I always see people with a bunch of ukes so I'm wondering what's your favorite overall uke in your collection

I only have 2 so it would have to be my style 3 Martin (compared to my s1)

Hmm, I have a great deal of sentimental value towards my Kamaka and Kamoa ukes, but if I could keep only one, it would probably be my KoAloha.

Someone once told me that three or more of anything counts as a collection, so I guess my three ukes qualify. The one that gets played the most and goes everywhere with me is my Kamaka pineapple.

My favorite is the KoAloha I recently bought from AncientMatingCalls. It's a great player.

I cherish my Glyph Custom Tenor, but my KoAloha long neck soprano is right up there with it.

I have some really nice ukes, so it's hard to pick a favorite... but my Martin Style 0 is the one I go to most right now.

These were my first ukes and I'm a sentimental old fool
I am also quite sentimental, so the Kamaka I bought on Maui will always be in my heart, but I must say my Moore Bettah is sharing the spot right next to it.

My broken Lyon & Healy Camp Uke is my favorite (and my first) ukulele.

Probably my Style 3 Martin. I've loved the looks of that model since I first started playing, and finally got a good deal on one.
I also really love my Gibson Uke 3 (which is "in hospital" right now, having a back brace re-glued and a couple of bits of new wood grafted onto its bridge). It's about the same age as the Martin (right around 1930), and while it doesn't sound quite as good, it is significantly less common. So it gets serious cool-factor points!

I love my Kamaka Soprano above all others.

I love my Pono, but my favorite uke is my Johnny Marvin. I've never played a single instrument like it, it just begs to sing. Over eighty years and thousands of miles old, and it's still singing loud and clear. Amazing.
My Griffin Tenor. I have a few high end ukes but the Griffin has such a deep, mellow tone and the neck plays like baduh; so much so I'm possibly selling my others as I don't play them like I do the Griffin. I reach for him first.
