This is my first time doing this so I hope it works. I have worked out that "NUD" means "new uke day" (I think!) SO...I received a new uke yesterday. I purchased it from a fellow forum member (Slade. Thanks again) and though it arrived yesterday, I curbed my urge to mess with it and left it in it's case yesterday and overnight to allow it time to acclimate to indoor temps after shipping. That was so hard to do, it's like being a kid at Christmas and having to stare at that pretty box but you can't touch it!
Anyway, this is a Kala elite koa 3 and the wood is so beautiful. It's like art! It is strung with the clear strings, fluorocarbon I think they are called? With a low g string. I have never used anything other than Aquila nylgut strings so this is all new to me. (Advice welcome)
I couldn't be happier to be able to own something so beautiful and I hope I can learn to play well enough to do it some justice!
