Guitalele is a hybrid between the guitar and ukulele. It was created by Yamaha in 1997, and its purpose was to provide a tonal quality that can be produced by both guitar and ukulele.
The guitalele is mainly used for playing folk, pop, blues, and rock music. Although it’s very similar to a classical guitar in terms of size, its sound is much more like an ukulele.
While the fretboard is identical to a classical guitar (from the nut to the 12th fret), the guitalele has six nylon strings tuned as follows: A-D-G-C-E-A.
The guitalele’s tuning allows musicians to play guitar chords with only one finger on each string. This makes it much easier for beginners to learn how to play the instrument.
A guitalele is a cross between a guitar and a ukulele.
It’s called many different names: guitalele, guitar-ukulele, kiku, mini guitar, etc.
The guitalele was developed in the 1990s as a travel instrument by Yamaha.
Guitalele tuning is ADGCEA (or DGBE). The same as the top five strings of a guitar but an octave higher.
