I joined in March, but never announced. I went on a Princess Cruise to Hawaii at the end of February, and learned to play in free classes on the ship. I bought a Kala KA-T at Hilo Guitars & Ukes.
I've made it a habit to play every day, and I must say that practice certainly makes an improvement in my playing ability. I'm even playing songs with 'E' in them.
Like most folks here, one uke is not enough. I 'stole' a Kala KA-ASAC-TGE-3 from a local music store for $198. It was a pre-Marxer model, and has full gold Grover tuners. I contacted Kala for more information on this model, and they had nothing to tell me.
I also picked up a Savannah soprano for $19. After throwing on a set of Martin strings, and lowering the saddle, it plays and sounds great.
I'm really enjoying playing. I've learned a few dozen songs since I started.
