Guitar String On Baritone Ukulele

This was part of the package for the GL1 Guitalele - Nylon-String Guitar Ukulele (Natural) by Yamaha. It was all given as a gift and well received!

I sing and play a baritone ukulele at senior living centers, many of which have no sound systems at all. The Pyle Pro Amp system is perfect. I have a contact mike on my Ike that I plug into the mike input of the amp. The volume is adjustable and the sound is strong and clear, with no hum or feedback. I use the wireless headset for my voice, whose volume is independently adjustable. It’s a little tricky to adjust the headset for the most natural sound (without howling or a tubby, echoing sound), but once you do, it is stable and sounds fine. I typically run on AC line power, but have run on the recharable battery on occasion, and it worked perfectly throughout a 1.5 hour set. The bass range of output is relatively weak, as might be expected given the size of the unit. But given the features, and performance, it is a tremendous bargain!!!!!

The GBU4101 baritone Ukulele Bag is perfect for what I put it to use as. As most popular Ukulele on in the market is the Soprano, most of the gear and accessories are for that smaller model. Finding a good bag at a good price to accommodate an instrument of 30 in length was a rather trying process and I am glad I found the GBU4101 Bag. I am so pleased with this bag from B&H that I have told several of my friends that also have instruments requiring a bag of 30 inside length. Check out my photos to see how well the instrument fits.

This is a beautiful ukulele. I'm a novice at ukulele (although I've played guitar before) and want to try learning this. The first few songs I've learned have a nice tone. The tuning doesn't seem quite as stable as my steel-stringed guitar, so I need to tune it a bit more at the start of each session, although that may be something that's inherent with nylon strings. Regarding the strings, though, the feel of them is nice, and my fingers aren't all calloused yet, the way they get when I play the guitar frequently. As for price, you can't beat this, especially with the package deal. Get it.

My first nylon string guitar of this type and I'm absolutely amazed at how nice this is. It's a very light yet solidly built guitar. Fit and finish is stunning. Playability is easily comparable to guitars of this type that are more than twice the price. Very pleased with this guitar.

Works very well on my Cordoba nylon string classical guitar. Firm pressure, grip is effective but doesn't damage anything. Easy to use.

I'm a jazz guitarist playing an 8-string classical guitar that goes higher and lower than a regular guitar. It has a K & K pickup and I my amp is a JBL EON powered speaker, which, for this instrument sounds better than any jazz guitar amp. I have used the Zoom A-3 preamp as well as an L.R. Baggs Venue DI. They are both very good but I'd say the Grace Alix is the best I've found. It has great features you can read about but I must say that the sound of my guitar with the EQ set flat is strong, clear and simply amazing! It's very well thought out. Worth the price.

5 stars! Stable and very easy to adjust level with slider on.

I was amazed at how nice this ukulele sounds! Soooooo sweeeet!

A quick way to not string cables across the stage.
