Hey, yeah. In addition to a couple of years of guitar I've played soprano and concert for a few months each too. While I liked the idea of them and the sound they made my fingers are seriously just too large for the frets. So a few weeks ago I picked up a pretty cheap baritone Mahalo for £50.

The main differences as have already been pointed out are the different tunings, the fact that baritone is much larger, blah blah. Really, that's it. The bottom strings (D and G) on mine are metal whereas the top two are nylon. In terms of sound you're getting something that's a mixture between guitar and smaller ukes. Physically I enjoy the baritone more because it's a bit more substantial to hold, but that's personal preference.

For anyone interested in how a baritone sounds in standard tuning here's a simple version of Tom Waits' song "Better Off Without A Wife" that I recorded a couple of weeks ago nice and quick.
