I recently got a chance to play Kala's 8 string tenor ukulele. This is what it looks like:

UAS aside, I liked the full sound that comes from 8 strings. So I thought I'd ask people who play 6 or 8 string ukuleles (1) what they like about their 6 or 8 string ukuleles, (2) how playing them is different from playing a four string ukulele, either in playing technique or in the use of 6 or 8 string ukuleles for certain music genres or certain styles (fingerpicking vs. strumming) of playing, and (3) which 6 or 8 string ukulele(s) would you recommend based on your own experience or on things you've heard? Thanks!
