Hey! The UPS guy brought me a box today!
As you can see, I opted for the Matte Maple version, just for something different. And different it is! This is my first banjo-uke, and it's an entirely different animal from a normal ukulele. I'm already driving my wife crazy, so I'll have to play it when she's not around. I mainly bought it so that I could play with other people and be heard. My neighbors down the street are very good bluegrass musicians (the entire family), and when I've played a regular uke at jams at their house, I get totally drowned out by guitars, mandolins, fiddles and banjos.
Once the strings get settled in, I'll do a little video, and after I get used to it, a review. Thanks for picking out one with decent figuring, Mike!
