I'm interested in a cheap-from-China concert uke via Ebay. It's all solid mahogany (sic) & costs $72.99 w/free shipping. YEAH, I know -- it's a crap shoot.
Anyhow I noticed that this uke's bridge is slotted so that the strings are each fastened by a knot INSIDE the instrument's body. I would appreciate any & all answers/comments re the following questions:
1- Is this a good or bad or horrible way to secure strings?
2- How in the world would I remove the old strings then put in new ones?
Aloha from Hawaii
