Hey everybody,
I like the sound of an electric ukulele. When searching for electric ukueles at a music shop's website in my area, only acoustic-electric ukes popped up.
1) What is the difference between an electric ukulele and an acoustic-electric ukulele? If an acoustic-electric ukulele is both an acoustic and an electric ukulele, why buy an electric or an acoustic ukulele when you can have 2 in 1?
2) As a total beginner, would it be okay to learn on an electric ukulele? I assume there are more tutorials for an acoustic ukulele, so would that be a better option?
3) What ukulele would you recommend for $200 or less?
4) If I buy an electric ukulele, does it have to be plugged in an amp to be heard? (I thought I saw on a video that if can be played unplugged but the volume won't be very loud)
5) If I need an amp, what would you recommend for me? I would like to be able to play with headphones on to not disturb my neighbors.
6) What tuner do you suggest I buy? Do I need to buy a pedal? Should I use a guitar pick?
7) What materials helped you become a better player? Feel free to recommend a DVD, book, video, website, whatever...
If I can think of any more questions, I'll ask them here. Thanks for taking the time to help me out!
