Handmade, Hawaiian, Ukulele, unique, CBG!

Kamaka baritone Ukulele an instrumental tune for sharing the incredible tone. As a piano/ organ player for many years, health has challenged me to find other, less weighty gear and this instrument was passed to me by an old friend. She used to take me around Hawaii as bandleader. I miss her, but the Uke came to life as soon as she came in tune!

I think the Baritone Uke is highly theraputic, and magical (sopranos seem to me, too little)...mine was a 25$ beater that i "cheat on" tuned so all chords I can barre,........strung with classical guitar strings, it emits lovely tone...the Kamakas are beauts...yours, a lovely share....thanks

Thanks all. Yes I play self taught, but after seeing the guy over across the stage...so long...and I admit to copying a little of what T Bone does. Mostly my hand goes up there by itself. The tone comes fat up there, and I can feel the sound push against my cupped hand just feels right. It seems to bring out the tone ..I listen, but always feel. If it don't feel right, it probably ain't .....thank you all. I've found a new home here!
