Thanks, Lori! Your advice is helpful. I will get the Little Red Tuner. I think the metronome might be useful; I don't need it when I am playing up to speed, but sometimes while I'm learning a new song I tend to speed up over the parts I can do easily. I'll get the Lite Capo as well. It's $18.95 right now at Elderly, which isn't cheap, but having done a quick cost-benefit analysis (okay, I thought it over for several seconds) I believe I spend enough time with the 'uke in my hands to make it worth buying a good capo over a cheap one. They're adorable, also, which doesn't hurt. Getting violet, which I think will look nice with my Blue Dolphin and which will look lovely with my Someday Ko'aloha (or whatever).
Thanks again! I shall keep you posted because I'll also be needing a Uke Leash. Have a friend coming to the US soon and he'll bring a few little things back for me. Sadly, not the Someday Ko'aloha. I'll be in touch!
Best,
Lily
