This is great sounding and looking instrument that has been much loved and played. It is in very good condition, with no dents or cracks, but some play wear and a fair number of marks on the top. Tried show the top condition in the photos and will be happy to take more if you need. This a great player’s instrument with a loud, warm, old-timey tone and some bark to it. The neck is exceptionally comfortable with a slim, fast, and a lot fun to play. Another one that I should keep. But, as I’ve bought a few ukes recently, I’ve got to push a couple out.

Comes with the pictured tweed hard shell case.
Asking $750 shipped CONUS (FedEx Ground)

I'm intrigued by the bridge on this baritone. Sort of a cross between a string through and tie bridge. I don't think I've seen one before. It sounds wonderful too. The intonation was really excellent and not a hint of buzziness on the basses which is so common on baritones. This is tempting. Someone snag this before I add a fourth baritone to my already unjustifiable collection.
 
Sounds great, Hodge. Very balanced tone (so many baritones sound boomy).
 
This has to be the prettiest uke i've seen. The build quality in that neck is stunning... a master luthier at work!

Good luck with the sale, this will be a great buy for someone!
 
Thanks for the very nice comments.

Price revised to $750 shipped CONUS, FedEx Home.
