    Holy CRAP...This uke is so beautiful I just about had a heart attack and died

    This is the ukulele that I’d imagine a mermaid would play. I kinda like it.

    This is good stuff. I had a feeling a touch of natural reverb would sound great on your music. Your vocals sound especially strong on these videos. And as always your lyrics are stellar.

    To the more experienced players - Have you held onto your first ukulele?

    Well I’m only four years in but I’m pretty sure I’m a lifer. Also I still have my first uke (a Kala Learn to play soprano) and I know I’ll never get rid of it because: it’s not worth selling, it’s pretty beat up and I actually really like the sound and the way it plays. Being a cheap uke I don’t...

    The Raven Colony: Voran's diary

    I’ve seen one indigo bunting in Michigan and it was really cool. While I love our local birds, I’ll admit that for the most part their colors aren’t all that striking (sparrows, robins, grackles, etc.)

    What's the big deal with E major?

    I agree. I play it 4447. I love E7 though, one of my favorite uke chords along with A7

    After the breakup, I got all broke up

    Yup, I had a vintage Kamaka soprano that I loved, but I became convinced that I needed a mahogany Kiwaya so I sold to fund the purchase of said Kiwaya. I had the Kiwaya for a month before I sold it. I knew I’d regret selling the Kamaka and I was right. Later on I saw the very same Kamaka I sold...

    Looking for honest feedback

    I like sound samples myself. I don’t really care if they are not a 100% reproduction of the actual sound. I still find them useful mostly true to the actual sound. Jake Wildwood usually posts recordings of the instruments he works on and even tries to describe the sound in written form, and I...

    Aww I’m sorry. You went above and beyond what most people would do. Doesn’t make it any easier though…

    Soprano, Concert, Tenor, Baritone: When/How Did You Know?

    Well I bought a cheap Kala starter soprano for my wife for Christmas a few years ago and she didn’t take to it, but I did immediately (I’ve played guitar for a long time so it was pretty quick to get going). Since then I’ve tried all the scales though only a baritone once. While I like all the...

    The Raven Colony: Voran's diary

    That reminds me of this video I watched a while back about a man in Japan who raised a praying mantis and kept it until it’s death. It was surprisingly sweet and sad when the little guy died.

    The Raven Colony: Voran's diary

    A friend of mine growing up had a basement full of huge terrariums with all kinds of cool lizards. It was like a zoo and I loved going down there to look at them.

    I had to look that species up. Very beautiful snake!

    The Raven Colony: Voran's diary

    There have been studies that say crows and ravens can recognize and remember human faces. They are really intelligent birds and fascinating birds that I wish weren’t associated with doom and death. I also feel the same way about snakes.

    Mele Mahogany Concert

    Thanks! Yeah Mele makes a good uke. I’d say a step above a similarly built Ohana.
