Eddy Finn Minnow

Hi,

My daughter is an Elementary School teacher teaching music to K-5 grade. She has been teaching 3, 4, and 5th graders the Ukulele. She was able to get 20 student model ukuleles donated to her school which started her out. Then with 4 or 5 other assorted Ukes that were borrowed she has been able to get Ukes in all of their hands. She has an afternoon Music Club that plays Ukuleles. They have a concert in Jacksonville Saturday(5/17)!

She is in need of more decent Ukuleles for school. The kids seem to love the colored ones. Does anybody have the Eddy Finn Minnow? There is a 6 pack of them in various colors for $199.

Please let me know if you think the Minnows would be a good choice or if there is a better choice for $30 to $35 each. Money is tight at school and she will probably end up buying these herself.

Thanks,
Glenn

I guess maybe I should have posted this in Buying Tips. Can it be moved there?

I did find some talk there about the Minnow Ukuleles.

Thanks,
Glenn

The Makala Dolphin would probably be a better bet. You'll probably be able to get a deal on a bunch of them if you buy them at the same time. There are a few dealers on UU who might be able to cherry pick half a dozen good ones out of a batch.

How very cool! I was an elementary music teacher/band director in my previous life. I would have loved to teach ukulele to my classes. I wish her a ton of luck! I have also heard good things about the dolphins.

Wow, this is really cool!

Please let us know what you come up with, Glenn!
