Thought I'd throw this up just for fun on a typical slow UU Sunday night. I was gonna title the thread "I Don't Always Love My Kids, But When I Do They're Making Me Laugh," but my sense of humor has never gone over well here, which is fine- it's my fault- Haha.
Anyway, for the four of you who bother watching this mess, it was supposed to initially be a Marketplace thread sound sample- so that I could raise some funds to buy some razors- before quickly devolving into a complete disaster. It showcases probably the extent of my ukulele playing prowess since I can never get any practicing in because there are always kids climbing on top of me. Then again, I've seen nongdam getting pestered before on camera I think and he's really good. Blast! I stink because I stink! But it's okay since the ukulele is so gosh darn fun! It makes people happy, as evidenced here...
I played this uke all day that day and ultimately decided not to list it. I don't play sopranos often, but I walked around with it for hours annoying the whole house and it was a blast. I had to put Aquilas on it too 'cause I thought I had a pack of Hilo sopranos before I took the A string off, but I only had the tenor sets, and I never changed the soprano strings in two years- so if it sounds at all out of tune they were only five minutes old.
Maui Music ukuleles are up there, though. They play effortlessly, look good, sound good, and they're well built. What more can you ask for? I like them a lot. Respect to the guy who's still doing it old school after all these years: Aloha, Peter! This one goes out to you! Ha! -- "Soupy"
PS My son is playing a UU Vic Blue Frog soprano I bought for him off here. It's very nice!
