We are seeing more ukes now being milled from a solid piece rather than bent/glued from Tyde, and Enya, and probably others. They don't seem to be on par with hand built yet, but they are already surprising decent.
On top of that, the enya milled is adding effects to acoustic, like the lava, and others.
Do you think this is the future, or a gimmick?
I admit Ive been tempted by the novelty aspect, but I cant decide if it's the gimmicky tech that is interesting, if I'd get bored with it, and just go back to acoustics, or if it's a real future for instruments. I've not pulled the trigger because... Im paranoid the electronics would fail and be left with a mediocre instrument that doesn't do it's magic trick.
I kinda wish they sold the effects stuff separately like the Tonewood stuff, so you could do the magic independently, and take it off if you don't want it any more.
What do you all think?
