Thank you for doing this. I too play my baritone as a standard uke as I like the sound emulating GCEA. The Aklot bamboo concert is rather bright with GCEA tuning so going with these strings really makes a difference. Nice to have one as modified in your collection.
Thanks. I have put these Pepe Romero Baby Bari strings on one of my tenors, but have not tried them on a concert. I will do that now. By the way, even though I know baritone chords, I will first try the same chord "shapes" I use on my GCEA ukes on my baritone to see how it sounds. Usually - just fine ( different "note names" , but the sound progression usually sounds great).
Thanks so much for this video. Pepe Romero advises in his own video that these Baby Baritone strings can be used on a concert. See link. ruclips.net/video/yQnMQJCkY3I/видео.html. I'm in Australia and Pepe Romera Strings are around $35aud. Another alternative I have found to use on my Tenors is MARTIN M160 BALL END CLASSICAL GUITAR STRINGS - HIGH TENSION - Use string 1 as the E (can also use string 2 but if prefer string 1), 3rd string as the B, 4 string as the G and 5th string as the D. They next to the same in tension and string size to the Pepe Romero's but cost only $12aud so a cheaper way to give this tuning a try. Take a little longer to settle in but otherwise feel the same to me. Have a concert on the way so going to try them on it when it arrives.
