Baritone Uke

My Guild Baritone Ukulele is up on Reverb.

I've enjoyed it, but haven't played it as much as I thought I would. Time for it to go to a new home.

Pretty clean overall, but three cracks that have all been repaired.
Ask away with any other condition questions.

I'd go $700 to LTG, but I feel a bit smooshy on the price. Make me an offer.

Or perhaps you'd like the Uke as a partial trade + cash for your 80s or 90s Starfire?

Very cool! I've never seen a case for one - that is also very cool!

Question - what are the 4 round "stickers" surrounding the Guild label?

Mine came with the original un-Guild-branded soft case with the yellow interior. (They also fit well in a standard Bari Uke hard case, btw.)

Those look like some spruce crack reinforcements. If you look at the back pic, you’ll see corresponding cracks.

Those are wooden cleats to fix the two cracks in the back of the uke. Sometimes you need less, sometimes more of them: https://www.bresquebasses.com.au/blog

Right, same for me, never seen such case!

Yep, the circles are the cleats for the two cracks in the back. They've held those cracks solid in the time I've owned it. I agree the case is cool, certainly in a historical, "vibey" kind of way. This one looks it's age, but functions perfectly well. Plus no smells!

Still available.
