So far in this COVID mess, I've just been wearing boring solid colored facemasks. When I order more, I may get some fun uke inspired versions, like these ones I've seen online. Anyone here sporting...

They're like rabbits, they just keep multiplying!

I use the pointy end of a safety pin, or wire to push down to release the knot. That's one reason that using beads is a good idea with string-thru bridges, they never get stuck like too-small knots...

We've got some big icicles here. This one is over 3 feet tall. Snapped off a few, and planted them in our snowbank out front, a winter art project, I guess. My daughter said it reminded her of the...

For sale for 2 years? Wazzup? Overpriced, unknown, or both???

Was listening to some Lyle Ritz recently, and ran across this interview he did. It was posted here a while back, but I really enjoyed it again. What a great player.

I heard a Kala brand ukes ad today on FM radio, with uke music being played in the background. It was a local sports radio station, and I was listening on my phone, through the Radio.com app. I...

Yes, so they could have done 1.5" :D

Yup, that converts to 34.13 mm. You either like it, don't, or are indifferent. There's no right answer, just individual preference. If they went with 36mm, like the sopranos and concerts, I'd try...

Yes, the delete post function is available, but only for a while after a post, I'm not exactly sure for how long. Wait too long to delete and it's locked in forever. The delete function can be...
