First, I hope it is considered acceptable etiquette using the term Uke. If not, please let me know and I will certainly refrain.
Yet again, another first Uke recommendation thread - and for that I apologize. I am a long time guitar player, winds player, drummer / percussionist, etc., though I have never owned a ukulele. After playing a friends, I find a sure soft spot for the instrument. The one I have played is a concert size and I found it quite comfortable.
I would like to purchase my own and was thinking of starting in the $200 price range. I’m hoping I can find a quality instrument in this price range that will last me a while through learnings?
I was looking at the Mainland instruments and thought they were a good price for an all solid wood construction. Then, I also seen that an entry level Pono can be had in the $375 price range. Though this is over my budget, if the Pono is a superior instrument I could consider the extra funds.
I also have experience with Córdoba intermediate level classical guitars and find them quite nice. Are their Ukuleles in the $200 price range worth considering along with the others?
I would greatly appreciate your assistance! Thanks.
