MY NEW 18-STRING HURDY-GURDY 

Don't you have a Hurdy Gurdy's Are Us at your local mall ?

Nah just run to walmart

Carl Loewenguth IKR LOL

All five of my local malls have failed, two are being torn down. Turns out that A: malls are a terrible form factor for retail space and B: Capitalism doesn't actually work.

@The Garden of Eatin, Malls are being replaced by online shopping, amazon et al, that is capitalism at work, it fills the needs and wants of the consumer, the high overhead costs of large malls can't compete with online merchants.

Jared Dines Should have got with her 18 string gurdy builder instead of that rip-off asswipe dude with his Chinese kit for 2018. And yes, I have no idea how I went from Hendrix videos to the gurdy girl but glad I did. She's great! Cheers!

OH MY FUCKING GOD

Fuck! That would be awesome.

Jared Dines fuck yes

Jared wtf why are you here too? 😂

My guy delivers; it's pretty sick

Considering as they are almost exclusively hand crafted instruments, finding a gurdy luthier is the only way to acquire one, likely from Europe. Thus they are often made to order and customized to the purchaser’s specifications.

Ugh it’s not complicated just go to the nearest enchanted forest and ask the fairies. Bring some Kinder Egg, the little junkies are addicted to the stuff.

I have business first with my armorer then right over to luthier shoppe.

No proper bard would ever admit this.

Ivan ambition, I found myself wondering what kind of music could/would be performed on a hurdy gurdy if the wheel was spun by a motor and lithium-ion batteries, making both of the musicians' hands available for actually playing the notes!

@@goodun2974 The musician uses control of the wheel for expression, using a battery-driven wheel to free up the cranking hand could take that control away from the musician... It would be possible to use a pedal to control some aspects but it would be like asking a violinist to use a pedal to control their bow.

But if you modify it... you void the warrantee. ........ I hate it when people say that. I think as an adult I know the risk I take by drilling a hole in a store bought item. .... I almost always modify everything I buy, because the manufacturer and or inventor, almost always stops short of what the item could be if they just put a little more thought into it before they package it up that way.... For instance.... on a GPS navigator , when you already have the address typed into it and it's already providing directions for you.... BUT you decide to stop off at a convenient store to get gas, or something to eat. As soon as you veer off the path to go to the store..... The GPS Navigator won't shut up with how it's recalculating, and how you're going the wrong direction... it just goes crazy..... and they put no button on the unit to hit like a snooze on an alarm so the unit will shut up.. without going into a drop menu finding the volume , and sliding the virtual up and down slide... all this while driving... So the first thing I did was drill a hole init and install a rocker on/off switch.. in line with the speaker... It's low profile and it doesn't look weird or anything. now I can reach down without looking ... and temporarily turn the sound completely off without interfering with the original path of navigation. Just simply turn it back on when I'm done in the store. NOW... why don't the manufactures do that? so I don't have to... It would be a great feature.. but that's what I mean by they always stop short.

@@trevorforrester3142 , yeah, I'm with ya! I have modified lots of my own tools and devices over the years, such as putting longer cords on my older power tools, adding power indicator lights or LEDs or illuminated switches to electrical devices and power strips that don't have them, adding modular power-inlet jacks to devices that were formerly hardwired or only ran off of batteries, changing knobs to types that aree easier to see and use, and so on. A mute button on my wife's GPS would be helpfull, especially when she calls me from the car and the device is yammering away in the background (a mute button on my wife might occasionally be useful, and I'm sure she'd say the same about me!). By the way, I truly hate how the power adapter jacks on virtually *everything* these days has been changed to the same type of Mini USB jacks that we find on our smartphones. Those flimsy jacks, especially when used on a GPS device that might suddenly slide off the dash or that gets unplugged frequently and stashed under the seat or in the trunk to deter theft, are all too easy to break from frequent connection cycles or when the cable gets yanked on, and nearly impossible to swap out or repair (even for me, an electronics technician with excellent soldering skills!). I secured the cable and connector to the back of the GPS with self- adhesive tie-wrap buttons and cable ties, so that the worst that can happen is the power cable fails from repeated flexing rather than the jack on the device failing. I wish manufacturers of Audio-Video amplifiers and receivers and so on would design the HDMI inputs with a sleeve or tunnel surround the jacks so that the HDMI connector can't be torqued sideways. Those connectors become intermittent or fail frequently and replacing them is nearly impossible. It's just a terrible design. Planned obsolescence that causes so many devices to be thrown out prematurely, clogging landfills and wasting fossil fuel energy and mined materials.

@@donkmeister , perhaps.....but at one time, organists used their feet to operate bellows that pushed air through the pipes; until motors and blowers were developed and organs were built using them, or retrofitted with them. Then we got electronic organs with Oscillator circuits, and rotating Leslie speakers*.....I'm not trying to detract from the charm of completely manually-operated acoustic instruments, just saying that there is always room for innovation. By the way, the first time I saw someone playing a nyckelharpa, I said "what the hell is that?!". A pretty cool instrument, really.... * A Hammond organ through a Leslie, in the hands of someone who knows how to use it, is one of the most awesome sounds you will ever hear, IMHO.

or a 5 string acoustic electric violin!

@@CaitlynJneeCocke There's no limits!!!

Underrated comment! \m/

Tagelharpe players: "Hold my rune"

@@Ddarke11 no no, no no no, no no there's no limit!

Lol

That’s funny.

Ha lol

What the fuck this is the kind of shit I find funny

LOOOL

Kris E same here brother man guy dude

Neither did I

Fax me too

I'm not just copying here same I didn't know until I played sea of thives

Look up the Black Sails theme, they used a gurdy for it

Try "I got a fever...and the prescription is.... more hurdy gurdy!"

The people at Guitar Center were so confused.

A luthier probably hand makes custom capos dummies. Flew right over ya heads.

Yours too? Man, I hate when that happens. Shame it happens so often.

Too many good gurdy luthiers have been lost that way.

Haha ! No likes . Unbelievable

😂

Not me guys I love the "natural" look.. She IS BEAUTIFUL In green accents. Wonder what a Whole Band would sound like?? Not sure more of them, at the same time, would be better.

Brilliant!!!

If it's green it needs more than washing, I'd say

she has with the other ones

It looks cool too. It complements her red hair. Cool

ugliest thing i ever seen haha. i guess not my style.

Your life is now complete

What'd she do to my pickle?

Oh lordie!!! I just heard a gudy!!!! What the what ???

The maker charges EUR 10,000 for it...

hi lite - isn't that a mild spliff?

I was watching lions kill hyenas!😳

imagine thinking someone’s physical appearance is as important as their mastery of an ancient, notoriously difficult instrument

ah f Well, her appearance will help assure that she reproduces and is able to pass on her talent to the next generation.

Just what I was thinking luminlay material that you can charge up with a black light sounds like what she might need without the hassle of leds.

Robin Flick Now I wanna hear I love my Parents on hurdy gurdy

Or some Rage Against The Machine. :) Tom Morello \,,/

Mau Slingerland - - 👀😂🤣😂👍

EGK EAGLE I laughed so damn hard, like I’m actually crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣

camaro69 Wow, another online asshole

you're the asshole, you dumb asshole

**snaps**

@camaro69 you're easily triggered.

It's 2:20 am and I'm doing the same. :-)

Yeah me too. 3:31am... First say this video the other night around 2 though.

1:30am and this comment sums up my life

Just think ten months later some dude is in the same oddness. Couple hours off. Lol

Same. I love the hurdy gurdy. It has such an incredible sound. I wish she had played something

Or a small girl ;-)

Yes, that was going to be my question! I thought the first one would have been somewhat heavy, but this one is so much larger it must be even worse! I hope your back can handle the weight, Patty!

I think Patty said she was like 5'8 in one of the Q&A videos.

Next to me it would look small

Hugey gurdy

Those low drone strings are basically djenting all the time.

Bro.....did you not here that extremely low C.......that son of a birch was djent-ing before djent-ing was djent-ing

"here" When you're too stupid to know the difference between "hear" and "here"

DJEEEEEEEEEENT

Крутяк, да.

Согласен

Copernicaso Have enough money to buy a car and you'll be halfway there.

Yep. Start saving. They're not cheap.

Hindsight Did it hurdy? Lol.

I asked a woman to help me play my gurdy. She slapped me after I asked her to yank my crank.

Lol. I about choked on my piece of candy when I read that.

cannonball666 Lmfao

no idea but its real pissed

Traumatised

LOL !

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

You change them, they get worn out. Regular housecats works fine. But if you feel like getting an extra fancy tune you can always go with a Bengal. That is if your wallet permits!

The Purdy Hurdy Gurdy Girly.
