    Sold MP (Mike Pereira) 8-string tenor uke. Like new

    I have decided to part with my MP 8-string tenor, since I hardly ever play it. I am looking for a nice home for this beautiful instrument, which was built by Mike in Nov. 2011. It has a few small dents/scratches below the fretboard and soundhole. The back & sides are East Asian Rosewood with a...

    Always With Me-Joe Hisaishi (from Spirited Away, arranged for Sayyadina by thatguy431

    I have tried the song several times now. The tab is really good, sounds wonderful and the song is well within my capabilities to master, it will just take some time. Thanks again dude! And whenever you have that tweaked version you were talking about let me know.

    How to prevent cracking while bending?

    Hi all. I started building my first uke and I am finding it really hard to bend the side with my home made heat gun bending iron. I tried several times now. I always spray the wood with water before bending and repeat that when necessary. The iron gets rather hot. First tries were with veneer...

    Song Help Request eleanor rigby by the beatles

    There are great videos on youtube where some girl named Taimane plays Eleanor Rigby but I didn't find tabs for that. I think she transposed a few steps higher. Maybe someone wants to tab one of those out? :) Or just figure out the chords. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgRzWWBhwkk...

    Hey Guys. I am trying to build my first Uke from scratch and have some difficulties finding the right kind of wood. I have been talking to several carpenters on the phone and most of them try to sell me some kind of veneer (2mm thick) as top and back. The thickness is ok, but I am not sure if...

    Song Help Request BEIRUT's "the penalty".

    D DUDU / D DUDU works quite well. Once you get used to that you can go from there and play around with it to make it sound more like the way Zach is playing it in the video.
