You might recall something from the news 4 years ago...

Thanks! No issues with pole pieces, aside from the aesthetics of not lining up under the strings, there is no audible effect (the magnetic field of pickup poles is sensitive to vertical adjustment far more than lateral).

Fairfield Barber Shop OD MXR Carbon Copy delay Styrmon Flint for the reverb Strymon Iridium - tweed setting, middle speaker setting, low drive

Thanks - scale length is 19" on this one.

I haven’t tried one. The strings would have to be very thick to work I think… not sure it’s feasible as an electric.

@@sodoelectrics272 Kala is doing electric bass ukes but they were Not so cool as urs. Im in love with this one in your Video.

@@ghust3427 Thanks! The Kala ones are traditional acoustic strings with a microphone or piezo pickup -- the ones I do use magnetic pickups (and steel strings) - which is why I don't think my design would work for a U-bass... the string gauge would need to be massive, or the strings would have to be so loosely tension that they'd be floppy and unplayable... (I think). But i can look into it, maybe there is a way to make it work...

@@sodoelectrics272 they did New ones with p bass pickups. Found it on the thomann online shop

@@sodoelectrics272 they did some with a p bass pickup. But they r rlly ugly

Thanks!

Thanks!

Just improvising...

Tom Cruise questions his life decisions.

SoDo Electrics - these are handmade by me.

Hi - I build these with the strings a bit farther apart than on a guitar, so perhaps it would be easier. The cost varies based on the quality of pickups you want to use (the one in this video has quite expensive pickups!). In general, the total cost ends up between $800-1200.

@@sodoelectrics272 Thank you!

Thanks

@@sodoelectrics272 What price are these ukes approximately!

@@alexbrown6624 This one is for sale for $1000. Most of the ones I build are in the 800-1200 range - it depends a lot of the pickups and the finish you are looking for.

What do you think of the solid body ukes that Flight are now doing pick ups and parts l picked up the Vanguard for £280 ?

Hi - if it's a tenor it will be GCEA, if it's a baritone DGBE.

Thanks! The pickups are from a PRS guitar, so you’ll get a similar sound.

Scintillating observation.

Thanks

It's a modified Tele half bridge, so the strings can be spaced out more than a cigar box one.

Thanks!

Regular guitar pickups are the way to go -- you know what you are getting! The strings will not center over the pole pieces, but that it won't affect it sonically, just visually (and you can always use lipsticks, or rails, or firebird style pickups to make pole piece moot if you want). Plus, I kind of like the look of the full sized pickup on a small body -- kind of a big eyed puppy vibe.

I haven't even taken the pickups out of the packaging yet, so I have no idea if they're any good. But as long as it sounds good that's all I need. I'm building a tenor electric uke with a solid epoxy body. But my neck has to be custom. I already own one of the Flight Centurion electric tenor so I'm basing my measurements on that. I'm nervous about the neck. The last time I did a custom one I glued it, but I might opt for a bolt on option so I can put a shim in to fix any angle changes on the action @@sodoelectrics272

I use a “hot rail” 6 string pickup for electric tenor guitars so I don’t have to worry about string spacing.

I did. (SoDo Electrics, Montreal)

@@sodoelectrics272 Oh that's awesome. If you ever sell a 4 string baritone guitar, lmk I'd love one.

@@sodoelectrics272 I just checked out your site. Do you do custom jobs? I find that some necks on tenor guitars are a bit too thin for many people. Also, not to criticize, but you need to punch up your site a little bit. Tell people more about your company, what you do, what you build, etc. Not a criticism, but merely a suggestion. You might get a lot more customers. You did a nice job with the guitar you're playing in that video. I'll bet more people who are interested in tenor guitars would visit your site if you included more information. Just sayin'....

Thanks!

Thanks!

how do I buy one of your electric baritone ukuleles? There are only a handful of them manufactured as you probably already know. I really like this one.

@@marcusdale8476You can email me sodoelectrics@gmail.com I have a couple already built for sale, but mostly I do custom commissions.

Thanks!
