Exactly and that’s why I probably didn’t release it when I did it but I guess the point of my videos besides trying to make the music I feel and hopefully reach folks is to also inspire to experiment.

And now at almost 61 I think “if not now when ?” Thanks so much for watching and your thoughtful comment. ❤

Visually, I like the one with the classical headstock best, then the tenor, then the blue one. However, sound wise, I like the blue one best with the tenor being a close second, and the classical-style in third. Honestly though, they all look and sound pretty darn great. Vangoa is making some nice instruments for a good price. Great video!

Synido seems to make good stuff. I’m glad they sent you this. I like how compact it is but it seems like you’ll always need a few adapters with you due to the 1/8” TRS jacks. Still, I could see it being useful for mobile audio.

Yes agreed. I want to suggest that instead of that hard wired male lead. They use a usbC to lightning combo or just like it female so that all you need is the cord (either usb c to usbc or usbc to lightning. ) something like that.
