Well I certainly am not arguing that a setup is a bad thing. Some fine tuning never hurt anything. As I said in my original post, I just wonder how many people are playing a stock, off the shelf ukulele and getting along fine? I have one of each, one set up and one not set up. I will readily admit that my ear for pitch probably is not as developed as booli, but my tuner is saying that they are both well within his range of cents. I like them both and have no problems playing either. But there is such a preponderance of " you gotta get a setup" and so few people who say otherwise, that I got a little curious if I was the only one flying against convention and playing a ukulele that isn't set up. From the responses, I'm not, which for some reason is refreshing.
