Nice thought-provoking blog post. I have a handful (figuratively, not literally) of ukuleles -- an Ohana mahogany baritone, a Honu koa tenor and a Kala acacia tenor (one reentrant, the other low G) a Kala solid mahogany concert (more plinky than a tenor, but more comfortable for me to play than a soprano) a makala dolphin (my keep-in-the-car ukulele), a tenor flea (my office ukulele) and a Kala thinline uke (for travel) -- and I justify each by telling myself that each serves a different purpose. I do play some more than others, but I also play them all. My dilemma is that I want to someday get a K brand tenor, but I can only justify an additional ukulele by either giving it a purpose different than the purposes of all my other ukuleles or getting rid of the ukulele whose purpose the K brand would assume. Anyway, I was wondering about your herd. It seems that like me, you have ukes that are sufficiently different from each other to justify having them all, and the ones you want - the banjolele with resonator or the u-bass, for example, would serve different purposes than the ukes you already have. But, out of curiosity, why two, and soon to be three, dolphins?
