Hi all, Blaise here from the greater Sacramento area. I'm a lifelong musician, played guitar all my life, badly. Took up bass two years ago, and developed an interest in the unusual. So I play a Hadean U-Bass, as well as a custom electric upright, 34" scale, radiused fretboard, so I can bow it.
Came to ukes recently as a new project: I'm working on developing fifths-tuned nylon-string instruments for myself, and ukes are my hacking platform of choice. So far, I've strung up a baritone uke in cello tuning (CGDA), rejected it as too small, and moved it up a fifth to octave mandolin/ Irish tenor guitar at GDAE. And it's my favorite thing I've ever played.

So I look forward to discussing my strange, bastardized instruments with y'all, if you'll have me :)
 
Hello and welcome, I think that you are going to fit right in.
