Very helpful advice everyone. Thanks very much!
I've wondered about this for both guitar and uke. I have found learning new patterns to open up some new sounds in my playing but I don't limit myself to choosing one pattern for a whole song. I...
Hello all. I'm considering buying a concert ukulele but I'm not quite sure what to choose. My budget is ~$450, but could flex some. I'm still new to uke and I've only played tenors, so I'm not...
Thanks again, everyone, for continuing to share your thoughts and experiences.
It sounds like the most important thing is continuing to play and share music with my baby and include her as she...
Great input, everyone. Thanks for sharing.
To be clear, this would not be meant as a gift for her, and I don't retain delusions that she'll learn an instrument any time soon. That will come in a...
I have a Yamaha FG 800 with a JJB passive pickup that sounds good through my Fender Mustang LT25. I made a preset that has no effects and some EQ through the clean amp model.

Working on tuning my uke by ear...

I did have to order from Mim on a...
Hello all,
I believe this my third post here, so please forgive me if I'm violating any UU norms, but I wanted to share about my first ukulele.
I'm a guitar player (enthusiast, no gigs, just...
Welcome! I just signed up here and also have played guitar for some time. I've been learning on a borrowed ukulele. My first uke is on order from Mim at mimsukes.
What type of uke did you get?...
Hello folks. I've been playing guitar for a few years and recently borrowed an Islander tenor uke from my dad. I've really enjoyed learning a few songs and just doing some joyful strumming here and...
