I posed this question on a guitar forum, and found the answers to be interesting/fun. So, I thought I'd do the same thing here and see what we get. This is just for fun. :) I tried to cover all the bases. No fair critiquing the pollster. ;)

We love our ukes and we share pictures of them regularly (after all, this is a uke forum :rolleyes:;)). Knowing many of you also play other instruments, I thought I'd start a fun thread where we could show our favorite non-uke instruments. What you got? I'll start. My first love is...

Can anyone tell me the name of the song Corey is playing here? I have most of it figured out and just love it, but would like to know the song name, in case there is a full version (so I can learn/play the song in its entirety). Maybe it's not even a song, but rather just a clip of his own that...

First, let me say that this is such a friendly, helpful and positive forum. Kuddos to the admins and members. I'm posting here to explain where I ended up on my uke journey and hope you continue to accept me, even though I'm a unique type of "ukulele" player. I started guitar in 1973. Along...

I'm shopping for a second guilele to join my Pono MB-6 (which I love). I'd like a second one to use in a different tuning. There's rumors that the MB-6 and AB-6 are no longer available, but I have to call and see if that's true. In the meantime, I'm also looking at the Flight GUT850. I'm not...

I had an extra Sherrin's Threads (ST) uke strap that wasn't assigned to a uke, and I wanted new strap for my O'ahu hard case. I had a couple extra swivel clasps in the perfect width in my stash. In a matter of 10 minutes, I had the ends removed off the uke strap and the swivel clasps put...

I'm going to be swapping out the strings on my new baritone to the new Oasis "Southcoast" Linear Baritone Fluorocarbon (UKE-8200BL) string set. I m not asking for recommendations on strings at this point, I'd really like to try these. They sound like exactly what I'm looking for. My question...

I'll make this brief, since most of you know about the Kala solid acacia series. I just picked up this baritone (KA-SA-B), after regretfully selling one years ago. With the advice of a fellow UU member, I decided to order it through Aloha City Ukes. My experience was wonderful. Matt gave me a...

I'm going to be trying fluorocarbon strings on my Pono guilele. On the tie bridge, is the common method of tying the string (going around the string) twice sufficient to hold the fluorocarbon strings from slipping? Maybe the string type is irrelevant, but I wanted to make sure.

Probably a dumb question... Can you (would you) put a wound string on a uke with a slotted bridge? (My first uke with a slotted bridge.)

Check out Legacy Straps (legacystraps.com) for great choices on 3/4" or 1" uke straps. I got 6, in the 1" width. I had them make them adjustable up to 54" (I needed that length for my mountain dulcimers). They are customizable to any length and are available with 1 or 2 strap ends. There are...

I found an older thread re a review of the Legacy Straps, but thought it might be better to start a new thread with my question. They look like quality straps. Though I'm a uke player, I'm actually looking to purchase a narrower strap like these 1" straps for use with my mountain dulcimers...

I just received my new Hercules uke stand, the UKS100B, that I think they just introduced last fall. It is adjustable (height) to fit any size uke, it has their Auto Grip System, and it has foam padding at all contact points. I've attached some photos with my Pono MB-6, which is baritone size...

I was looking for a new strap for my Pono.....one that was narrow, so I could leave it on while in the case. I purchased this strap from Amazon (available from other sellers too): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BGTZ06W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have owned several...

I received my Pono MB-6, Mahogany Guilele from HMS yesterday. This is my first order from HMS and my first Pono. I want to say that I'm really happy with both. It took about 3 weeks to get it shipped, as HMS is currently working with less staff. But the wait was worth it. The full set-up is...

SOLD: Uke Accessories Package: 2 Capos, Uke Thong, Picks, Stickers SOLD Hi! I'm downsizing my uke collection and, as a result, clearing out some accessories that have had little to no use. I've packaged them together here for one low price. $25 - which includes free USPS Flat Rate Priority...

I just ordered a new Pono AB-6 from HMS. It comes with this case: https://www.theukulelesite.com/accessories/cases/hardshell-wooden-cases/new-oahu-hardshell-ukulele-case.html I don't see where it says in the description whether or not it comes with a shoulder strap (though the pictures show it...
