Brüko Longneck Soprano 2023, wild maple
Peter Geerdts Soprano, 2021, tygre myrtle/maple
1950s Martin Style 0, mahogany
Dirk Jungbluth Soprano 2023/24, spruce/rosewood

    Thank you for making these videos! Can you tell me your opinion about ‘’arched backs’’ (baby bumps 😂) on ukuleles? I’m trying to decide between a Brüko S001 or S001W. Is it a benefit for sound projection and/or playing comfort?

    • @JanHaasler
      @JanHaasler 2 місяці тому

      Thanks for asking and your encouragement. To me arched back add a little depth/snap to the sound BUT I can not tell it for each model as a basic rule. I had flat models with an arched back that sounded more barky as an other one but then the material also effects everthing too. Recently I gained a cedar top/rosewood back and sides model with a dlat back and is my boomiest model. I would summarize the arched back Trends to add a small amount of bark to the instrument but I would not weicht that statement 100%. 😅 I hope that helps a bit.... Best, Jan

    • @JanHaasler
      @JanHaasler 3 місяці тому

      Hello, thank you for reaching out to me. I would summarize every Brüko sounds like a Brüko ukulele. Within that tonal "family" (due to the way of construction) are differences and even two maple S001 models do not have to Sound "The same". I think the second S001 demoed here is build with a certain chunk of wood from a tree Mr Pfeiffer calls "wild" maple. The maple longneck is built from this wood two. Lovely. Recently I found out a 1920s Oscar Schmidt Soprano - which I will demo soon - has a sound very close to what Brüko sounds like. They started building in the 1930s and I think get better and at the best point with Mrs and Mr Pfeiffer building them.

I don’t aspire to pick the same as he does, but rather adapt those songs to less complex picking and strumming with thumb/index. You do this admirably! Do you have other videos/resources for this? Thanks so much!👍

      @JanHaasler 5 місяців тому

      Hello and thanks for watching. They mostly have the same strings. Most Brüko sopranos have the Hannabach Goldin or Pyramid flourcarbons (both Brüko factory strings). The Mele and Martin Style 0 are strung with "The Tin Man's Magic Ukulele Strings". To me the difference is very subtile, more a factor how they feel. The difference between Hanbabach and Pyramid is detectable but only on the same instrument compared one take after the other. Best, Jan
