Product Description

The guilele is a unique and fun instrument. This one is the size of a baritone ukulele and is tuned A-D-G-C-E-A , which is the same as a guitar with a capo on the fifth fret. Other tuning can be used of course but this is the tuning they are made for. Great for the guitar player looking for an ukulele sound but using all the voicing and shapes they are used to. It would also be perfect for an ukulele player looking to learn guitar chord shapes and still have that sweet uke tone.

Many people have asked how this compares to other guilele/ aka guita-lele’s on the market like the KoAloha or Cordoba or Yamaha. The main difference is that it is a baritone scale and body size and the others are all tenor size. The added 3″ of scale length and larger body size give more projection and a bigger overall sound. It also has more space for chording and many find it to be the most comfortable. Up until now it was a huge investment to enjoy a GL6. Now Kanile’a makes it at a price that’s hard to pass up.

As you go up the fretboard on the GL6, you get beyond the guitar in range, and bell-like tones ring out more like a piano than a guitar!
Bill Griffin notes, “It’s like a guitar with a capo on the 5th fret, however instead of having 7 or 8 frets left to the body, you have a full 16 frets to the body to go, so it allows guitarists to expand, not only their scale, but their creativity as well.”

GL6 – from the Kanilea website”Our GL6 is a hybrid instrument that Joe developed to bring the convenience of the ‘ukuleles’ size with the chord playability that guitar players love. This instrument has our unique Super Tenor body in combination with our 20 inch Baritone scale joined at the body on the 16th fret with 22 frets total. The tuning of this wonderful instrument is “A D G C E A” or the same tuning as a guitar with a capo at the fifth fret. The volume and resonance that projects from this instrument is phenomenal. Hear for yourself a new voice that is appealing to both the ‘ukulele and guitar aficionado.”
