Custom Lichty ‘Django’ Baritone Ukulele

Preowned. 2018. The ‘Django’ style archtop baritone ukulele is an absolute masterpiece and was designed and meticulous handcrafted by master luthier Jay Lichty of Lichty Guitars and Ukuleles in Tryon, NC.

Gorgeous Brazilian Rosewood back, sides, and headplate with a hard carved master grade Engelmann spruce archtop soundboard. Gabon Ebony wood fingerboard with custom inlay and matching Gabon Ebony wood floating bridge and tailpiece. Radius fingerboard for added wrist-angle comfort in the higher positions and a cantilevered neck. Honduran mahogany wood neck. Matching Hawaiian Koa wood bound fretboard, headstock, top and back binding, and arm bevel lending itself to a subtle but elegant aesthetic. Top, back, and side wood purfling lines with matching wood purfling lines on the fingerboard and headstock highlight the seductive contours of this beautiful baritone ukulele. Zero fret. Cocobolo wood inlay on positions, 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, and 15 with a 15 fret joint neck to the body for added reach in the higher positions. Upper bout sound ports near neck and side sound port for monitor like experience. Rodgers Precision geared tuners for precise and smooth tuning.

This beautifully handcrafted Lichty Django style modified baritone ukulele was designed with the intention to create an instrument with more overtones and increased sustain. By adjusting the porting from the traditional location to an upper bout porting system he was able to achieve just that. Great note separation with wonderful clarity and sustain. A highly recommended piece for the professional ukulele player as well as any ukulele enthusiast. ID#:190023
