Went to Fed Ex this morning and picked my new Uke up. I opened it up there to check condition then put everything back. Had to work all day with it sitting in the passenger side Seat right next to me. Got back to the office and opened it up. Gosh it is even more beautiful than the pics can show...

Ordered a Gretsch 9120 Tenor solid KOA top, back, and sides from HMS on March 8. Just got email this evening that it should be here by 8pm Wednesday. Bet you can't tell how excited I am.

From what I understand when you work your way up the fretboard if your uke is in tune then at each fret your tuner should show the note you just played and it should show that note as spot on. So if i get to the 4th fret first string and it doesn't show correctly but then it does on the 5th fret...

I am planning on getting a tenor. I currently have a concert Cocobolo, and a Bruko no 6 soprano. I am not against used either. I do not have any where within a 4 hour drive one way to be able to check these out myself. I will be ordering from HMS, UKE Republic, or MIM. None of those stores...

First off I have no Uke Stores remotely close to me. Meaning nothing under a 4 hour drive. Other than Guitar Center and a couple of Mom and Pop places that carry 3 or 4 Ukes. This will be my first Uke. Well I did have one about 5 years ago but work and a lot of other things got in the way so I...

Every time I try and change chords the head of the uke moves. I was trying to learn guitar and the same thing would happen. I have my thumb on the neck, the uke I guess you could say cradled in my right arm and I strum in front of the soundhold. Never fails, every time I take my fingers off the...

I fill out all the info, then click on submit. Nothing happens. I have tried it several times. Is anyone else having problems signing up?

No matter what songs I try to play, I can play the chords, I can switch chords, I cannot figure out even remotely how to strum. Where do you go to get strumming patterns for songs. I would love to be able to play "Volcano" by Jimmy Buffett (only 3 chords), and Margaritaville (only 4 chords) I...

If I have the tab sheets can I use it for playing the uke. So if a song starts out with an "A" cord can I just use the "A" cord on the uke? I am trying to find uke tabs but ran into chordie.com and they are all in guitar tab form. Any help getting uke tabs for Eagles and Jimmy Buffett songs...

Well I finally took the plunge. I have been researching for a couple of months. Only local place I could find that had Ukes was Guitar Center, and no one there knew anything about them. So I have been going back and forth about what brand to choose, what wood to choose, and where to order from...

I have been wanting a uke. I have never played one before. I just started learning to play a guitar a few months ago. I have been researching ukes for a couple of months now trying to decide which one I wanted. I did find a place locally that carried Makai so I went today. First time I have ever...

Kala KA TEM or CEM. I will be ordering from MGM as recommended by so many here. I have never played before, and from what I have read these seem to be pretty good beginner ukes. Any recommendations would be appreciated. TEM has free shipping and the CEM does not so total cost is pretty much...
