I am a cellist of 4 years, looking to migrate to the ukulele as a secondary instrument (mini-cello).
Looking to purchase a ukulele at a price of no more than $60. Originally I was debating between the Kala KA-15S and the Lanikai LU-21 (both out of box), but then I read about the importance of having ukuleles setup. So now I'm leaning towards the Makala MK-S from HMS.
Questions:
1) How important is set-up?
2) Between the Kala KA-15S, the Lanikai LU-21 and the setup HMS MK-S, and an EI Makai UK55, which do you recommend for me?
3) What are some more "setup" places other than HMS and Mim's?
4) Do you have any other uke recommendations for me?
Another thing that worries me: the HMS MKS is $5 than the lowest price for a stock MKS on Amazon. So what kind of setup occurs: a thorough one or just some dude playing a few notes and passing it along a conveyor belt?
This is my first post, so I'm not quite sure if this is in the right place.
Thanks,
RR.
