Aloha My Braddah!!! Well, small world that I should come for a visit and find you're playing an Ukulele! LOL. ;-D Interesting that you tuned it to a guitar. You know, I enjoyed your performance. I never could get used to a pick, but then again, my thing is arpeggio style. (guitar). I'd love to walk the scales as good as you though. I played faithfully from 7-23 yrs old... lost the music in me though after my first hubby died. And now, me being bedriddin (had accident 15 yrs ago.) makes it difficult to play. Once we get a recliner though, I've felt led to pick my music back up. When I do, I think I'll take advantqge of your teachings my friend. Wow... sure is interesting the way God works, yes? LOL Take care, stay safe and aloha 'oe. I look forward to your videos. God bless, - AuntyKeli ;-)
Wow what a beast. Looks beautiful. I am just over 6ft with large hands. I am unsure whether to get a Tenor or Baritone. I want to get a tenor as the strings are universal with the soprano and concert. With the Baritone, the notes change. Also if I get a Baritone first, it will hard for me to convert to playing a tenor if I wanted to buy one later. What do you advise? Is a tenor too small for me? Also which one is more likely to have a pickup where I can plug in an amp?
You can buy GCEA strings for baritone i'm sure. You'll have to look it up, there's a big difference in size between the tenor and the baritone. The DGBE and GCEA use the same chord shapes as they're a transposition of each other (putting a capo on the fifth fret on a DGBE will give you a GCEA tuning). Hope this helps.
+gantswood - (I realise this is an old post, generic advise) If you want to play /ukulele/ then get a tenor, the scale length is about right for a guitarist (like playing up the neck with a capo at 5th) , a soprano (std) or concert will be too small. The re-entrant tuning is important. A lot of uke players just like to chug chords out, you can cover two or even three strings with the tip of one finger (two finger chords) but a guitarist will want to do widdly bits and needs a longer scale length, the 17-in tenor. The 20-in baritone is more like a 4-string guitar (the four top strings) and you've got that covered with a regular guitar for the present. Tuning of soprano, concert and tenor is the same gCEA except string length and weight is different, concert strings won't fit a tenor, they're too short and tenor strings are too thick for a soprano (except banjo-uke, it's the tailpiece). There are many alt-tunings incl 5ths like a mandolin which needs a special string set. An acoustic uke will be 'better' than an electro-acoustic at the same price. Learn the instrument on a cheaper student model before worrying about an amp. Neck profile varies a lot, too many are thin and tiny so find one that fits the paw.
What gauge strings does it use, please? I have a childs size solid bodied electric guitar with the right scale length but not sure what strings to use. I believe regular electric guitar strings will do but not sure which gauges.
Folks are asking, "Where can I get one?", "so hard to find..." They're not! - Eastman guitars has them on sale right now... shop.myrareguitars.com/collections/everything/products/mrg-baritone-ukulele
Sounds like a guitar !! But has a National Steel/Dobro tone going on as well in places. Distortion kills the uke completely . Might as well just take the last two strings off a guitar !!
Nice. I subscribed. Beautiful playing on a fine instrument. Checkout my home modified cheapo acoustic steel string resonator baritone. I play a tasty little piece on it. I ALSO PLAY AN EPIPHONE 4 STRING MADOBIRD, AND ELECTRIC 8 STRING BARITONE UKE. OOPS didn't know my caps were on. Later Mann Raptor.
That’s very cool. Want something like this badly.
Beautiful sound,beautiful craftsmanship,awesome sounds coming out of that work of art...
Hi I'm a luthier in the making and this is fine craftsmanship! I'd love to get one someday, definitely incredible!

Eleuke makes a baritone electric solid body with tenor-sized body BUT the current version uses rechargeable batteries which many folks may be wary of.
