Hi Everyone -
So I recently stumbled on this picture:
I'm not terribly familiar with the artist, but I am drooling over the uke. A little research confirmed that the uke was a Kiwaya K-Wave Tele, but that finding left me with more questions that my research was unable to answer.
- Are these ukes any good?
- Do they come in tenor size (I only found references to soprano and concert size)?
- How hard are these to come by? (eBay turned up nothing and a quick Google Shopping search turned up bupkis.)
- How does everyone feel about guitar-shaped ukes? Does it propagate the stereotype that the uke is just a, "toy guitar?"
Thanks everyone, and happy strumming!
