Hello my name is Rene I'm new to wanting to play the ukelele I play some guitar but mainly collect them. I recently came across a Martin soprano ukelele I believe is from the 30's

I have one of those Martin sopranos. The gold standard for mahogany sopranos....usually. Welcome, glad you joined us.

Welcome to UU Rene. Glad you joined us. Collecting ukes are much more fun than guitars!

Love to see a pic of your Martin.

Enjoy and keep us posted

Hi there Rene! Lucky you, what a great uke to start with. I had a chance to play one at a local uke group. A lady there was given one when she was six and growing up in Hawaii and still had it. It was lovely. Enjoy yours and give it much love. Glad you joined us.
