I did this a while ago but don't think I ever posted it. I certainly can't find it on UU today. Apologies if I did though.
The uke is an Ozark 2037 which was a 60th birthday present for me. I love the look and feel of it, but just not the sound it makes - and that despite making allowance for my lack of expertise in playing it. It doesn't ever seem to stay in tune, and the sound is flat and lifeless. It was supposed to have been properly set up before delivery but I don't think it was, and I'm not experienced enough to sort it. So I'm planning to take it to an 'expert' to tinker with - IF I can find one..uke technicians seem to be few and far between around this way!
Anyway, here it is. Any advice re the uke would be appreciated apart from 'Give up Dave, and take up cross stitch instead'! lol
