I don't understand what is the reason to by baritone ukulele? Isn't it better to buy simple acoustic guitar?

Check Hofner basses! They have examples!

Hi everyone. I have built my third guitar and entered it into the Great Guitar Build-off 2021. If anyone is interested, the link to my contest video which includes some build footage is here: https://youtu.be/KXbQpdRJGUY Thats so good!!!! But I prefer HSS configuration rather than SSS (because of i...

Make your own? We have had a lot of previous discussions here on the process. I have made a few and its not too difficult once you get a few issues worked out. Ken Macay used to make and sell laminated plates. You might want to contact him. https://www.kenmckayguitars.com/order Hi! Can I find any v...

I recently constructed (and attempted to play) a primitive bowed lyre called a "Tagelharpa". The construction couldn't be simpler or more primitive. I haven't tried making homemade horse hair strings yet (I'm using gut) but I did make the horehair bow. There is an active Tagelharpa commun...

Nobody knows?

I finished this instrument about a month ago now. It's an oud arbi, which is a traditional type of oud from North-west Africa (it's played mainly in Morocco, Tunisia and Alergia). It has 4 courses instead of the 6 courses of the standard oud (also called oud sharqi, meaning eastern oud for comparis...

Is it technicly possible?

Hi everybody! I have Fender Squier Affinity Strat but few days ago I've broken the neck of it and searching for neck from some squier/fender guitars. But as option I'm looking for replacement and I started to think about PRS guitar. I've never played on those guitars. Does onyone have an experience ...

If I recall correctly it was a guy's name but, who knows at this point, it's been years since it's even crossed my mind. Th...

That's amazing!!!! Will you upload some video or audio files as example of how it sounds? I'm very curious!

Our school district kicks off the year with two or three days of enrichment classes. Today, I helped three middle schoolers walk away with simple, homely but functional banjos. We had three hours to stretch the head, attach the neck and install tuners. The results were ok, but the reactions were gr...

I had an experience only with shipping from Germany to US. I've made an order on thomann.de shop. Maybe you can ask them as consultation about shipping (export@thomann.de)
