I love to play the guitar, but this is my new favorite instrument by far. I see it as a similar, but yet very distinct instrument. I love the feel of the guitarlele with it's small size and light action. It is much easier to carry around and play anywhere, and I love the light action and small size which makes it easier for me and my small hands to play. Plus, it is great for teaching early music lessons. My youth group kids, as well as my biological kids all love it! It seems to have sparked a whole new level of excitement for learning to play with the youth praise band. :)

[@Ukelikethepros]

I love everything you said in this comment, I think it’s dead on. I have also found much inspiration from it. It also works well if others are playing ukulele and you play guitalele. Which guitalele do you have?

[@successful4u1]

@@Ukelikethepros, My daughter plays ukulele as her primary instrument. And, I have several kids in the youth group who are interested in learning both ukulele as well as guitarlele. So, your videos are super helpful and I am getting a great deal out of your guitarlele course. I personally have the Yamaha GL1. I have bought two more of them one for my son and one for a young lady in the youth praise band. I have a dream of getting a Koaloha like the one you use with the pick up. I have to save up for that one though :) Thank you for all you do!!!

[@Ukelikethepros]

@@successful4u1 Thanks for sharing this. The Yamaha GL1 is a good instrument, I have one as well. The nice thing about the KoAloha Opio with Acacia wood is that even though it's expensive about $750 it's a better price point than the KoAloha Koa D6 which they don't make anymore which would be well over $1000, probaby about $1200. It's great that your getting all your kids into playing. Keep up the great work you are doing.

[@lauradarshan3405]

I've played the guitar for years and have only recently picked up the ukulele. This seems like the best of both worlds. Small, portable but with the same chords as the guitar. I do love the depth of sound that the guitar you are playing has. Not all nylon stringed guitars sound this rich. I retire soon... I might have to research this out and add it to my mix!

[@Ukelikethepros]

Yes, they are great. Guitars do sound fuller and this one I'm using is an Aria Classical guitar made in Spain. The best sounding guitaleles I have found are the KoAloha and the Romero Creations. Yes, I play both of them and sell them at my store.ukelikethepros.com but I have played many of the ones on the market and they are both great.

[@chrisseclark]

As an elderly Guitalele beginner, I have been greatly encouraged by your on-line demonstrations - thank you very much, Terry. I have progressed over the last few months by following your advice. The acquisition of an acoustic guitar (vintage, Japanese-made) has led me to progress on that instrument in tandem. In considering the difference between the two instruments, I would say the Guitalele sounds sweet and satisfactory - and is eminently portable. However, the guitar has the edge when it comes to sound quality due to the plangent amplification offered by the larger body. I intend to practice daily on the smaller instrument and swap to the larger one when I want to indulge myself!

Good luck Friend.

[@tylermarchbank7425]

[@Ijcarter1962]

I think the guitar sounds fuller and the guitalele is mellower and more uke sounding. Your demo makes clear the differences between the two and that they are two distinct instruments. I might have to get a guitalele and try it out. Great video!

[@Ukelikethepros]

Thank you this is great to hear. I just got back from Maui and I only took my guitalele. It was a perfect for the plane and a great beach instrument that is easy to take along. I also wrote new songs every morning sitting on the beach and it worked for that as well.

Terry was in a music store today sniffing around the Acoustic Guitar section.After playing Ukulele Baritone Ukulele and Guitarlele,I picked up the guitar and all the fears from the past hit me again.I tried 4 times over my life to learn music on the guitar and failed miserably. i am now i think an intermediate player because of the 4 string to 6 string progression.Thank you for offering the course at precisely the right time.Great song by the way.. think i recognize it..lol

So much fun playing D cross harp blues along with my Guitalele .Great Presentation and observations.

[@deeman524]

From my experience, the Guitalele has a warmer softer sound, which I love better

[@NeoArtMusic]

I play the Guitalele in a punk ukulele band! I installed a pick up in it, and I love it! I don't play it very subtly, Whacking it with a pick and playing the odd solo's! It doesn't take long to finger a 'C' chord and automatically think 'F' so that I can jam with someone who is on guitar, and translate their chords instantly. although, I do picture and target the 12th fret area of guitar for solos (7th on Guitalele)

[@drcule]

Hi Terry... Great video as always... I have an Uke and a guitarlele... When I purchased the guitarlele I tuned like guitar on the 5th fret... But when start to play rock songs looks it sounds very high... So I tried a few things and found that tuning it like a guitar on the 3rd fret sounds better, at least yo me...

[@pastore0506]

Having watched this video I can hear the difference between the guitar with a capo and the guitarlele. I had to give up the guitar due to shoulder problems and took up the ukulele which I love. I am not at this moment considering another instrument but if I were, I would consider a guitarlele.

[@Ukelikethepros]

Thank you for sharing this story, many people, mainly guitarists, don’t understand the problems many people have playing a full sized acoustic guitar. I’m happy you found the ukulele and I think you will enjoy the guitarlele once you try one.

[@dimiaraujo90]

On the guitalele we can use much more of the traditional Ukulele right hand (picking hand) techniques, which are very different from the picking on a guitar, either fingerstyle or with a plectrum. Also, Ukes usually are made from heavier (more dense) and kinda "softer" tonewoods, like mahogany, koa, or walnut, which sound totally different from Sitka Spruce, Pine, Rosewood, or even Cedar, usually used on guitars (which are much harder, and even if/when they're heavier like Rosewood, they still fell kinda a little "brittle").

[@JJ_TheGreat]

Thank you for that but of information!

[@IntoTheOutside000]

As a musician how two instruments are played physically is more relevant to their similarity than the sound. Because is has the exact same relative tuning as a guitar just transposed up a perfect fourth, all the muscle memory from guitar applies immediately. Any musician can find the root on any fret board and go from there. The open position chord names are simply a fourth higher at the root but remain major or minor, not a big deal. They have acoustic electric ones so you can amplify it as much as you need to too.

[@ricespana]

Great job! That’s a great mic you have!

[@jessicarinks528]

I picked up a guitarlele so that I could practice guitar but have a smaller instrument to carry around. Thing is, now i LOVE my guitarlele and kind of don't want to play my guitar as much. I'm in a bluegrass band, so this might be a problem lol! Thanks for the videS!

[@julesd9784]

Jessica Rinks hey! i was wondering if the guitalele makes it harder to play because of the tuning. i wanted to buy one because they’re smaller than guitar and seem really cool, but i was wondering if it would be better to learn guitar?

[@janerabanal340]

@@julesd9784 I'm having the same dilemma. I do like to play along with friends sometimes so that could be a challenge. I'm thinking about a baritone guitalele which would be tuned in E, but the sound isn't as distinct and not quite as compact. What to do...

I am blown away by this thing. I have not heard a guitalele until now. It has a smaller sound, duh, but a good and full sound. I'm definitely going to go shopping for one. I can see this displacing the guitars in my life. I don't 'play' a guitar in the full sense, I just use one to self accompany for singing. The guitar is becoming more difficult for me to play as I get older and I can see this little guy moving right in. Thanks for your videos.

I've tried playing my classical guitar since starting the ukulele about 2 years ago, and it feels SO large and bulky in my arms (and I am a pretty big guy - 6'1"). I'm considering getting a guitalele and just playing some regular guitar music from tabs. I know that it will be a 4th higher than the written sheet music, but since I play solo fingerstyle WITHOUT singing, it really doesn't matter. Thanks for the very useful information.

Honestly Terry, I cannot tell a difference in the sound between the guitar with the capo, and the guitaralele.

[@david_pilkington_music]

The comparison here is between 2 nylon strung instruments. I have a Guitalele and a steel strung acoustic guitar and the sound difference between the two is a lot greater (even at the 5th fret). So having a Guitalele gives me a totally different sound.

[@jim894]

I play a 6 string baritone and a guitar as well as use. I can play my 6 string baratone in EADAGBE with hard tension strings but if I capo it at fifth fret it sounds similar to my tenor Ike. Like to see you do a video on that comparison.

[@ixd7ev254]

Would you please make comments on comparing the baritone ukulele with a guitalele? I thought they were the same size, but I have just learned that the guitalele is smaller, like the tenor uke. I am particularly interested in the size and spacing of fretboard. I have been learning a bari. Thankyou!

[@socaljackaemmer6819]

I find it interesting how many feel there is only one name for this instrument. One of the earliest commercial developers of this instrument, Kanile'a calls it a 'Guitarlele'. In fact based upon the following lines from the web … it appears there are several different name for this instrument ("Several guitar and ukulele manufacturers market guitaleles, including Yamaha Corporation's GL-1 Guitalele, Cordoba's Guilele and Mini, Koaloha's D-VI 6-string tenor ukulele, Mele's Guitarlele, Kanilea's GL6 Guitarlele and Islander GL6, Luna's 6-string baritone ukulele, the Lichty Kīkū, the Kinnard Kīkū, and the Gretsch guitar-ukulele." ) Call it what you like, it is a portable instrument that is relatively easy to learn and transport with extended tonal range compared to a four string instrument. I think I will call mine a "Ukitar".

[@troutdaletim]

I believe that this would work better for me when it comes to chording with the strings wider apart from each other. Does that make sense?

[@joewell6435]

I don't play guitar, I play baritone guitalele.

[@MrBryantb2]

Is it possible to put some bassier strings on their to increase the lowend? The body and string shape lengths and neck make me think it will sound high, but the other video you showed it's got decent lows

[@dereksguitarchannel3354]

To my untrained ear they sound the same (with guitar fretted at the fifth). Used to play a baritone uke but now play both a nylon string and a steel string guitar. In general prefer the sound of nylon over steel strings so am interested in getting a nylon stringed guitalele (for those that don't know Ibanez make a steel stringed guitalele).

[@anchovyfish9884]

Thank you very much for the info. Still relevant! I really want to re-learn the guitar again but with small hands and me moving house constantly, any additional weight to move around with is too much for me. I'm really considering the guitarlele, though it seems i have to set my mind to Transpose everytime i play a song. Would this be wise if i eventually want to graduate to a guitar?

[@jochenvoigt6109]

a nice sounding strumming on both guitars!..."good riddance" is an earworm;-)

[@ElShogoso]

It is a totally different instrument in tone, yeah. I don't know if it is because I'm a guitar player stuff but I still prefer the sound of the guitar overall, it's more "full" and has a lot more bass in it. I'd still want to study the guitarlele because it seems like a fun little instrument to bring to the beach and play with a group of friends. I'm actually interested in finding out if, with higher tension strings (like those found in small/kid guitars), I'd be able to tune it in standard E

[@Ukelikethepros]

Good point. Yes the guitar is fuller sounding for sure. But if your use to playing an ukulele than the guitarlele sounds fuller. I did try to tune my guitalele down to E - E like a guitar and it’s didn’t work. I actually have a video on it. So to your point maybe with high tension strings it may work, I will talk to Pepe Romero Jr about it, he’s an expert and can give an good answer to this

[@beneficiallow]

[@rjp63vip]

Well Terry you know my Goldie Locks story but i'll share it for others to see. Once upon a time I really wanted to learn to play guitar but everytime I tried to hold one and play. I thought it's too Big and too long! Too heavy. If I had to play a guitar I would choose the yamaha electric acoustic apx2 I think that's the name of it . However even this small guitar I find too long! Then my mom suggested a ukulele because of the smaller size and simple chords shapes for C F A Cmaj 7 C7 etc... But I found many ukulekes to small and too high pitched and tinny sounding. I tried the baritone but I didn't like the tuning, it was a tad long but not too long but not many baritone tutorials. So I brought a cheap soprano ukulele mostly because of price! I got it home and played it for a few days and returned it. Too small, to tinny sounding. Now I had tried a Guitarlele at the music store and thought wow! I love the size, the sound, and the price! But when u checked KZbin for Guitarlee tutorials I only found a handful done by you. Then I saw one of your Guitarlele vidoes where you talk about your Guitarlele course and at a discounted price! Well that's where like Goldie Locks I said this one is Just Right! Your Guitarlele course is Awesime and FUNtastic! So which do I prefer? Need I say more after that Epic reply! 😜🙃😎 The Guitarlele hands down! I love the warmer sound! Plus I live in the best of three worlds now! I can watch and learn from ukulele and guitar tutorials ! I took my Guitarlele to jam at World Ukulele Day at West Edmonton Mall and It was a perfect fit! I see 1 billion people playing this instrument in the merry near future.because of its size , tone, price and adaptability! Nuff Said finally! 🎼🎼🎼🎼😎😎😎💃🏾💃🏾👍🏿👍🏿🎤🎤🎬🎬🌅🌅😜😜😜 JR 😎 🌅

[@rupfhuhn]

if using a piezo or a mic and an amp, it's possible to make the guitalele (yamahas name) more sound like a guitar by also using the fatest availiable strings

[@MaiElizabeth]

Can we still tune a guitalele the same standard E? Bcoz I hate to bring my guitar out.

[@5688gamble]

They have different timbres due to the size of the soundbox, but barring the guitalele sounding a fourth higher they essentially play the same, if I know a song on guitar, I could play it a fourth higher on guitalele easily, like I already can for many songs on guitar or ukulele, starting on a guitalele would probably be ideal for someone struggling with guitar and learning one essentially opens the other up, I think learning multiple instruments benefits your musicality in general, instead of looking for shapes first and learning about why, you learn to figure it out based on your knowledge of music in general. I always struggled with guitar but when I got a violin, then a mandolin and an ukulele, I found my progress on guitar speeding up rapidly as musical ideas became more accessible, as stringed instruments are quite funny to try and play if you only look at tabs and chord diagrams. Learning how to construct chords on multiple instruments opens many doors! I can try out weird tunings and know all the places I can find the note I want, I can construct a chord based on it's intervals and embellishments rather than having to look up every chord for every instrument and potential tuning!

[@ajmorning1]

A good comparison but is it a necessary addition to my ukulele collection?

[@daveguinn4233]

I have a Kala guitarlele I bought on a whim, but it sat unplayed for a few years. I want more range than I get from my ukes now, so... Also, I like the wider neck of a classical guitar/guitarlele, but for medical reasons can’t handle the stretch required for the upper guitar frets. This seems like a good place to start. Maybe a requinta guitar later? Thank you for these tutorials.

[@benaplokcampandgo]

Very nice.. how bout tuning the guitalele same as the standard guitar. Is it posible? Is it still playable? Coz if im gonna have a guitalele, im gonna tune it to standard tuning (open E).

[@JasonWelchMusic]

Capos choke tone. Yes, the bigger body of the full sized guitar was still bigger, and still resonates more than the uke body.... but the TONE was choked. The uke body was wide open and sounded free. And its easy to keep in my locker at work to enjoy during my lunch hour...😊

[@11jokerchen11]

I think that baritone ukuleles probably sound closer to a guitar than a guitalele does because the strings are the same as the bottom ones on the guitar and they're also pretty big and closer to a guitar with the sound. On a scale the guitalele would be closer to the ukulele and the baritone uke to a guitar. Without using capos, I actually think the two sounded really close to each other with the capo on the 5th fret. But I don't have a baritone myself so I can only judge that by KZbin videos and knowing what my own ukuleles and guitar sound like. But thanks for that very comprehensive video!

Are the string notes of guitalele different from guitar? Sequence wise

[@notinservice4691]

I have a question tho .... uhm im left handed? soooo can i play even though im left handed

[@nancytownsend9771]

The beautiful ukelele sound is still there

[@chrismiller6390]

Terry - as I read your email and prior to watching the video, I told Ellen that the sound would be very similar, but the guitar’s sound would be a little fuller; however, one is much easier to carry around 😀.

[@Ukelikethepros]

Chris, yea that is for sure. I just got back Maui and took my guitarlele, it's no problem carrying it on board and throwing it in the overhead bins. It could even go under the seat if needed. Say hi to Ellen for me.

5:11 which song is this.... it's soo awesome hearing this..

[@leonardovillasenor6225]

Where I can find the guitalele?

[@deeflow9203]

can you please tell me dm and c on guitar equal to guitalele?

[@kylesgarden8725]

The low strings of the guitalele are unwound nylon?

[@KevinMillard68]

actually the body is bigger then the tenor ukulele, and those that say the guitalele is the same as a guitar with the capo on the 5th fret is the same are right when you capo the 5th fret of the guitar the string tuning is the same as the guitalele the sound of the guitar will be better because of the larger body, the capo alters not only the sound but the key as well as in this case yes the tuning due to the capo and its purpose or job that is does, if you capo the 7th fret of the guitalele the tuning is now the same as a guitar with no capo but the pitch is alot higher..

[@kybieee]

Does the guitarlele have different varieties?

[@astore3757]

How to play the barre chords with this small space for the fingers? It is very hard for me.. So.. I think that it is a nice instrument but not for all music.

[@ranath2424]

I am using Yousician app for learning music, what instrument I have to select to learn GL1 :- Ukulelel or Guitar?

[@Alexander-vm2ox]

Ukulele because the chords are different

[@StringsOfBrian]

Hey Terry, please help me out. Where do you purchase the guitalele you’re playing? I can’t find it anywhere online. Please help.

[@Ukelikethepros]

I have them in stock right now, have 3 left to choose from, the KoAloha Guitarlele. Check out store.ukelikethepros.com

[@StringsOfBrian]

Uke Like The Pros Thank you so much for your reply. Really appreciate it. Went to the site. I think it’s a little high price-wise for me right now. I’m going to get the Gretsch G916 and ride that out for a year and see how I enjoy the six string uke before I pay for a more expensive one.

[@mamamo9656]

@@Ukelikethepros hi, i have question. If i can play the guitalele, then does that mean i can also play the guitar? 🤦‍♀😂

[@mnazar3601]

I would love to have guitarlele for my child so he can learn to master the code n notes before being an adults to play guitar!.

[@DeepakSharma-ol8mp]

Can we do strumming on guitalele?

[@shaliyahyzabelvelarde6538]

is it okay if the tuning of guitarlele is the same as the guitar?

[@KennethOng78]

Could you just shift all the original strings down and buy just a low E string to tune it EADGBE? Would it sound weird? I would like to buy a guitalele and wonder if that is an option. Thanks. It sounds great.

[@Ukelikethepros]

Good question and I have a video coming out on that. Typically no, because guitar tuning is down a 4th, the strings have too much slack in them and sound funny. You would need a high tension string in order for it to work effectively.

[@LonchoC]

Guitar sounds fuller... I don´t really get de Guitarlele thing, what's the difference with a Requinto??

[@adamalbasatina6636]

how do you tune a guitalele

[@joebloggs7945]

My friend refuses to learn guitar and plays a uke. Got one of these I reckon it will help lol

[@kamuringa]

Hello Terry, according to your experience: what would be better for a person that is looking for a traveler guitar: to buy a guitalele or a 31" guitar (nylon string)?

[@SpringfieldGuy]

Bearing in mind that the above comment is three years old and Felipe has likely already purchased what he was inquiring about, after trying several types of travel guitars three years ago, I ended up with a 31" Steinberger headless travel guitar by Gibson. It has a full size fretboard and sounds good with a 3 watt BlackStar battery amp, both of which fit in my day pack and also fit in the overhead storage of an aircraft.

[@kamuringa]

@@SpringfieldGuy Hi Terry, I just bought a 31 nylon string guitar... and it was a lot of fun, it was a Woodpecker guitar (they are from Netherland but made in China), very good finished and a cool instrument. full-size fretboard, a little lack of volume, but really super nice to play and beautiful.
