Get yourself the nicest baritone you can afford. You can simply capo into any other model you want to hear. 1 baritone can literally replace 4 different models.

Well, I'm not sure about everyone else, but my mind is filled with one thought... perhaps I NEED a Baritone.

Whisky sunburst is nice, but I agree I do like the sound of the Korina.

Definitely a Legend instrument..

Great Review, Im disappointed that you didnt include the KTO-10 Opio model. I have one, and it is very satisfactory for me.

Pretty

I don't consider the Baritone Uke to be an accompaniment instrument at all. Certainly not any more than a Tenor, Concert, or Soprano uke is an accompaniment instrument. The Baritone has quickly become my main instrument of choice for my everyday practice and playing. I tried the guitar as my first instrument but found it too much for me to handle as a beginner. The Tenor has too small of a nut width to accomodate my thick fingers and while I have played and can play a Tenor it isn't at all comfortable for me to play. With the Baritone, I can move freely about on the fingerboard without cramped spacing and I have full range of motion without having tense, tight fingers. The Baritone offers EVERYTHING a Tenor, Concert, and Soprano uke does but at a deeper octave range along with more volume. I think the reason there are a lot of Baritone uke players out there with more and more of them everyday is because it is an amazing instrument that sounds and plays a lot like a small guitar. Not everyone wants their ukes to sound like ukes.

Every Revelator is a unikate, and a wounderfull peace of handcraft made and a wonder of sound. I went one year bevor to Andreas, from „gute Ukulele“, to look after 3 different Uke‘s. After the first tone of the revelator I couldn't let go of the instrument. Yes, it’s money, but every penny worse! I‘m so happy, to have one of this marvelous instruments. Maybe … next year… 😊

Beautiful with sustain for days. Right where's my lottery ticket👍

Sounds great when you play it and they look amazing. While, I love the wood quality, the nut size and lack of fret dots, take it out of consideration for me. All personal preference of course. I did have quality control issues with my brand new $800 Kala last year, but I’m guessing these US made models are inspected much closer and that won’t be an issue. Thanks

Amazing tone, but they don't play themselves. You always do great work!

Lovely Alex, like them beautiful mate

I have a Tiny Tenor, and yes, in front of a mic it is incredible! I agree with the guitar-like sound that I hear in my headphones. I’m kind of spoiled that way now. Very nice rundown on Romero Creation options.

Anyone would be proud to own any of the K’s. When I was looking to upgrade I looked long and hard at all 3 brands and settle on thr KoAloha because to my ears it sounded the brightest. The more I play my KoAloha tenor the better it sounds.

Beautiful ukulele's from Flight (Yet again!) and your description and playing of each certainly showed off the true beauty and clarity of each remarkable instrument - and I can see the reason you played an entire night on the one ukulele when you first received it. I said to you when I met you at the Great British Ukulele Festival 2024 that I was looking for the Flight Nighthawk - but after seeing and hearing the Flight Comet - I want one!! (Now to try and persuade my darling better half that I definitely need another Ukulele!!!!).

Hate the plastic

Just ordered a Kala ASZCT-ST after watching this video. The tone, resonance, and size seemed perfect for my needs. It sounds so much fuller than any of the others and the spruce top and ziricote are just gorgeous. Your reviews are the most concise and give the clearest perspective on each instrument. Of course, the playing is divine and helps complete the picture. Thank you. 🥰🎶

The mango suits me all over the place. I'd buy it (and love it) and let you buy it back if you had regrets. I think what is happening with the mango is that you have said all you can say with it. Do you think it is holding you back at this point in your life? You sound like the way you would like to express yourself is quite different than you wanted to when you ordered the mango. The beautiful, safe appearance of the mango isn't you anymore either. You are ready to hold something up in front of you that is much more alive. You need livelier response in an instrument as well, to go where your increased emotional energy wants to take it.

Note that the pickup on the Flight Voyager tenor changed in 2022 from a Passive pickup to an Active pickup (Passive Artec "PP404U" to a Double C1U Active pickup). Note also that the controls for the pickup are mounted under the edge of the soundhole so no holes were needed in the shoulder of the instrument body for external controls. Be aware that some older new stock & used Voyagers (2020 to mid-2022) may have the passive pickup. Be sure to confirm you are purchasing the instrument with the pickup you want. Just remember "A" is for "Active" pickup in the newer tenor Flight Voyager model "EQ-A". Lastly, the newer Voyager fretboard is rosewood, not the ebony composite on the older model.

Thx so much! Also helpful would be the type of strings (plastic, nylgut, fluorocarbon, etc.) and tuning (high or low G) on the uke you are playing.

It is so interesting to go back in time and compare to today. You can hear the Kanile’a evolution. The advancements are stunning. Thanks

Are wound strings required? I can’t stand that squeak of metal strings. If it can be all carbon strings I’d be so happy!

The Scepter carried me away to a peaceful place. Really. I am watching a lot of ukulele videos. It seems to me, that in the lower end models, the sound sort of bounces off the wood. It sounds better as the quality of wood gets better. But I think I am hearing the sound commingle with the wood after a point, like that is when they become especially fine instruments. Resonance? I am listening to the sound of the strumming as well. I noticed the sound of the strumming on the KoAlohas I was hearing. More delicate and "uke-like"? I am trying to avoid the "Mando chop" sound. I hope to get back to England this autumn. I would love to visit your shop. I would want a baritone.

The links and the availability of those instruments in your store seem to be outdated

I agree with you on the Enya, I thought it had the best sound and I like the looks. Great info for beginners!

Sadly the plastic Flights are not available in NA, only the older TUS series with the laminate wood soundboard. But they are fun and very playable too. No word that the newer version will ever come to NA. The Enya on the other hand is readily available. While you have demoed some truly great higher end ukukeles, showing value models like this and giving your honest opinion of them is much appreciated. Like any hobby you have to start somewhere. 😊

I would recommend giving a Soprano a go. For a long time, I was unsure if I preferred concerts or tenors, I had just discounted the soprano completely for no good reason. Then one day I picked up a soprano on a whim and now I find that it’s my go to favorite size ukulele.

Thanks for the comparison. I'll show this to friends and relatives interested in starting with a soprano. I own the Enya, yay!

Yay! Woohoo! Winner, winner! I have that one. It's been with me river rafting, out by the pool, and I just played it at my son's 18th birthday celebration yesterday 🎂🥳. It still plays beautifully. I've had mine a couple of years now. Nice to see it here. Great video as usual. 😊 🎶

As someone who naturally migrates to low G tenors there’s something refreshing and peppy about the soprano. Those ukes sound really good for the price, especially the top three!

are you playing a righty left handed? im a lefty guitarist but thought id learn uke upside down so i could grab a righty if someone had one and just play rhythm instead of toting around a lefty or restringing. how hard can uke chords be right?

To my ear, the Pono outshone the rest with a much richer sound. Thanks for the demos!

Just came across that video. 8 strings baritone ukuleles are quite rare, and it seems really hard to find one with that level of finishing. I just bought a Baton Rouge V2-B8 and I absolutely love the sound, but I really miss the bevel of my Flight Victoria tenor and its finishing, aspect and overall feeling. I know this is an old video so this Kanile'a is surely already gone, but if you have any other suggestion for a well finished 8 strings baritone ukulele, I'm hearing !

Ohana-ck-50Gを持っています。美しい型と美しい音色。素晴らしいです。ありがとう。アメリカのOhanaのお店に行ってみたい🇯🇵

They do

I'm not an expert, but the pineapple seemed to be the better of the 2. The sound was more all-around and not as tinkerly as the guitar shaped one. The pineapple had the slightly more " ukulele " sound. There's not much in it, and at the end of the day, though, I would buy the pinapple just on its sound. All of the pineapples I have seen seem to be supranos ( 21 " ). A tenor would be welcome. 🙂

How do know if a uke is laminate?

Great demo! I've tried the Kala and found it's neck rather wide (compared to my current bass). How does the Flight neck width compare to the Kala?

5:33 which one is the string on the bottom?

Cancon!

If I have a piece of shit £25 ukulele what strings should I use as a lil level up?

Hey am new to. Ukulele just want to ask what song you play?

Sexy Ukulele’s ❤ 😍🥰😘 and they sound amazing with or without an amp ! I’m now banned from buying any more ukes ! 🥹🥲

Do Flights typically require a setup? Mine has a buzzing string, just wondering if that is normal with them.

Some of the best sounding affordable ‘ukuleles around!! Big fan of Kamoa!

I love the 'bite' of the kala

I love the South Dakota shirt lol.

The pointing pinky says it all. This man is vibing~

As a beginning ukelele player who has played guitar over 50 years I’m very curious why you did not restring your ukelele for left-handed playing? Does playing it strumming “backwards” make it any more difficult for your brain to process chord charts? That may seem like a silly question but I would guess that even fingering the chords may use different fingers (although same string and fret positions) to accomplish what you do….

That Phoenix wood ukulele looks awesome. Most likely out of my price range .
