  • Have you ever heard an electric ukulele through an Octave fuzz?
    Why is one of these guitars small?
    How big really IS Andy?

    Looks like a guitarra baiana from Brazil. Once you find what I like to call the “ mole’ “ sounds on a ukulele, it takes you to a different level. The fade and the finish on both instruments is very nice. Good playing too.

    In my old band I played an electric baritone uke (around 19" scale). Just like a guitar missing two strings. When the band started it was a bluegrass/americana thing and I played a soprano uke that I put metal strings on (sounds like a cross between a banjo and a mando). Eventually I just got an electric uke and customized the hell out of it.
    NOTE: You can find tenor sized electric ukes (like the Flight) for around $100 on Amazon, ZZSounds, Walmart, etc. But an electric baritone is a much better option for a guitar player.

    Ukulele player here! Although I have been subbed to your roasted maple channel for sometime, I've only just happened upon this video. I was curious to find out what a guitar player would think of an electric uke. Glad you liked it!
    Interesting points about the setup. I've read plenty about how some people have struggled with that and finished up sending them back because they couldn't get them set up correctly.

    I am a new subscriber Andy and I love what you do as well as your manner and sense of humor. I'm a little confused on this one though. I'm seriously considering purchasing a JS 450 so very much value your opinion. At the 17:21 mark of the video you talk about the guitar working fantastically, and that it is brilliant! Then later on at about 18:27 you say it just doesn't feel that great. I understand your concern about the sound and the pickups but it just gets confusing when you mention that it's brilliant in terms of construction and playability and then say it just doesn't feel that great. Is there something beyond the pickups and cheap strings that you feel we should know about? Not a criticism .... just seeking clarification. Thanks!

    • @TroyNaumu808
      @TroyNaumu808 2 роки тому +1

      @@TheGuitarGeek i ended up not getting the Pathfinder and not get the DiMarzio pickups. I got the Centurian instead. It sounded great out of the box with little setup. The pickups are nice. i did get the strings. That was really the only tweaking needed out of the box. I lucked out. As I know that sometimes even with the big name companies once in a while a junk one slips thru the cracks and gets by quality control (if any). I play it out of my Vox AD30VT or my Boss Katana thru my pedalboard.
