I was listening to Del Rey the other day, and thought that a resonator uke might be fun to try. And then I looked at the price at the one for sale on the Elderly site, and figured it was only fun to listen to.
But, I know that there are less expensive versions, so tell me about resonator ukes.
I tried reading through some old threads on UU, and saw mention of needing to know how to care for them, (for the cones?), but no explanation given.
I would guess that there are probably some poor quality reso ukes on the market, so how do you know which to avoid and which is worth a try?
What is string tension like compared to a standard ukulele?
Anything else one should know if interested in a reso uke?
