Hello from New York!

[ChrisTrietsch]

Hello! I'm a new member, excited to be a part of this community. Anyone else here from NY or close to it?

I am an ukulele instrumentalist and luthier so I build and play my own handmade ukuleles. Looking forward to learning a lot from the other members of this site and sharing my original music and handmade ukuleles with everyone. Thanks!

Thanks so much Joe! That's my personal tenor that I made 10 years ago! I used it in all my performances and recordings, but I'm thinking of building myself an upgrade soon

Hello from Upstate Manhattan! Where did you learn to build ukes? That's something I might want to try my hand at in the future.

Wow, super cool! I am performing a show in Manhatten at Rockwood Music Hall on January 8th if you'd like to attend, It'd be great to meet you! Do you play any open mics or with any groups/events in the area? Here is the link to my show =) https://www.seetickets.us/event/Christopher-Trietsch/453822

My Dad is a luthier and he taught me! There are great ukulele building kits you can start with and also online courses i can recommend if you're interested!
