Here it is, finally. A video of the Compass Rose "Le Jazz" model that Rick Turner made for me. Thanks Rick! See you at the Wine Country Ukulele Festival. More videos of this uke to come....
Lovely video!
I like your CR better than the "other uke" but I'm a little partial
Thanks Sarah...
very nice...
do have T-2's on the uke...I use them on my Koa CR....
You know- There are certain things I like better on the CR and others I prefer the DaSilva... The CR is perfect for comping purposes- some of the chord melody stuff also sounds amazing on it, but the higher up the neck I go (like 12th-15 fret), the notes are not as clear as the DaSilva. The roundness of the tone on the CR is very sweet, however. I'm just so honored that Rick made me a uke- Even though there is not a lot of video of me performing with it, I use it a lot.
12th-15th fret . . . where's that? :biglaugh:
I'd love for you to play my CR at WCUF.
I want Craig to play a little golpe style on it, so I can hear that too.
Yes- I have the T-2's on it, except the Low G is a Ukulele Creations PHd string.

I signed up for your "Playing Up The Neck" workshop at the Wine Country fest - nice to see what I'm getting myself into, but still not sure that I haven't gone in over my head.
Great performance, Sarah!

Hi Sarah
Nice to finally see a video of you performing with the CR. The sound quality of the CR on the video is as good as it is hearing you live during our lessons. I agree with you especially after our discussion on this same question and seeing you make that point when playing both ukuleles. Its a privilege to have gotten ot know you. Keep on strumming......:music:
