i've just started searching for our first ukulele (thanks for all the helpful advice out there!) and came across a reasonable deal on a used Flea on CL. Not as local as i had hoped, so i'd need to buy it sight unseen and have it shipped. from everything i've read, they are pretty bombproof so i suspect this would be no problem. my question is, would you recommend it? it seems like a reasonably safe bet, but what do i know? my options locally (as in, go and try it) are pretty limited so this might be a good way to get a well respected instrument at a fraction of the cost. oh, i have looked at the ukulele site and found some options there, but wondering if the hybrid construction of the flea (vs all wood) is the way to go, considering this will be in the hands of a 6 yr old?
thanks for your thoughts!
