Last week Tuesday , this beautiful quilted maple Kinnard Kiku came to me from Australia.

I was not in the market of buying another custom built instrument but I have absolutely no self control when opportunity came knocking.

I have been ignoring my four strings children ever since this beauty arrived. I don't think I need to say more about this instrument as many of you already know and have seen video played by CAMSUKE

I found this song in a Korean site . Google translate tells me it's mean [To My Beloved].

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Correction : this is not a guitarlele.

Super sounding Ukulele ... wonderful playing.

Camsuke ... I am NOT LOOKING for a Kinnard Super Tenor Ukulele ... um, nope. Not at all! ;)
 
Nice sounding guitarlele and the playing was well done also.
 
Just beautiful. I have been fortunate enough to stand in front of that instrument while Brenda is playing and its marvelous. It really and truly sounds like a great classical guitar. Amazing when you consider it is basically a baritone with 6 strings. John Kinnard is a magician.
 
Thank you all for the comments. Kiku is the perfect size for me. It has the rich tone of a classical guitar that I have been searching for but much easier to play. It just feels a little strange holding an instrument that belonged to Campbell.
The world is certainly a lot smaller than I thought.

Beautiful, Brenda. Many congratulations!

Pretty sure your Kiku and my Kinnard baritone are from the same maple batch.

I didn't know I have a twin brother. Kiku is just fatter because he lives in the North Pole now! Please show me the pictures !
 
Eddie
He is just as handsome as mine.
Does he have a deep baritone voice?
Thank you for the picture. Should photoshop the two together.

Thank you Kevin !
You don't need any tempting once you became friend with Downupdave. His UAS virus are deadly!
Have fun with your new addition! Looking forward to seeing it!
