For the first time? Definitely under 25, I got one for my 7th birthday and played until I was around 9 and life...got in the way.
Then, sadly, I didn't pick one up again for another 35 years. That was 4 years ago.

Thank you i do...and it is in most excellent condition. dad comes over every Sunday and he plays the keyboards while i try my best on the ukulele. he says i'm good, the wife says i'm good, but i see others on here who are REALLY good...
Five days before my 33rd birthday I was walking my dog past a local music store that was going out of business. We walked in without any expectations and and walked out with an LU-21C.
Single best purchase I've ever made (for myself).
