Who will go for the blemish baritone with pickup at only $60...

The nova tenor runs about $180, and since it plastic/carbon/whatever the material actually is, you don’t need to worry a ton about the climate it was kept in. For that same reason, you don’t need to worry a whole ton about setup. If it were me, and some won’t like the idea, but I’d get this...

Haven’t had the chance to even plug it in yet, but was excited to share this quick photo. Wife loves how quiet it is unplugged 🤣 More to follow later this weekend! Ordered Monday, arrived today — Thanks Uke Republic!
