Man, I don't think the price is out of line at all. The inside work is gorgeous and innovative as is the design. It's not just the time and materials to create it, but also the years of thought and experimentation that are included in the artisano. It's in a different class than a Far Eastern factory instrument made from a template . . . and some of those have costs approaching this beautiful thing.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Didn’t say it was. Just would have been wrong to not point out how it compares to other Bonanza ukes I’ve looked at

I purchased my custom Oreo back in 2019 after watching your video on it. I loved working with Pete and his wife, getting to choose all the specs and details of my instrument. Such nice people and I'm so happy to hear Pete is back making these great ukes and still improving on the design, taking bold steps and pushing the boundaries.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Thanks for sharing!

@Mad4saxBrewery Месяц назад

I love my Bonanza Oreo #302. Glad Pete is back making Ukes. This new one is a wonderful sounding instrument.

@kathleenhickey7793 Месяц назад

I have a cherry Homestead that I bought last year from their available stock. If you find the Millennium to be a bit above your budget, the single wood Homestead line plays like a dream. Pete has a skilled eye for choosing beautiful wood. My Homestead doesn't have any extra decoration, and it doesn't need it. They are great people to deal with. Well worth checking out!

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Thanks for sharing!

@raykennedy8498 Месяц назад

Very cool. I had to LOL when you made the comment "Where is all that noise coming from!" I was thinking exactly that at the same time. Keep going Pete you have a wonderful talent..

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Exactly!

@veroldaley1 Месяц назад

Yes indeed, a wonderful instrument certainly worth the price, i like it a lot

@ukeplayalongs Месяц назад

Just one quick note: the Ranch Hand models have the integral neck, too. I still haven’t reviewed mine! It’s just more proof of how Pete continues to try new things and then keeps using the no-longer new techniques in his latest builds.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Yes, fair point

@MariUSukulele Месяц назад

Have been following Bonanza throughout the years and always thought highly of the brand. So then weeks ago I was thrilled to learn that Pete’s recuperated to a point where he can build again. My order’s already underway…

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Excellent!

@stevesstrings5243 Месяц назад

Pete does beautiful work!

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Yes he does! Clever too!

@lsclair Месяц назад

Absolutely gorgeous!

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

It is indeed!

@tomfontanella6585 Месяц назад

I’ve had a Bonanza baritone with the same body shape but an all mahogany body for two years. I smile each time I pick it up because it is was designed and made with craftsmanship. Pete and his wife are also wonderful to deal with. The thin shape makes it light and a joyful instrument although I find that a strap is needed to keep it cradled when playing.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Nice!

@BaritoneUkeBeast4Life Месяц назад

This was an excellent review as always! I have not heard of Bonanza Uke's before but I am a big fan. I just went to their website after watching this review and I am eyeing the Baritone and one of the tenor's they have currently in stock.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Well worth grabbing one!

@BaritoneUkeBeast4Life Месяц назад

@@GotAUkulele I am looking at the older style Oreo which I understand are popular and less expensive, but this new Millennium tenor I find very intriguing especially with the integrated neck design. Do you feel that the newer design sounds noticeably better? I also noticed you mentioned the Millennium has a 40mm nut width, is that what it was on the Oreo model as well? Is the Millennium a superior playing experience than the Oreo? I am trying to figure out if the extra $150 price jump is worth it or if I would be just as happy with the Oreo. Thanks in advance.

@BlessYourHeart254 Месяц назад

Excellent, Baz-smile-inducing uke!! ❤

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Many thanks!

@rehamkcirtap Месяц назад

I am stoked to know that more Bonanza are going to exist out there. Pete does incredible work

@rehamkcirtap Месяц назад

I've got a homesteader 5 string baritone in aspen. It's a joy to play

@joephillips4082 Месяц назад

The design does work, and work well. From this side of the RU-vid screen its brightness is just fine to me; clear and sharp. Not muddy when strummed. A high-dollar price, but good value for money considering the handwork, innovative design, and great tone. Excellent review.

@intoitreviews Месяц назад

I was looking at this body style, love it. Don't love the price jump..😢 I'd probably do Walnut as the main with aspen strips. Would richen up the tone imho.

@tracythorleifson4108 Месяц назад

It sounds great! 😃

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Yeah - very accomplished again from Pete

@user-uk7ce8eg9s Месяц назад

Very interesting! I love the look. I'm am embarrassed to say that I have never heard of this builder, and I live in Minnesota. I will have to look into Bonanza. Thanks for another good review.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Well worth checking out!

@richardsnow7299 Месяц назад

Where does that sound come from. It's wonderfully sounding ☺️ thanks Barry

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Yep - Pete does this to me every time with his ukes!

@bobbates797 Месяц назад

I quite like this Baz reminds me of the humbug’s my uncle used to bring me and my sister when we were kids. What timing as well just finished an episode while working my way through a Bonanza box set 😂 👍

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Ha ha!

@mcstabba Месяц назад

Quite a distinctive look, I like it, sounds nice as well. I've always been wanting a Bonanza (well, not always but since I first found out about them through Got a Ukulele at least). Personally I'm still leaning towards an Oreo though if I pull the trigger some day.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

The Oreo is the one I regret not buying to this day!

@drpkmurphy Месяц назад

Wow I really like the looks of this one. Love the neck markers but the neck also looks a little boxy for my liking. The head and gears are nice. The price for hand made is not bad at all. I agree it sounds like a concert. Bright for a tenor. Like the melodic strum and picking. Very nice instrument and another enjoyable review…. Thanks my friend… DOC

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Thanks Doc!

@Lalairu Месяц назад

Wow, it's very very pretty and the volume is incredible! Besides I love the pattern.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

He's got it so right with these stripes - I love it!

@Lalairu Месяц назад

@@GotAUkulele right? just perfect

@patman13b Месяц назад

Not just unique looking but lovely sound. I’d love to sit on a porch and play my favourites just to hear what this uke adds to them.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Same!

@jensenhealey08 Месяц назад

With 20% VAT and shipping (also +20%), a $700 price tag makes this a pretty luxury purchase in the UK. Pity, it's a lovely instrument.

@ianwalker682 Месяц назад

I love the look of this one. I like a low G on some ukuleles but for me it doesn't blend well on this one. To my ear it sticks out and isn't playing well with others. haha That's the great thing with strings though at least you can change them out to fit your taste.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Quite agree Ian

@mikek4708 Месяц назад

Lovely and aesthetically unique uke. Thanks for the review appreciated as always. Always wonder how, import tax for instruments works. I think it is confusing for auk and we pay a lot. Would be interested if anyone has experience of importing a uke from USA etc. Have a great Uke.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

I can only speak for the UK - 20% VAT, about 9% duty and post office handling charges

@oldcrow6990 Месяц назад

Mmmminnesota!

@isaacwong9846 Месяц назад

Hello, there are two concert ukulele choices: Fender Zuma and Cordoba 15cm Matiz. Which one do you recommend? Thanks.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Sorry - not really a fan of either

@stoneyrunva Месяц назад

Couple typos in your title. Thanks for this review.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Sorry about that

@stoneyrunva Месяц назад

@@GotAUkulele No worries. Doesn't detract from your excellent review. I think I love this ukulele. I'm searching now for a baritone. I'd love to match a good set of low g to blend with the brightness and get every string singing even more. Seriously, it's like the 70s muscle car of ukuleles.

@stoneyrunva Месяц назад

Millenium with one N per the website.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Nope? Where?

@raymondstebbins5904 Месяц назад

Glad Pete recovered he builds these with love had he lost his ability to make these would have sucked

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

Me too - was horrible to hear something like this could have stopped him

@danielbohland5271 16 дней назад

Beautiful and it's handmade good Lord there's ukuleles that are in the thousands of dollars for me that would be a bargain to have something handmade like that just my opinion anyway

@GotAUkulele 15 дней назад

Quite agree!

@andynew2 Месяц назад

I’m old enough to remember Alembic basses.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

That’s one of the ones I was thinking of! Uke connection there too - the late Rick Turner was involved who went on to make other guitars and Compass Rose ukes!

@daveflatters4981 Месяц назад

I just looked at the photos on the website. The damned thing looks more beautiful on the inside than it does on the outside. That bracing is fascinating and the sides are so thick.

@GotAUkulele Месяц назад

I know right?
