The guy in the beard and pony tail is playing a charango.
Thanks Dave
I originally tuned it CGDA and was disappointed in the sound. Then I changed it to GDAE and the sound improved greatly to my ear as did the playability, plus I can just read music for it...
Stagehand thanks for the link.
Bluesy, I have to agree with different paths being energizing.
My wife and I drove down to Red Wing MN from Minneapolis today to Hobgoblin Music. They build harps there and have a regular music store upstairs. I bought an Ashbury tenor guitar. I have not been...
LorenFL,
After your experiences, you should apply for a position with KALA and help them retool their Waterman series to correct the intonation.
I do have an iRig Cast Mic that I use with J4T. I had bought for daughter to use with an iPhone but I don't think she ever used it. I think it improves the recording a bit but I can record without it.
I installed this program, J4T, on my Android the other day. I have Reaper and other programs on computers around here and one or 2 old 4 track cassette recorders but my phone is with me most of the...
When you say NEW computer, do you mean new to you but used or brand new?
Here is one take on optimizing Windows 10 for recording:...
Thanks for the reply. Now I'll have to leave the couch and head to the basement to finish up.
I'm with SailingUke here. You would need pliers and a big hammer to incorrectly install a 9 Volt battery.
Greetings,
This is not about gluing up ukuleles but it is a table meant for recording the uke in my wife's office.
Titebond Original directions say clamp for at least 30 minutes. Do you...
Welcome to UU,
If the neck is not bowed or twisted and intonation is good, there is no reason this uke will not work for you. If you play any open string, then play the 12th fret of that same...
Holy moly Rocky! I bow to you sir.
This is something I never had hanging from my cube at my pre-Covid workplace. I get to take a uke breather now and then.

The triple strum is something you should be familiar with also.

Have to say no because I only wipe down a uke occasionally. My wife is a hospice chaplain so she wipes down her OUTDOOR uke with disinfectant when she plays music with patients.
In theory I...
Reply from Scott from Outdoor Ukulele:
"We wipe down our parts with Dawn soap before assembly and 90% isopropyl alcohol before shipping. Both of these are safe to use on the polycarbonate."
Thanks RafterGirl,
I will pass that info on to my wife.
The link didn't work for me. Did someone refinish it along the way?
We have 3 Mainlands at our house, tenor mahogany, concert mahogany, baritone mango. Mainland puts on Ukulele World Congress every year, (except this year because of the pandemic). They have a great,...
Not shy but I had sent them an email with no reply. Possibly they are swamped with the virus going on, so I asked here. Little snarky today?
Thanks for the suggestion, I see there is a freecycle.org in Minneapolis. I might also just put them in one of those tiny free libraries.
Thanks all for the replies. I have a bottle of isopropyl alcohol 91% in the basement.
Thanks
Hello,
I just got my wife an Outdoor Ukulele so she doesn't leave her Mainland or Favilla in the car on frozen or steaming hot Minnesota days. She is a hospice chaplain and so visits people in...
Welcome from Minneapolis.
