This is an ukulele with eight strings. But as you can see, it's not an eight string ukulele. At least not in the traditional eight string tenor way. This is a harp ukulele. It has four bass strings that are not fretted. And then you have a regular tenor ukulele. (tuned with a Low G). Now most people will have no desire to attempt this instrument, but in case you are wondering, I can tell you is this.- The Harp Ukulele is not an impractical instrument. It is comfortable to hold and play. The ukulele is small enough for this design to actually work! (as opposed to the more well-known and less practical Harp Guitar). This can be used in a number of different ways. James Hill, who was just acquainting himself with the instrument, uses it here for a nice fingerstyle ans does Pete Howlette in the next video.

So if your ready to get something truly different and awe-inspiring. Something visually artful and musically enjoyable. An instrument that took some serious skill to build, especially so clean and refined! If you are enthusiastic enough to experiment with your music and economically endowed, then my best advice would be to get this uniquely wonderful instrument. Only 12 in America and they won't be made again. Only two will have our quality control and setup.
