Luna Tribal 6 String Baritone Guitarlele

Full Description

A guitar and ukulele hybrid - dare to be different

The Luna Tribal is a guitarlele, which is a guitar-ukulele hybrid that offers the performance of a classical guitar with the portability of a ukulele. Since it features six strings instead of the standard four, the Guitarlele can deliver a wider range of tones for you to play with. This is perfect if you're used to playing a guitar or want to expand your playing skills. While it plays like a guitar, its size and sound are more like a ukulele. Featuring a baritone size, smaller than a guitar yet largest of the uke family, the Luna tribal offers an incredible amount of projection and volume.

An inviting experience

Brimming with tonal flavour, boasting a superb player-friendly feel. This is certainly one to take to the beach with you, or wherever you'd like to travel. Enjoy beautiful warmth and resonance which radiates from an all-mahogany body, it's perfect for a multitude of playing techniques and exploring different genres. One thing's for sure, from first strum, this Luna Tribal Guitarlele brings comfort and joy through inviting sound and enjoyable playability. Plus, with its ''C''-shaped neck and thoughtful design, the Tribal Guitarlele allows you to wave goodbye to nasty hand cramps too. To top it all off, its tattoo aesthetic is taken from traditional pacific carvings, using a range of shapes and symbols inspired by tribal warriors to create a truly captivating look. So you always stand out - wherever you play.

Luna's vision...

A beautiful journey. Starting with Yvonne Villiers, an accomplished stained-glass artist, who envisioned Luna guitars. Her inspiration for Luna all began with her mum Hilda Villiers, a bassist for over 40 years. Yvonne couldn't help but notice the massive struggle her mum had whilst playing enduring sets, and then listen to her complaints of discomfort. Forever battling the heft and bulk that basses can bring is tiresome, especially for smaller frames. That heaviness bares down throughout long sets and impacts your performance. So that left Yvonne with her curiosity and inspiration sparked. Dreaming of beautiful instruments designed to maximise playing comfort and entice women searching for lightweight design and comfort to accommodate their curves.

Yvonne knew she couldn't be the only person with this mindset. Sure that others also struggle with the same problems she saw her mum suffer with. With that, the idea for Luna Guitars was born, a woman-specific instrument brand that would be uniquely tailored to female-kind. Perfect for more petite frames, smaller hands, and general playing comfort. But that wasn't all. Yvonne wanted to create a line of guitars for females of all ages, crafted with luminous visual beauty. Not only to engage women's minds and spirits but their talents too. So it's time to stand out from the crowd with exclusive design.

With distinctive artist skills, Yvonne already had an impeccable eye for colour and breathtaking design. Applying the same techniques to her new line of guitars that she used to create her award-winning stained glass artwork. Renowned for using rich colours that shimmer and shine at every angle, Yvonne certainly knows how to deliver outstanding beauty. Alongside Luna's great tone, and a fantastic player-friendly feel. Taking much of their aesthetic inspiration from the connective beauty of nature, Luna Guitars continue to produce spirit-engaging instruments that both female and male musicians can cherish forever.
