    Sippin on sunshine. Original by Zan, Avery and Leah

    https://www.rayvincent.ca Zan agreed to demo my new shell back baritone Ukulele by Rays rootworks. We did a few track's with it. This is one of them. This one "Sippin on Sunshine" was written by Zan, her brother Avery and his girlfriend Leah. I just finished this new Shell back Ukulele. This one is a Baritone (19" scale length tuned DGBE) Zan normally plays a tenor so we capoed it at the 5th and voila ! Now its GCEA just like a tenor. We did a few tracks you can hear the other ones at these links below. I am making these in Baritone, Tenor and Concert. For more info please go to my website.

    Just finished building this one for a customer. I love hearing the deep rich tones of these beautiful woods. This is just sound samples playing different ways on it. Check out my website to see what else I have made. https://www.rayvincent.ca/ Western red cedar top Worth strings Pau Ferro fingerboard. Walnut shell back Mahogany neck. Handmade custom case I recorded this acoustically with a mic. I added a small amount of reverb, as the room I recorded in is so dry.

    follow the ukulele.

    Song written and produced by Ray Vincent. https://www.rayvincent.ca The ukulele is a jam over a track I wrote awhile back (follow the music). I used a semi hollow electric ukulele. That I made recently. It has a Mi-si Align active system in it with bass, treble and volume control. I really love the controls cause they have plus (boost) and minus. It has a Lr Baggs under saddle pickup. It has Worth Brown strings with low G. Goes from there into Lr Baggs EQ/DI and then in my computer where I record a dry track and effects one. The effects channel has guitar rig loaded up with some goodies. Let me know if you want to know what that is. Just ask.

    Rays Rootworks meets Dennis O'Toole. Nice connection of voice and handmade acoustic guitar.

    https://www.rayvincent.ca My friend Bill Reddick, brought Dennis O'toole by to check out the new acoustic guitar that I had just finished building for a customer. (Nadine) The Root 6. Pics included at the beginning of the video of the Root 6 while Dennis and I talk. Then Dennis takes us away with this song written by him (and Dad). It was really nice meeting Dennis, he's a legend around here in Peterborough. This beautiful track is testimonial of Dennis's life here in Peterborough. Memories of living on the river and his Dad. Thank's Dennis, Nadine and Bill. Ray Vincent
