Detail 01
Solid spruce top
Solid wood moves more freely than laminate and opens up with playing time. Spruce keeps the attack crisp.

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A baritone ukulele with a solid spruce top, tuned lower than standard ukes. For guitarists who want familiar chord shapes on a small body.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Guitarists wanting uke portability without relearning chord shapes
- Singer-songwriters who need a lower, fuller accompaniment voice
- Players stepping up from a laminate-top soprano or concert
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone wanting the classic high, chirpy soprano ukulele sound
- Players needing to plug in — there is no pickup
- Shoppers wanting the smallest possible travel instrument
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Baritone body, 20-inch scale
Longest scale in the ukulele family. Deeper voice, looser string feel, and guitar-like left-hand spacing.
Detail 03
Rosewood back and sides
Adds low-end weight and overtone richness under the bright spruce top. Keeps it from sounding thin.
Detail 04
Compensated saddle
The saddle is shaped per string so fretted notes up the neck stay closer to in tune.
Detail 05
14 frets, 1-inch nut
Narrow nut keeps chords compact. Fret access ends where the neck meets the body, so this is a chord instrument.
Detail 06
No pickup or preamp
Amplifying it means a microphone or an aftermarket pickup installed by a tech.

Know before you order
- 01Nylon strings need days of stretching before tuning holds — expect that

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How is a baritone ukulele tuned?
Baritone is the lowest-pitched ukulele and its longer 20-inch scale carries that range. It sits well below soprano and concert ukes.
02Is this good for a total beginner?
Yes, though the wider baritone body and longer scale are a stretch for small hands. A concert size is easier for young players.
03Can I plug it into an amp?
Not as sold. It has no pickup or preamp. You would mic it or have a pickup fitted afterward.
04Is the whole body solid wood?
The top is solid spruce. The back and sides are rosewood, and the neck is mahogany with an Indian rosewood fingerboard.
