💡 Pro Tip: String Changes and Bridge Pins on the LO-WA
Roos LO-WA uses bridge pins to secure the strings – a solution common on exclusive acoustic guitars, but a bit rarer on ukuleles. This gives the instrument a clean and stylish look, but it requires understanding how the mechanism works.
How it works: Instead of tying the string around the bridge itself, it is held in place under the top with a knot. A bridge pin is then pressed down into the hole to secure the string and knot against the inside of the top.
The art of making the right knot: Unlike steel strings on guitars, which almost always have a pre-made metal ball end, on ukulele nylon strings, you have to tie this knot yourself.
-
The Balancing Act: The knot must be large enough to stay fixed under the top, but at the same time not so large that you can't actually push the string and knot down through the hole during installation.
-
Tip: It's perfectly normal for a newly installed string to "pop out" the first time you tune it. It often takes a couple of attempts for the knot to sit perfectly.
The Secret: Metal Beads On the factory-mounted strings of the LO-WA, there is a small metal bead that acts as an artificial "ball end". By using this bead, you don't need to make a large knot, which makes installation much easier.
A good piece of advice: Save these metal beads when you change strings! You can easily thread them onto your new strings and reuse them. This makes the next string change both quicker and safer.

Roos LO-WA Baritone Ukulele – Upgraded Quality for Depth and Dynamics
The Roos LO-WA is built with a clear ambition: to deliver an instrument where aesthetics meet acoustics, offering a quality that rivals renowned brands like Kala and Flight. Compared to our LO-MA model, the LO-WA represents a significant step up in material selection and finish.
High-Quality Wood for a Rich and Complex Sound:
The LO-WA's body is built with a Solid Spruce top – a classic tonewood known for its rich overtones, broad dynamic response, and ability to develop a deeper tone over time. The back and sides are made of Walnut, which contributes a balanced tone and a striking, unique wood grain pattern.
This combination produces a bright, full, and dynamic sound suitable for a wide range of genres, which only improves the more the ukulele is played. The baritone size offers a fuller expression and a guitar-like feel, ideal for transition players and those who love the depth of the bass register.
Playability and Reliability:
The Roos LO-WA is designed with a focus on comfort and ease of use. It features a comfortable, stable neck and a construction that ensures good intonation. A major advantage of this model is its rapid tuning stability; you can tune it up and start playing almost immediately. In addition, the solid construction ensures that the intonation remains excellent even high up on the fretboard.
Included Accessories: Upgraded Protection
As part of the LO-WA's premium positioning, it comes complete with an upgraded, exclusive gig bag from the manufacturer LongTeam. This bag is extra padded for superior protection and features a design that matches the instrument's high standard, ensuring both comfortable transport and a long lifespan for your ukulele.
