Introducing the Skatalele...

Last night at kanikapila at ‘Ukulele Sundays at Molly Bloom’s in San Clemente, California, Keith brought a Skatalele, To describe the sound plugged in, it was similar to a Tahitian 'Ukulele. Unplugged it is soft and bright. I had fun playing some blues on it. The best way I can describe it is it's a fusion between Pacific Island and California Surf music cultures. The eye appeal is off da' hook. Here’s their website where you can ask questions:

Made from skateboards! awesome! That would combine my two favorite pastimes' Not sure how it would play but I'll have to look into one of these!

Ah shoot! From the title I thought it would be a Ukulele with wheels.

I envisaged either a connection to scat-singing or to, umm, animal scat. Sure, that could be done. For making sh!tty music, right?

I'll admit I was somewhere there with you on that.
