My first uke was a Kamaka concert, I bought it about 7 years ago when I was in Hawaii. I can honestly say that I rarely ever played it during those 7 years.
This year in May I went to Hawaii again and I bought a Kanilea Tenor. 5 months later, I've been playing nearly 4 times a week.
So why didn't I play the Kamaka, I've had it for 7 years ?
I think it's because, to me, the tenor was a much better size. 7 years ago all I knew about ukes was everyone played a Kamaka. This year, I did my research and took my time shopping for a uke and the Tenor Kanilea was best for me.
So what should I do with the Kamaka if I don't use it ?
Unfortunately, I can't see myself selling it because it is sentimental to me. I just wish I would have bought a Tenor Kamaka 7 years ago.
Could you imagine how much better I'd be playing a uke if I had the dedication I have now 7 years ago ?
