Have you ever picked up your uke and thought "hey it sounds better today"? I can't explain it but that was me yesterday. Prior to yesterday I was hearing a bit of ringing on the A string. That baby was making beautiful music last night. Not sure what changed? Strings were ringing clear and the uke sounded sweet. It is about 4 months old now. Could this be what they mean by the uke opening up? I play it every single day, anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 or 3 hours (weekends). It is getting used and maybe things are settling in? I don't know what do you all think?
