"OCTAVE" UKE: Sound Sample of "The Eagle" by Compass Rose, Rick Turner
Hi Everyone, for those who saw "The Eagle" on Compass Rose's Facebook page last week, I'm finally getting around to letting folks hear it. This is the unveiling of it's voice for the first time.
I believe this is the first "Octave Uke" sounds sample to go on the Internet, although it's the 3rd or 4th one that has gone out Rick's door in the last few months ( I believe ). This is also the first set of strings ever used which will most likely evolve. These are wounds with one fluorcarbon from a D'Addario guitar set. Rick and I will be trying different sets and see where this baby peaks out. I'm going to get a set of polished wounds for the next string change, but will be playing these for a few months just to get used to fretting on the new scale.
I will be having a full review and photos on the way, but for now you can hear it here. It really blew my mind when I first heard it. This will be on display at my UkeJam By The Bay in San Francisco on March 29th for everyone to see.
Just an amazing piece of work from Rick and the sound, well it's all about the sound.
