In the realm of hardwood baritone ukuleles, what do fellow UU-ers prefer? Mahogany, koa, or another wood?
I know there are plenty of "what's the best wood" threads but I want to start one specifically about hardwood baritones, which, to me, are a distinct thing. Many people seem to prefer baritones with soft tops (cedar or spruce) because they brighten up a dark-sounding uke or make it sound more like a guitar. I am interested to hear which, among the hard woods, people prefer for baritones.
