Hi all,
I'm not ready to get into the marketplace yet, but I'm considering buying a second uke. My thoughts are straying along the lines of a solid-body electric, something entirely different to my Makala MK-SN, which I love dearly and play often.
I know very little about electric instruments generally, and all I know about electric ukes is that I think I'd like to have a go at playing a solid-body, maybe a concert size, and hopefully something that is not too expensive.
I've had a browse around the net and I like the idea of the Risa stick, and the eleuke 100 series has appeal.
I'm not sure if it's possible, but can any of the solid body electrics use non-steel strings?
Would anyone like to share their experiences? Tips, tricks, traps for the unwary? I'd love some input from the forum while I save up a few dollars and contemplate a purchase.
