Hi all,
it's been a while, but my music playing took a different direction, sold most of my uke gear, this Barron Rivers baritone was purchased on a whim, it's beautiful, this one is actually pictured on Allen Mcfarlens barren river site, under gallery-baritone, the specs are
6 string ukulele in Australian Blackwood with a Cedar Soundboard. Indian Rosewood trim and a modern Art Deco styling, pickup fitted, amazing Gotoh precision machine heads, mother or pearl inlaid fret markers on the fret board and fret M,O,P markers down the sound of the neck, strings are threaded through bridge holes, then you place a bead on the end and tie a knot in the string end, then the usual winding around the machine heads, nice and clean with no messy string ends at the bridge, all in all it's a real piece of craftmanship, Barron river ukes are custom builds and this one comes out at around £1200 with shipping, dollar price was about $2100
scale length 22” and it's strung now with a fresh set of Kamaka strings - D, gG, B, ee, it's in lovely condition, but it's got to go sadly, I would prefer UK, make me an offer best around £600 gets it, which is low, but as I said bought on a whim, and due to classical guitar taking all my time and effort, it's got to go, make me an offer.... actual uke is here on Allen - Barron river site http://www.brguitars.com/gallery/baritone/ it's the 6th image, only 6 string in the baritone gallery
