I have been adding different instruments to our family collection and last week picked up a mandolin. I was originally getting this for my wife to play, but I have been thoroughly enjoying it. The fifths tuning of the mandolin is SO intuitive. Melody lines are so much easier to play (although the strings require MUCH more hand strength). I have invested a lot of my time in learning to play the uke and I have very much enjoyed every part of it. I am feeling the pull of the mandolin. My wife told me last night that she thought the uke was my "gateway instrument". I hope I can find the time to play both.
Has anyone else here had a similar experience? If so how do you keep up practicing/playing several instruments?
