Although I don't post often anymore, I lurk pretty regularly. I was curious if anyone knew what has happened with bradford? I haven't seen him post lately and his site has not been updated in a while. I hope he is alright. Anyone know him in "real life"? mendel

Ok, So lets say that you pick up a uke to strum in a store, or you are blessed enough to have the time to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful world we share with one another.... When you pick the uke up, before you even think about it, what comes out of the magic little four-string when your...

OK. I have been playing my Donaldson "Hugs and Kisses" Uke for a while now and I absolutely love it. I want to preface tho discussion by saying that the sound quality issue I am experiencing is attributed solely to the strings I am using right now. I recently changed the strings from Fremont...

I've been über busy lately. I just received word that my Dissertation has been approved by my Committee Chairperson. I am almost done, as a result of putting in an enormous amount of time the past few months. My Uke playing has suffered tremendously. Today, I sat down and grabbed my wall hanger...

I play a regular tuned Uke. G, C, E, A. I am curious- if I want to string it as a Low G, Does that change chord formations? Will I be able to play the same songs I know on it the same way? Also- Do I have to modify the instrument itself in any way? I mean, do I need a new saddle? Is Low G just...

Hello Everyone! It has been a while since I had time to post. I am currently awaiting the final approval for me to begin the actual research study for my PhD. I am very excited, and also chomping at the bit, so to speak. With this stage of my paper beginning, I realized that I can be in the...

Hello Everyone! I purchased a guitar a few weeks ago. I am having a great time with it, and I am also playing my uke every chance I get. My question is, what tips do you guys have for balancing my development on two instruments. I love playing both, for very different reasons. The Uke just...

Hello Everyone, I am just dropping a note to say hello and goodbye for a little while. I have my next challenge for my Dissertation before me- the Independent Review Board process in which an independent firm assesses the risk level of my Research project to determine whether or not my research...

Hi Everyone! I've been playing Uke for about a year and a half now and I am thinkIng about picking up guitar as well. I don't want to get a crappy instrument. I've been looking at getting a Dean Performer A/E Koa (a nod to my Uke roots). I've seen some new on eBay for about $300. I will...
