I use whatever strings I want and have had no problems with any. When I go to a different string, I prefer steel flatwound, either the Gold Tone/La Bella MBLS 25" all steel, or the Galli flatwound...

There are a few no-button straps available, but I strongly suggest you add strap buttons, very secure way to play. Here are a couple of links for no-button straps:

As Arcy said. Do you realize that regular bass is played one note at a time captain-janeway? So it does not matter at all the measurement of your finger spread, unless you plan on playing some very...
You mean a bass uke is not small enough? I played rhythm guitar for almost 50 years and was often told I should play bass because I have good rhythm and feel, but I didn't want to be encumbered a...
What I've noticed is not to use fancy quote marks or apostrophes, also symbols or punctuation that's not very basic.
Here's my spalted and flame mango uke. "Taste is in the mouth of the devourer."

You can start with a bass headphone amp that plugs into the output jack that is very compact, and use a headset with it. Here's a couple (they actually look like they were made by the same...
This followup post includes a statement about bodily functions, stop here if it will make you uncomfortable. After never drinking coffee, then doing so last week, I began having incontinence in the...
The ones listed on Amazon are sold and shipped by Rondo in New Hampshire.
At those prices, get both. I have seven Hadean bass ukes, acoustic and solid body.

I'm 71 and never drank hot coffee or tea, just wasn't a hot drinker. Recently I've been reading that a couple of cups of coffee a day is good for you, especially if you have gaul stones, which I do,...
That one shows, "Notify Me" which means they're not in stock.

I have one bass uke that I had converted from a junior guitar, it came with a mic/disc style piezo pickup and it too amplifies every touch, scrape, release of the strings, which drives me nuts. A...
I wanted a set of black strings for my all bamboo uke, which I modified with black fret and side markers, black nut and saddle, black string beads and black and gold strap buttons to match the...
Not on your life. I will never give it up. I use the D'Addario Micro, very unobtrusive.

I have 5 of them, and 2 shorter scale. I buy them because the price allows me to make major modifications, and they're built well. The one stumble is the saddle assembly, the volume of one or more...
Have no idea, it was used with the strings on it and since I already planned on replacing the strings, I didn't ask the seller.
I never listen listen to those "warning," I will test it myself and make my own determination. The Multiuke I bought here a couple of years ago had a low G string and it sounded fine, but I prefer...
SOLD I closed this thread.
A few days ago I saw a Multiuke on eBay, listed for about $1000, but, I find mine to be much louder than I expected when unplugged. It's a great instrument.

In the seven plus years I've been a UU VIP member, I've only had to block one person, otherwise everyone is always very nice. I will admit that I have on rare occasion been harsh, for which I have...
Just received another set of 23" scale Galli flat wounds that tonight I'm going to put on my Yamaha junior guitar I had converted to a bass uke.

I got very tired of having to restring the poly strings, so I'm getting rid of all of mine, just bought a set of Galli 23" flat wound for my custom SG bass, but the spools on the tuners were too...
