So...a local store got in a display of "Luna" ukuleles, with most all of them $199.
Where I live, it is rare to be able to try anything therefore I am limited to on line purchasing.
I am, now, able to compare my pono ATD 2 with something...wow. Hands down, the Pono's sound and playability are night and day different.
I did have some fun with two items:
1. banjolele was so much fun to play! It was pretty low volume, however, and only came in a very small size.
2. ukulele bass: this I plugged in and I love it!
3. 8 string ukulele. This is like the 12 string guitar and it was not impressive.
no baritones to try!
Having fallen in love with banjolele and ukulele bass, I am now determined to grow a new money tree in the backyard and land these two instruments. I will look into various brands and will want a god set up, as I got with the Pono.
The banjolele and uk-bass were both a lot of fun and feel like they would be great "living room concert" instruments and great for recording, too.
