Oh thanks so much! That is a great instrument and a great price...

Hi all, thanks for you replies. I didn't go for it in the end as it was indeed a UB1 - the seller was kind enough to send me a sound sample and the UB1 really sounds inferior to the UB2 - which was actually the size I tried and loved. Looking at UB2s now and the one I tried is upwards of 2000...

Hi all, I am in the market for a banjo ukulele and I tried a priceless UB1 the other day that I loved (it wasn't for sale). I found this one on reverb and it seems like a great price and in decent condition but I wonder if anyone knows about how to date it? Or whether it is all original...

Hi guys, I have a Timms and totally love it but noticing that my nails are damaging the French polish somewhat, I have been searching for a thread on how to take care of french polish instruments but not found one yet - any ideas?

Hi all, I'm Emma (@ukulelewoodshed if you want to check me out on IG), and I can't believe it took me so long to get here! I am an avid uke player (of course) and play mostly old swing and blues stuff, I also have a small band call The Lava Birds (@thelavabirds) and we do swing covers and close...
