Und so sieht eine glückliche Becca Stevens aus. Fotos von der Übergabe, bei uns im Laden. Demnächst gibt es auch Videos.

Construction of the charango and a ukulele was finished on March 11, 2018, as documented in this Facebook post. The next day, Stevens mentioned going to pick up the ukulele in this Facebook post recommending the company. She posted again the day after that, anecdotally confirming the pickup.

Becca Stevens! Nein, das ist keine neue Modellreihe, sondern eine begnadete Musikerin aus Noth Carolina, die in New York lebt.

Sie spielt Gitarre, Ukulele und Charango und singt und schreibt Songs.

http://www.beccastevens.com/

Nachdem sie 2016 in München aufgetreten ist, sind wir auf sie aufmerksam geworden. Zum einen natürlich, weil sie eine hervorragende Musikerin ist, zum anderen wegen ihres Namens. Das verlangte doch nach einem Becca-Stevens Instrument. Jetzt wurden es zwei, eine Konzert Ukulele und ein Charango in gleicher Korpusform. Morgen, am Montag, den 12. März kommt Becca in unseren Laden, um ihre Instrumente abzuholen.

Mit dabei ist die "Guitar Acoustic"- Zeitschrift für ein Interview.

So, hier unten gibt es Entstehungsfotos von den Instrumenten und demnächst auch Fotos von der Übergabe.

In case you’re wondering, the new instruments from Munich Guitar Company #stevensguitars are gorgeous. Will post pics soon...

In the guitar acoustic interview, Stevens revealed that she originally looked into the construction of a ukulele-charango hybrd, but settled on two separate instruments. The resultant charango is the first made by the company.

Als ich zu Anfang mit Stevens in Kontakt war, gab es die Idee, einen Hybriden aus Uke und Charango zu bauen, um weniger Equipment zu transportieren. Das hat aber nicht zufriedenstellend funktioniert. Daher sind wir bei zwei Instrumenten geblieben. Ich fühle mich geehrt, dass sie mich als Inspiration für ein Instrument genommen haben, das sie noch nie gebaut haben: die 001 Charango. Das macht mich richtig glücklich.

The instrument is also mentioned on Stevens' endorsed artist page for Munich Guitar Company.

Wir haben für Becca eine Custom Konzert-Ukulele und ein Charango gebaut.
