What would have me acquiring ukes, if I had the gelt, would be not only the acqusition of varied patterns, sizes and materials, but more importantly, of different sounds. While lacking money for additional ukuleles, however, I do have enough to change strings every couple of months, and voila, with the string change a new ukulele emerges. Most recently, against prevailing wisdom, I replaced the meek and mild Worth Browns on my Bruko 6 with more robust Aquila Lavas. Then, as I was sick of the Aquila Red low G guitar sound on my laminate Moselele Bambookulele-- why turn a uke into a tiny guitar?-- I replaced the Reds with the other half of the Worth Browns originally intended for the Bruko. Eureka! My budget ukulele is now my primary busking uke as it is now zingy zangy enough to cut through the ambient noise of the streets-- meek and weak on the Bruko, yet zingy zangy on the laminate. In the end I aim to try every string known to humanity on both instruments.
