Let me clarify some points: There are Hulusi in the keys of(that I know of and own): Bass C Scale: G A B C D E G A Drones: A and E Bass D Scale: A B C# D E F# AB Drones: B and F# Eb Scale: Bb C D Eb F G Bb C Drones: C and G F Scale: C D E F G A C D Drones: D and A G Scale: D E F# G A B D E Drones: E and B A Scale: E F# G# A B C# E F# Drones: F# and C# Bb Scale: F G A Bb C D F G Drones: G and D C (soprano) Scale: G A B C D E G A Drones: A and E D (soprano) Scale: A B C# D E F# AB Drones: B and F# You can add the 4th note of the major scale by closing all the holes including the thumb except the top finger note so a full scale should look like this: (Ø is closed and O is open) Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø O Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø O Ø O Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø O O Ø Ø Ø Ø O Ø O O Ø Ø Ø O O Ø O O Ø Ø O O O Ø O O Ø O O O O Ø O O B A B C D E F G A (C major Scale as reference) Hulusi are aerophones (they’re related to the harmonica) and therefore have 2 or 3 brass reeds on the end of their pipes that are inserted into the gourd
I discovered this instrument awhile ago and became enchanted. I had to get one for myself but I wanted to do some more research. It's really difficult to find good hulusi resources. Thank you for this video!
Oh! We did not know that, we knew the word "yeet" as a current social media slang where it is associated with throwing. Fun little fact we learnt today from our viewer! (Thank's for the little compliment too)
Very interesting! I tried a hulusi a while ago (a cheaper one) and fell in love. Here in Germany it's not easy to get informations about the different types of this instrument/different materials, or to find a seller. So ... Good to know that in the future I can get one at your store. :) By the way ... I would have appreciated a sound example of all the higher notes of each hulusi. Because to my knowledge the higher notes often sound not so clear as the low ones, at least on cheaper hulusis, and it would have been interesting to hear how this hulusis sound in the higher octave.
The Hulusi I have says it's in the key of G. But the notes w all holes covered start at D E F# G A B D E. So if I buy a HUlusi in F will the notes be pretty much the C scale: C D E F G A C D?
I received a halusi as a gift. It is used. I can't get it to play a scale. I thought maybe it was a reed problem and when I looked at the reed the point end pointed down. I had looked at a video on adjusting the reed and the point ended pointed up. Could this be the problem?
You didn’t mention anything about the reed..Does it need to be replaced like a sax? is it cane or a plastic? What other Key are available? Does it require much maintenance?Thank you for the presentation.
i JUST RECEIVED THIS INSTRUMENT TODAY LOOKING TO LEARN HOW TO PLAY IT. I WISH IT HAD THE TRADITIONAL CHINESE CHARACTERS ENGRAVED ON IT. COOLS LOOKING CAE IT CAME IN THO. IT'S HARD TO TELL IF ITS REAL BAMBOO OR NOT. BUT FOR LESS THAN $40.00 USD MY GUESS IS ITS PLASTIC AND MADE TO LOOK LIKE A GOARD AND BAMBOO. BOUGHT THROUGH EMBEED ON FACEBOOK AD. MAYBE YOU KNOW. LOVE THE SOUND.

I have a vertical bawu and I can't get much sound out of it, and the registers sometimes change and I don't know why. It sounds close to this timbre, though!

HAPPY NEW YEAR !
Thanks to the three of you for this recording. I’m in France and I’ve just bought a hulusi. I have now to learn how to play it.
Let me clarify some points: There are Hulusi in the keys of(that I know of and own):
Bass C
Scale: G A B C D E G A
Drones: A and E
Bass D
Scale: A B C# D E F# AB
Drones: B and F#
Eb
Scale: Bb C D Eb F G Bb C
Drones: C and G
F
Scale: C D E F G A C D
Drones: D and A
G
Scale: D E F# G A B D E
Drones: E and B
A
Scale: E F# G# A B C# E F#
Drones: F# and C#
Bb
Scale: F G A Bb C D F G
Drones: G and D
C (soprano)
Scale: G A B C D E G A
Drones: A and E
D (soprano)
Scale: A B C# D E F# AB
Drones: B and F#
You can add the 4th note of the major scale by closing all the holes including the thumb except the top finger note so a full scale should look like this:
(Ø is closed and O is open)
Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø O
Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø O Ø O
Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø O O
Ø Ø Ø Ø O Ø O O
Ø Ø Ø O O Ø O O
Ø Ø O O O Ø O O
Ø O O O O Ø O O
B A B C D E F G A (C major Scale as reference)
Hulusi are aerophones (they’re related to the harmonica) and therefore have 2 or 3 brass reeds on the end of their pipes that are inserted into the gourd

Thank you for your comment!
I picked up my Hulusi from 8 years ago I'm glad I decided to get back into it
Thank you so much!! I love the distinct sound, and I really appreciate you folks going over the different types of materials hulusi are made of.
hahahaha. I thought yeet was something southerners came up with. He's cute!

Perfect this answered all my questions i had
Yay! Cheers :)
Problem those sandalwood rosewood models C/b are $128
these videos are a lot of funnnn
Glad you found them enjoyable! Do subscribe and look forward to many more videos from us :)
Love the drone sound in the Hulusi. Do you carry the F, and does it come with the 2 tones?
The Hulusi I have says it's in the key of G. But the notes w all holes covered start at D E F# G A B D E. So if I buy a HUlusi in F will the notes be pretty much the C scale: C D E F G A C D?
Yes that's basically how it works :)
How long does a hulusi reed last?
I received a halusi as a gift. It is used. I can't get it to play a scale. I thought maybe it was a reed problem and when I looked at the reed the point end pointed down. I had looked at a video on adjusting the reed and the point ended pointed up. Could this be the problem?
很好的表现
谢谢你！:)
You didn’t mention anything about the reed..Does it need to be replaced like a sax? is it cane or a plastic? What other Key are available? Does it require much maintenance?Thank you for the presentation.
