When you go to a Jim Beloff workshop and he brings factory "second" Flukes and Fleas he's selling at a great price and a bunch of great books. I love my Fluke and this book on the history of the uke is terrific. The workshop was great fun and I met lots of other ukulele fans from my area.

Who has been picking those Uke Minutes pictures of Aldrine to post on the UU homepage. I know he is this strapping handsome troubadour but very time I open the site I think, ":eek: That poor guy needs to be in rehab". I don't know about you but I think it's too much of a coincidence that this...

Aldrine did his usual great job with his lesson yesterday but I can't find it. We all saw him saving it. Do they do some editing before they post it. Last week's lesson on Brezzin' was lost. I hope that's not the case again. :(

I've done a search but no luck on this. I'd like to get a mic to record my uke on Garage Band. I currently plug my electric guitar directly to my Mac with great results. I've been debating getting a Fluke with a pickup but the consensus here is that a mic would be best. I also like the...

I'd like to record my uke but I don't know if I should get a a pickup or a mic. It seems that the mic would be more versatile but when I tried the mic on my computer to do a Garage Band track it sounded terrible. Any advice would be welcome.

Ian, This is a great collection. It must have been a huge project. A most sincere THANK YOU!

Jim Beloff is doing a workshop at the local community music school. He's talking about his new book "The Ukulele; A Visual History" and doing a Quick Start Ukulele workshop. I am mostly interested in his book. Have any of you been to one of his talks?

I volunteer at at local museum every year to help out with their antique and classic boat show. That was yesterday. I usually hang out at the front gate and ask people if they'd like to make a voluntary donation to the museum since the show is free to the public. The museum's director used to...

OK... on the map. 2nd in CT

My new Kamaka arrived today. It is just an absolutely beautiful instrument. I love the tone and the feel of the neck. The action is just perfect no buzzing at all. The first thing I noticed was how light it was compared to my laminate. Light... but sturdily constructed. The symmetry of the grain...

I can't believe that I just did this. A new Kamaka HF-3 Tenor will be in my hands tomorrow. Kanaka turned me on to Mandolin Brothers and they were just fantastic to deal with and had a great selection. I was very concerned about buying a high-end instrument like this over the internet but...

I really have a major case of UAS for a Kamaka tenor. I wrote to them a few days ago to inquire 1. if the factory direct 10% discount was still in effect, 2. cost of cases (because they are no longer listed on the website), and 3. cost of shipping to CT. I haven't heard anything. Is this...

All I wanted to do was to get something to strum while hanging out on my sailboat. I thought about a 3/4 size guitar but it really was still too big for a small boat. Then there was this little ukulele. A Mitchell MU100..... perfect! I realized that it wasn't a professional grade instrument but...
