An electric harp ukulele. The bottom four strings are tuned (low) g, c, e, a. The top harp strings are tuned to whatever bass notes fit the song. (For the song in this video, I used A, C, and E).

Amazing sound, seems to be an inspiring instrument

I hope it holds up, Daniel.  I would bet it would.   Love that emerald green.

Jim and Paddy,  I was a little concerned with the headstock holding up too.  I tried to keep the head as thick as possible and used a nice, stable piece of wood.  Hopefully it does not give me problems in the future.

Sounds good!

Taking it to the next level, Daniel. Super awesome!

Looks great!  I'm always impressed when someone goes that far outside the box and it works that well.  Looks like a lot of fun to play too.

Very cool Daniel. Yeah, I'd be a little worried about either the cross grain in the headstock cracking or the sideways pull on the neck. But I've looked at a bunch of your builds and I'm sure you've taken all that inyo account. On harp guitars I think there's usually a support piece coming back down to the body, but hey, this sounds fantastic.

Pretty and nice details.   Sounds great.   Hmm.  Seems like a lot of stress on that neck.   It would be interesting to hear how you like it over time.
