Ortega Bonfire Series RU5-BA Baritone Ukulele

Ortega Bonfire Series RU5-BA Baritone Ukulele
Product no: 9000-0046-6387 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

By far the biggest model in the Ortega Bonfire Series, the RU5-BA baritone ukulele offers players an easy time transitioning over from a full-size guitar, even more so because the four pre-installed Aquila Nylgut strings have the same tuning as the four highest strings of a standard guitar. While still a uke, the RU5-BA packs surprisingly big sound and comes thoughtfully finished with a laser-engraved spruce soundboard and tortoiseshell-style ABS binding.

Wrote the following about Ortega Bonfire Series RU5-BA Baritone Ukulele

Ik vind het geluid niet mooi en er zit geen gig bag bij. Dus hij gaat terug. Mijn advies neem de sacha heeft gigbag mooi geluid. Die is stukken beter
