It may include a built-in microphone that permits playing the guitalele either as an acoustic guitar or connected to an amplifier. The guitalele is variously marketed (and used) as a travel guitar or children’s guitar. It is essentially a modern iteration of the Quint guitar.[5]  A guitalele or guitarleleA guitalele is the size of a ukulele, and is commonly played like a guitar transposed up to \u201cA\u201d (that is, up a 4th, or like a guitar with a capo on the fifth fret). This gives it tuning of ADGCEA, with the top four strings tuned like a low G ukulele.[6]  This is the same as the tuning of the requinto guitar, although the latter are typically larger than a guitalele, and as the most common tuning for the guitarr\u00f3n mexicano, albeit at a higher octave.Several guitar and ukulele manufacturers market guitaleles, including Yamaha Corporation’s GL-1 Guitalele,[7][8] Cordoba’s Guilele[9] and Mini,[10] Koaloha’s D-VI 6-string tenor ukulele,[11] Mele’s Guitarlele,[12] Kanilea’s GL6 Guitarlele[13] and Islander GL6,[14] Luna’s 6-string baritone ukulele,[15] the Yudelele, the Lichty K\u012bk\u016b,[2] the Kinnard K\u012bk\u016b,[3] and the Gretsch guitar-ukulele.[16]Some manufacturers’ (e.g., Luna) use of the term “6-string ukulele” (or the like) in describing their six-string, six-course guitaleles can lead to confusion with the common six-string, four-course ukuleles that are typically referred to by the same name.[17] These four-course “6-string ukuleles” are usually strung with a single G string, a closely spaced course of two (often octave-tuned) C strings, a single E string and a closely spaced course of two (often unison-tuned) A strings. This means that chord formation is more akin to a traditional four-string ukulele, while the Guitalele’s is more akin to a six-string guitar.Terminology[edit]In Latin America, Brazil, Portugal, and Spain, this instrument type is often referred to as a kind of Requinto.In that sense, the new English portmanteau word Guitalele is a commercial brand used to promote a locally unfamiliar variant of the guitar. Despite the Hawaiian origin of the word Kiku’, the term is also a commercial, Anglo-Saxon creation.Perhaps for these reasons, many sellers avoid naming the instrument altogether, preferring instead to use descriptive terms like ‘6-string ukulele’ or ‘Guitar-Ukulele’.[18] In English, the alternative term Ukitar emerged in parallel, but its usage is not widespread among instrument vendors.References[edit]^ “Want to mess up my acoustic…” Ultimate-guitar.com.
