The inherently versatile instrument can elicit a wide variety of tones and is therefore able to fit into countless styles and emotions. Alone at the campfire, in the orchestra or in the rock band – the choice is yours!
The electric guitar belongs in many ways to the standard cast of bands of all styles. In addition to the numerous possibilities of a guitar to function as a rhythm as well as a melody instrument, its dependence on amplifiers and effects opens up an endless soundscape to the musician.
The bass is responsible for much more than people think. It is not just a simpler type of a rhythm guitar in a band, but when competently played, it is a key component of a powerful and functioning musical expression.
The ukulele is your little companion. With the help of a few tricks on the Hawaiian guitar, all songs can be interpreted in such a way that the fun of playing and listening is inevitable.
