Prelude for Guitalele - Classical (ish) Bach

[jwnicholson]

Continuing on in my series of 3D printed ukuleles, I've finally finished my improved super soprano guitalele, with metal frets, a truss rod, and new full color tops.

For the demo song I chose Prelude 1, by J.S. Bach from the Well Tempered Klavier. This is one of my favorite piano pieces, and when played on classical guitar, it sounds amazing. Unfortunately, I am not nearly a good enough guitarist to pull it off. So I dumbed it down and arranged it for 3 note chords to make it simple enough for even me to play. I hope you enjoy the guitaleles and the recording.

And, if you have a 3D printer, you can download the files and print your own super soprano guitalele : https://makerworld.com/en/models/295319 ... Id-3309239

Congratulations on the piece, playing, and the ukulele builds!

Bach's Prelude No. 1 played on the ukulele – truly fantastic. Great presentation.
At the same time, you're encouraging people to build a ukulele like that
themselves – brilliant!

Incidentally, that would also be a great idea for all those suffering from GAS:
Instead of downloading thousands of new plugins, you could build your own
ukulele!

Played on your own ukulele, Bach’s Prelude No. 1 takes on a truly unique
character!
