Non Resonating Hurdy-gurdy introduction

An introduction to my new concept hurdy-gurdy which is designed to minimise the acoustic sound so better to hear the effect of the multiple pickups.

This is quite probably the coolest compilation of concepts I've seen in one home-built instrument, this is an insane level of craftsmanship!

[@j.danaclark89]

excellent craftsmanship!

[@deepsouthnicky7640]

Very modern take on a gurdy, well done!

[@bobosims1848]

It would have been great if a demonstration of how it sounds when connected to an amp, had been included in this video.

Do you sell these?! This is amazing!

Oh, là, là, mister Brook, encore une nouveauté ! Bravo ! Vous êtres infatigable :0)

[@amoscorvus]

Hello Mr. Brook. May I ask what kind of tuning machines/pegs you used? It is hard to find something comparable. Thanks! Your work is really inspiring!

[@lawabidingcitizen5153]

It looks like he is just using guitar tuning machines which should work well but you can alternatively use zither pins or DIY an equivalent from bolts or something

Without the pickups, this on would come out at around the same as a Wren so £1534 for the basic model. Any extras as per my website. The instrument does work without pickups but is not really designed as a fully acoustic gurdy.

This just became the most complicated style of gurdy ............... I didn't know it was possible to make it more complicated

[@GeneralPadron]

How much does that cost?

[@GeneralPadron]

How about one without electronics?
