Thanks, but I'm not selling any of them, each will be raffled to my uke group of about 70 regular members with the poceeds going to The Ukulele Kids Club. In the past, the ukes I've raffled to my group gets from $500 to $700 each in raffle tickets, much more than if I sold them outright.I'm drooling a bit over those Bruce Wei Arts ukes you have there... I'll let you know if UAS gets the better of me...
How do we enter the raffle? I just came back from the theukc.org but I didn't see any mention of how to enter...(I deleted my original post inadvertently, sorry to all for the nice replies I received.)
I have nerve damage to my neck and shoulders from radiation treatments for cancer in 1973, which forces me to sit and slouch when I play ukulele. I'm finding that standard depth ukes are a problem, but the thinline Lanikai bocoté tenor I have is comfortable. So I decided to buy a couple more tenor cutaway thinline/travel ukes and put up my standard depth ukes for raffle to my uke group and donate the money to The Ukulele Kids Club, which we've been doing for the last 7 years in the amount of almost $8000. I'm keeping the Bocoté and Godin Multiuke and ordered a Kala Travel spruce with spalted maple (great deal for $170 shipped), and another Thinline Lanikai, flame maple (discount to $300 shipped).

That's awesome... thanks!Since we don't have honorary members, how about this; we meet twice a week on Zoom, Mondays for beginners from 3pm to 4:45p, and Thursdays for beginning intermediates from 9:30am to 11:15, Pacific time. Participate in either of those to officially become a member, contact Cali Rose via her web site, www.calirose.com. We also meet every other Sunday from 12:45p to 2:30 on the Jackson Cafe outdoor patio, so the next time you're in LA, you can participate in that too.
