The brass tone ring provides volume and sustain to the voice of this instrument, that only weighs 650 g 😜
It’s built with a spanish cedar body and a “blackwood tek” fretboard.
The blackwood tek is a technologically modified wood that exhibites properties and and appearance of african ebony.
It’s lighter and more stable than ebony, I choose it also because it’s eco-friendly.
On this article you can read more about blackwood tek: https://www.madinter.com/en/blackwood-tek-en.html
This is a Prestigious model with blackwood tek fretboard, fish skin head and brass tonering! 🔥

This is the first video of the Cava sessions!
I’m playing a tenor Gourd Banjoukulele made by me.
It will be available on my kickstarter campaign from 01.04.2020!
My website: https://waizpluckedinstruments.com/
Purtroppo non sono molto in grado di suonarlo, ma le sonorità sono interessanti!

I played for the first time my new five strings gourd banjo!
I will improve my playing technique, but I think that it sounds good.
Manico in cedrella, tastiera in palissandro, piano armonico in pelle di pesce, il tutto montato su una zucca che funge da cassa di risonanza!

This is the tenor Gourd-Ukulele!
Realized with spanish cedar, rosewood, fish leather and, obviously, a gourd!
This one is tuned in C, the next two ones will have the same tuning of a classical guitar! 😎
he wanted six strings instead of four!
So I built the first Supernova, and I’m really happy for the result.
As you can hear, it’s amplified with a piezo sensor, maybe I’ve exaggerated with the reverb 😅
It’s a really particular instrument, I haven’t understood yet for which kind of music it could be used!
Which music would you play with it?
⠀
I would like to thank all of you incredible people who believed in this project and made it possible.
⠀
The campaign exceeded its goal 🏁 but I still want to keep it up for anyone who wants to play the unique handmade WAIZ BENJOLELE 🪕 the benjoukulele which sounds louder than a guitar.
⠀
BUT…
⠀
❗️ … at the end of the campaign I will close the orders, and you could NOT book it for months (no, not even if you pay me in advance 🙂)
⠀
• If you’re a musician and you’re looking for a peculiar sound for your shows
• if you want to play something different
• or if you’re a collector
⠀
please hurry up because there are few hours left for grabbing it!
⠀
Thank you 💚
