My sis was in town this wknd for my dad's 81st birthday. They were in Oahu a few weeks ago and spent the day at the Ukulele Festival and picked me up this little guy... and I do mean little, a t-shirt and a Troy Fernandez CD to complete my Troy collection. lol

Congrats on your KoAloha! I see it comes with their new Ko'Air strings. How are they? I've been thinking of picking up a set.

Can't tell from the photo. Is that strung low G?



Maybe "no G" (or C, E, A)

I am so jealous, I have been wanting one of those keychains ever since I first saw them. I'm picking up my new uke from KoAloha on Tuesday and hoping to beg them to let me make one while I am there. Your sis is cool for getting it for you.

Aloha guys. Haha, yeah, I was surprised when she gave it to me. I don't think I've ever seen these before. She said there was a little game at the booth like the one you see at the arcade where you pickup a stuffed toy with a claw. It was all for charity and she had to try a couple times trying to win me one. I'll have to buy her something nice for Christmas.
