Raindrop 19" Standard Scale, Solid Body, Steel String Electric Baritone Ukulele. Maple topped mahogany body with a mahogany neck.
This HiGuitarsUK Raindrop ukulele is handmade from quality materials and components in Nidderdale, North Yorkshire.
The mahogany/maple wood combination along with 2 HiGuitarsUK hot alnico pickups helps create a great sounding instrument. While an additional coil-tap switch, which taps both pickups for additional sounds, helps to create a broad pallet of tones. The vintage influenced styling, satin finish and quality chromed hardware combine to give a classy vintage yet modern vibe.
This instrument has an all steel adjustable bridge with high mass stainless steel saddles and an electric guitar like bridge string spacing (32mm D to E).
