Ortega RU5CE-BA Baritone

This Ukulele is fantastic, the wood used for the body is very high quality, and the craftsmanship is excellent. I also purchased the Thomann Baritone Uke gig bag for safety, and while this isn’t a review about that I have to say they go hand in hand perfectly! I strongly recommend that you purchase such a case with the Uke as it doesn’t include one.

The only negative I can find with this Ukulele is that the preamp for the pickup charges via usb c. It doesn’t have a battery slot. This may be perfect for some people who do not plug in to a PA often, but for a frequent user having to charge your preamp for hours is a lot less ideal than just switching out the battery.

Overall this is a great bargain ukulele, just remember to purchase a travel case and a spare set of strings as they will all come in handy!

After thorough googling I figured out that baritone ukulele might be my perfect instrument.
It is above any expectations to be honest. I audibly gasped when opened the box. Beautiful wood, delightful smell, impressive size.
Bonus - chargeable tuner, so no more hassle with batteries.
Pickup is great, tried it out immediately and was very pleased with the sound.

Had no issue with tuning it, yet nylon strings need to be tuned frequently since they’re new (as in all instruments with nylon strings).
Can’t leave it alone, it just wants to be played and played more.

Overall, I’m extremely happy. My excitement before the delivery was more than salvaged. Best birthday present I’ve ever gifted to myself.
