As the title says, it's here. My Jupiter Creek Soprano. And it's a little thing of beauty. But in all fairness it's closer to concert scale. So I listed in my sig. as Soprano/Concert. I foresee only one issue. My fingers have to build up some callouses. I'll post some pics soon.. In the mean...

Does anyone have an idea about the price of these babies. I tried sending a mail inquiring about prices and or dealer availabity and which ones might carry Kamoa in Norway. All I got in return was Kamoa is currently importing in volume to your country and we direct you to one of those. Or...

Mahalo for the tab..

I've been roped in as studio musician by my friend. And to top it off I got around nine days to get the material in, then we're gonna gig as well. I got the bridge and the chorus nailed. Now I only need the strumming pattern on the verses in. Not bad for an evenings work... Even got a blister...

World champion Swimmer Alexander Dale Oen died Monday night at a training camp in Flagstaff AZ. He was 26 years old. He will be sorely missed. Rest In Peace Alexander..

Having gone through soprano, concert and tenor I've found my concert uke as my go to uke. But I still have an order on a custom sopranino uke by Agrappa ukes. I've yet to try a baritone uke. But mark my words it will come as well. But still of all my instruments. Of which I have more than my...

I just got myself an iPad. And I have found it to be an asset in my musical arsenal. I am by no means an Apple fanboi. Actually I'm more of an apple hater. But that is from a tech standpoint. Of locking down everything and making us depend on a sole software repository etc. but that's why we...

What are the options here? Jupiter Creek and Risa are 2 options. Monkey Wrench is another. But those are the only ones I can think of right now. I'm in the market for a steelstring uke. And sofar Monkey wrench and the Risa LP tenor are the only ones worth looking at. Are there any other options?

I spotted this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Harmony-Ukulele-Handmade-Instrument-and-Ukulele-Girl-Sticker-Lot-/110857047190?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19cf984c96 From the looks of it it should be a simple job to fit new pegs to the one in need of some repairs. Hope someone here snags em...

It seems that mr Juan Pelota AKA Lance Armstrong has been aquitted of the doping charges against him. This to me stinks of something unmentionable. Here's a 7 time Tour De France winner that has systematically doped himself and cheated others of well deserved glory and credit. This would not...

Here's a link to my childhood friend performing a cover of Halvdan Sivertsen's Sommerfuggel i vinterland(Butterfly in winterland). I like this version. And if you watch it till the end you'll see the writer get moved to tears from this rendition. Go Vinnie go. :D He's really come a long way as...

I just walked in the door with a brand spanking new Cordoba Mahogany concert uke. I will post a more detailed review later. But first impressions are solid. The body is made of solid Mahogany. The finish is good, though it has a couple of small dents around the sound hole rosette. Not a big deal...

Guess it's a uke hiatus for me. Last night a moron broke my finger. Glad I blocked. Otherwise the full beer glass would be smashed over my head. I can live with the finger being snapped. What really gets me is the loss of income. I'm out between 6000-7000 usd. s** happens..

Found this on Ebay just a few minutes ago. Hope someone here snags it up...

Ever heard of Gakken Electronics? They make some entertaining DIY kits. Well I found what they call a DIY Mini Electric guitar. It's a four stringed one and it looks like it's around tenor scale. Kinda hard to see from the video attached. But it looks like a fun little addition to my ever...

Who here has thought about getting the Peanut? I'm in the process of aquiring the funds to pull the trigger on one. I've been fortunate enough to see pics of the lil bugger. And I must say. It's an adorable little uke. Just gotta wait a couple of days to get the funds needed. And then it's the...

I'm in the market for a hardcase for my tenor Eleuke. I've looked around. Couldn't find anything appropriate. So I may have to tap into my trade background and bite the bullet. Meaning DIY project. So I'm thinking a square hardcase made out of plywood. Possibly 2 layers. For covering the bugger...
