Hi Steve, Do you think you could swap the strings to DGBE for a tenor banjolele (Pepe Romero Baby Baritone strings) and that it would sound OK? Thoughts appreciated. Cheers

Hello, i bought a second hand guitar and the bridge came off after arriving 😂, i just bought a titebond glue and some sandpaper, can i fix it myself without a clamp? I have some weight to put on the top of the bridge, around 5L of water. And should i polish the wood until it's smooth? Or should i left some texture to make the area bigger for the glue to stick to? Do you have any tips? Thanks in advance!

Just realized mine doesn't have the slotted stock like yours. Also not a fan of the whale and starfish. Have actually thought about ways of covering them up.

Hey Steve. I know it's been a while since you posted this but I have a question. This Kmise model is my favorite baritone uke for some reason. Fit, feel, action. I know it's not the highest quality, but I like it. Have you ever come across any other brand/model that has the same or similar feel or maybe it's shape? Especially when strumming? I don't do much finger-picking - primarily strumming.

The way you described this guitar, sounds like they used a lot of fancy words for cheap materials.
@stevesstrings5243 12 күн бұрын
HPL may be cheaper than luthier-grade wood, but that doesn't necessarily mean it is "cheap". Ultimately, it comes down to what you are looking for and assessing if the instruments meets your needs. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! Thanks or watching and commenting!

I picked one up at a thrift store for $10. I was wondering why my chords were sounding so horrible! Is it possible to fix the issue with being out of tune with itself? How involved is that? If it's possible to fix something, I want to. But I'm also realizing that if it's too involved, I won't do it. Thanks.
@stevesstrings5243 12 күн бұрын
If it is out of tune at every fret, it is probably because they put the bridge in the wrong place. You would need to measure the scale length and check the fret positions against the correct positions to figure out if the problem is more than just the bridge position (E.g. are the frets in the wrong places) Anything is fixable, if you know what you are doing, LOL! Fixing it may be an entertaining project, but it may not be worth your time. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Thanks for sharing. I have a battle in my head about should I make the lid or bottom be the sound board. Bottom usually wins since I get nice graphics on the back and can more easily work on the insides... good choice. I mostly lead the neck from the corner o f rectangular boxes to get finger space similar to cut away built guitars

I think that's the same mandolin they sent to Maria. It looks really nice. I Like the finish and all the little details. You did alright for never having played a mandolin before. It looks like a great value. Nice review.
@stevesstrings5243 28 күн бұрын
Thanks! Yep! It's the same model that Maria unboxed. I'm a bit late in posting the review because I had a cold which resulted in laryngitis. I had to wait for my voice to return. To play it, I had to figure out what chord shapes I could manage quickly! After playing the guitar, the mandolin neck seems so small! This mandolin is typical Vangoa quality and value! It is a good option for beginners who want the classic look of the F-style mandolin.

This is a guitar, but the gentleman plays it as though it were a baritone uke. I wonder how he would play a four string electric bass? 🤔 Honestly, i do appreciate the time he took, the production quality, and thoroughness of his review. But I simply couldn't resist the opening statement.
