Baritone 6 and 8 strings - who makes one?

Ben_H · Oct 14, 2012

Other than this wonderful kamaka which is well out of my price range does anyone know of other baritone 6 or 8 strings please?

Mele ukulele's makes some 6 and 8 string baritones. Not particularly cheap but not as expensive as Kamaka's.

HMS has a Pono 8 string baritone for $399. Solid Mahogany, Ebony fret board etc. How much are you looking to spend?

At the moment, nothing! Honest

I have a custom baritone on order that I haven't finished saving up for yet so that will take me through till the end of February.

I'm looking ahead though as I like the 8 string idea but prefer baritones to tenors. Are you sure that's not a tenor you've seen on the HMS site, I can only find a mahogany Pono 8 string tenor for $399

Hmm, sadly at $800 dollars, by the time I get it over here with taxes and delivery it will be over $1100 dollars which I really couldn't justify.

Thanks for the suggestion anyway.
