So my interest has turned to Electric ukes.
I have been getting complaints from neighbours (I live in a dorm), and it seems pretty cool to have an electronic instrument to fiddle around with through an amp!
I've come down to two selelctions.
Either the Kala one with active electronics:
Kala Electric
Or this very interesting looking one from Risa:
Risa electric
The Kala one has active electronics. The Risa one is passive.
But from the video sample of the Risa Soprano at their site, it sounds pretty darn smooth and good. The reason I lean towards the Risa is because of its very compact design and convinced by video.
But then again... is the "Active" pickup better on an electric uke?
I'm a bit confused...
And the Kala has those tone/volume controls + can have headphones plugged into them.
So I'm a bit stuck.
What do you think?
