stringless guitar
NeoUke is a portable, simple, stringless guitar with a built-in speaker. It comes with common guitar rhythm patterns that can be triggered easily, allowing users to perform guitar accompaniments that would otherwise require years of practice. The player doesn't need to tackle complex chord fingerings to experience the joy of guitar. Additionally, it features a drum machine acting like auto-accompaniment functions, and this makes the music richer. Connecting to the app enriches product features, enabling “flowing the light performance.” NeoUke is a music enlightenment product, ideal for beginners who want to learn about guitars, amateur singing enthusiasts, and children.
