My new Blackbird Farallon uke arrived on Friday, 7-Dec-2018, and so far I've just been noodling around on it and letting the strings settle in. The strings are Oasis Warms with a Low G, by the way.
I ordered it directly from Blackbird Guitars with the gloss sunburst finish, front position dots, side sound port, and MiSi pickup. I received it exactly eight weeks after placing the order.
It certainly looks and sounds amazing, but I'm not yet sure what I think of it. It's very different than any other uke I've owned, and it feels different. I get a sense that I'll need to spend a lot of time playing it, or maybe even play this ukulele exclusively for a season, in order to become accustomed to it. Anyway, pics or it didn't happen, righto?
