(May 13, 2004) Toronto Star "Students' old drums pail by comparison; Grant buys school new instruments No more need to pound on buckets." Section: News; Page B3.] that includes a cross between a classical guitar and a tenor ukulele. [Constable, Anne. (April 19, 2008) The Santa Fe New Mexican "The sweet sound of success: Musician's song to daughter finds fans on line and a record deal."] One of the drawbacks of guitars is their unwieldy shape and size.Nikkei Weekly (December 22, 1997) "Small guitar can be amplified." Section: New products, science & Technology. Page 10.] The guitalele overcome these through its size and a built-in microphone that permits playing the guitalele as an acoustic guitar or connected to an amplifier. The guitalele is considered a travel guitar. [Anderton, Craig. (July 1, 2002) Guitar Player " [http://news.google.com/archivesearch?hl=en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tab=wn&q=Travel+guitars+were+big+this+year,+and+Risa+(risa-music.de)+makes+some+funky+little+road+warriors.+The+17%22-scale+Guitarlele Freaks of Frankfurt.] " Volume 36; Issue 7; Page 27.] In January 1997, Yamaha Corporation came out with the GL-1 Guitalele.
