Wow...were off and rolling here. As for mentioning that I liked the (what I interpreted as ) the purist mindset as it pertains to the soprano ukulele, I think purists must exist to protect the foundations of something. I love tenors, concerts and all other sizes because they all sound beautiful. Hell some people think that its a shame to play non hawaiian music on the uke. They have there place in this as well as the Jakes and the Aldrines out there. One builds and holds a strong foundation.....the others job is to be bold and expand the boundries. Nothing wrong with being a purist...I myself am not, but I can respect those of you who are. It all boils down to what you wanna hear and how it fits your hands I guess.
I think I may be going off on a tangent so I'll pause now and take my ADD medication.
