It occurs to me after reading quite a few threads here, that Uke players do not seem to be as "snobbish" about their instruments as acoustic guitarists are. It is a well known phenomenon that guitarists will often "buy a headstock". Does this happen in ukuleleland too? What are the Collings, Martins, Olsons, Hendersons Taylors and Gibsons of the ukulele world? (Leaving aside, of course, ukes by those makers). FWIW, it is safe to say that I am a Martin guitar snob, and while this is true, I am already building up to looking at "quality" ukuleles for future acquisition...and they need not necessarily be Martins.
