Actually as I was off today, I decided I was going to look at all the music places close to me, just to see what they had.
Quest for Ukulele (QFU) don't you know.
So anyways, at the first place they had some nice stuff, but I was looking for a Kanile'a tenor, which they didn't have.
At the second place, there was the usual stuff.
I say usual because I go in there like every two weeks; paydays.
Well I was got to talking to my usual salesperson dude and I say well, let me look at that Kamaka up there.
Turns out someone was jamming on it for there were tons of strumming marks on it!
Too bad I says, it was a nice one.
Being here in HI is an advantage as I pretty much get to see all kinds of ukulele. Kamakas are usually pretty bland, they save the nice wood for the deluxe models.
So anways, I says too bad about that Kamaka for it had a nice two tone book matched front.
Wait, says the salesperson dude. We just got some new ones in today.
Really? says I.
The first one I look at is really nice.
I mean really nice.
Vertical banding with great colors front and back.
Lemme see the other ones, I says.
The next thing I say is: I'll take that one.
okay, that's enhanced by a studio light, but that's pretty darn curly for a standard HF3!
The other one (third one) was actually nice too, but this one sounded a bit louder and deeper.
It was an expensive day, but a good day.
