My Very First Uke!
My brother Dave (DownUpDave) introduced me to his newpassion a few weeks ago when I was visiting him in Canada. I was hooked. Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to do everything my big brother did, so I figured why mess with a sure thing, so I took up the Uke when I got back home to Santa Barbara, California.
I started looking for a Uke right away. I use to have a home on the Big Island. While there I fell in love with the Hawaiian people,culture and music. So I decided I wanted a Koa uke from a Hawaiian company that wouldn’t break the bank.
I finally found what I was looking for on eBay. It is a solid Koa Pono, which I understand they don't make anymore. A cute little soprano with a sweet sound…at least to my untrained ear.
I have been having a blast and signed up for Uke Classes as soon as my Uke arrived. I had my first class last week…boy are my fingers sore!
Anyway, here are some pic of my new baby. Enjoy.
