I've been playing a Lanaki soprano pineapple for a year or so now, and really enjoy it. It's a great instrument for knocking around, campfires, throwing in the car, backpack, etc.
It's treated me good, but it's not very loud and the intonation isn't great. So I'm thinking about getting another uke for when I'm playing in front of people (mostly at church, but also a decent amount of busking at the local farmers market).
With that in mind, I'm thinking about something fairly loud (a tenor? a banjolele? a resonator?). I really like slotted headstocks (and really DISLIKE friction tuners) and for church, having a pickup would be really handy.
Any suggestions? I'm thinking in the mid to lower price range, less than $300 used. (I don't play enough uke to justify something high end at this point). I largely prefer used gear - I'm happy to let somebody else pay to drive it off the lot.
I'm really kicking myself for missing the Musicians Friend daily deal in the monkey pod tenor for $200 the other day. But maybe there's something else similar out there (or maybe a Butler Music blem?)
Any suggestions?
