    Making a cheap uke better? Eventual give-away?

    Okay, so I got my replacement Makala via UPS a couple days ago from Kala. They sent me a replacement when I told them about the decal that was flaking off around the sound hole. The decal has completely flaked off and now there is a lighter discolored ring where the decal used to be...

    KALA Customer Service is Top Notch!

    About a week ago I got a Makala MK-S Soprano ukulele. It's my first ukulele and I couldn't afford much beyond that. I know it's cheap and I didn't care. I just wanted a decent ukulele in my hands to take my mind off of things and learn how to play in the process. Well, a few days into having...

    Mac-N-Cheese! What's your recipe?

    Okay, this is admittedly a lame topic, but I was thinking today, as I was making some mac-n-cheese, "I wonder what everyone else does with their mac-n-cheese." Sometimes I add tuna and peas. Sometimes I'll add hamburger or chopped hotdogs. What do you do? :)

    Clip-on digital ukulele tuners?

    In one of the videos, I saw Aldrine talk about the Play On digital tuner. I did a Google search for Play On and found nothing. Anyone know where to get these or if there are other tuners you recommend? Thanks!

    Cheap Ukes?

    What's the cheapest ukelele worth having? I'm unemployed at the moment and dying to find something cheap or free. I'm sure I'll probably have to wait until a job comes along before I can get anything, but I was too curious not to ask.
