My first real life exposure to the uke was on my honeymoon in the Cooke Islands. A group of guys were playing them at the exit from the airport and also at different venues/events during out stay.
I considered buying one but I had no music experience at the time and thought it would be a dust-collector.
Now that I have some modest chops on the uke I just can't shake the sound that the Tahitian uke makes, and the way it can be controlled with the rear-facing sound hole.

Does anybody play one of these? Are they tuned like a standard uke only with 4 paired strings? Easier or harder to play?
