci.

I still play (electric guitar) but the more I play Baritone Uke, I find substitutions for those baselines by walking up and down the D string is satisfying enough and I also put a low G on my favorite Tenor.

I figured that as a fellow reviewer, you would be similar to me and watch all the ukulele reviews…Millar has been on the Got A Ukulele page several times over the last years (including this model, I think), but there really hasn’t been an easy way to buy them in the USA (just as I am sure that there are models in the USA that are not readily available elsewhere). I usually see these from World of Ukes…not sure if there are other vendors, though it is good to learn that the Ukulele Site is carrying them.

I'm a serious fan of Phil Dolman, and I've enjoyed the look and tone his uke for several years now. I recommend his KZbin channel and website(s). The Uke looks like an amazing value proposition, and It sounds great to me. Great review.

That Uke sounds great!

I just ordered one of these and it's surprisingly not bad for the price. I just think the wound strings overpower the stock aquila nylguts... I immediately ordered 3 different sets from SBM to experiment. thanks for putting this bari on my radar!

I own two Millars - an acacia and spruce longneck concert which is beautifully loud and clear, and I use when I go out to play in public, and an all Bolivian Rosewood tenor, which has a lovely rich tone. I tune down to Bb for added richness, and use it for jazz. Great instruments. The Phil Doleman soprano has been a temptation for over a year now.

These sound great !

I have the concert version of this. I love it ! I agree for the price. It’s incredible I bought it from a nice shop in Madison Wisconsin. Otherwise I would order from Mims !

Very nice uke, but I like a wider nut width on a soprano! This one has a 35mm according to Baz at Got A Ukulele.

Nice review Vic - I love this model

I have been eyeing this brand for awhile. You are tempting me, Vic:)

I think Cordoba is a very reputable brand. I got a 28 series Concert Hawaiian laminated Koa and it sounds very well and has a wonderful look.

Vic, I like the sound of all three Ukes but prefer the prototype Ohana for sound and look.
