Baby Bard – 6 String

The Baby Bard guitar features our classic Bard body design scaled down to a bit larger than a baritone ukulele. Jay, with lots of input and research from our customers, has come up with the perfect formula for an instrument of ultimate fun and playability while maintaining a tone that could not be achieved by simply connecting a six string neck to a baritone ukulele body. So much fun, in fact, that the prototype, which Jay built the first of this year, is one of Jay’s favorites.

Check out the 4 string Baby Bard model Jay build.

Words from one happy customer …

“Love the Baby Bard, played it all weekend! Looks like a piece of art, plays like butter, and sounds like a group of angles singing. I couldn’t ask for any better. Thank you for making such a special Instrument for me to play.”
Cheers Scott
