For me. I haven't played my Islander Soprano for several weeks.Don't really know why. LOL
I'm a little surprised at that. When I got my Multiuke from the Marketplace not long a go, I was surprised how loud it was not amplified, I even use it with the Sunday acoustic group.I confess, I don't play my Godin MultiUke electric very often. I prefer playing acoustic.

I can understand that.For me it's the weight rather than the loudness. It's just heavier than what I want to lug around.
My Luna solid spruce top concert is the least played, but for an odd reason.
It was my first uke, was bought from HMS, so is perfectly set up and has nice sustain. When I first started playing, I sat in a vintage Victorian rocking chair that sat low to the ground. I never needed a strap as the uke was perfectly positioned to play on my lap, and the armrest was the perfect height to rest my arm.
After about a year, I sat down one day to a huge "crack" and found that one of the legs was cleanly broken off - not surprising as it is about 100 years old. I never found a similar seat to comfortably play that uke, and was gravitating to sopranos at the time anyway. It has a figured soundhole and I am afraid the inlay will snap off while installing a strap button. Still have the chair as a project down the road after retirement. Still have the uke out every now and then as it is my only concert size, and always wonder why I don't play it more.
