This is one of my novelty ukes that I'm trying to re-home. I'll be putting up a few more from my collection in the next day or so.
Meet the Peaceful Behemoth
One of those ebay lovelies with a name that you never cross paths with again. Harmonia!
I fell for the dazzling combination of f-holes and tear shaped body. Ooo-wee! There was no size indicated in the listing, so I shot a question to the seller. I was told “concert” so I went ahead and made the purchase.
She’s a big girl. At 28”, she falls right between tenor and baritone. Sure I could have sent it right back, but I was distracted by her beauty. I was sure I needed an ukulele with f-holes. I thought that even though I’m a soprano and concert kinda gal, I could work my way up. Like weight trainers do.
I was also sure I could give her a little more of a voice because she’s just a little quiet. D’Addarios, the popular tenor ones that are made up of a set of acoustic guitar strings, helped a little. But she’s still timid of voice.
This is the uke you get because you like its looks. This is the uke that won’t bother the neighbors in the next apartment or the sleeping significant other. $48 CONUS
