As some of you know, I have gone through some life altering experiences (not a sex change or a divorce but am expecting my first child as well as furlough days) and I was debating thinning out the herd since one can only play one uke at a time. Anyways, I haved some nice ukes. I'm not going to brag but I do. Getting rid of one isn't the easiest thing to do. So after much thought and prayer (yes, I actually pray about these things) I asked for a sign on what path I should take.
I attended the Uketoberfest hosted by ukuleleblues in South Carolina yesterday 10/16 with DeG and got to meet some really cool ukers (scarecrow and mim) as well as some other really cool ukers (Charleston Hotshots and Yesterukes) and I was taking out my two ukes that I had decided to sell. As I took the Kamaka with curly koa out of it's case, I couldn't help but notice a ding in the lower side. This ding pretty much was the sign I was looking for. I have no idea how it got in the uke since I am fairly careful with them but I knew that I would not be able to get the price I wanted for it. So I suppose that my prayer was answered. It seems that neither uke was going to be for sale. It seems that the Kamaka is destined to be mine (even though it is my 4th favorite uke). Have you ever felt that a certain uke is yours no matter how bad you want to let it go away?
