I know I always seem to post the threads about my moral issues, but I'm having a bit of a problem here and I figured I'd ask you guys. I've been getting back into playing the uke, but I noticed that it's very hard to play my KoAloha Concert. I think my judgement was clouded because I was so excited about getting it that I didn't even realize how hard a concert is for me to play. The only concert that feels comfortable to me now is my KPK since it has a wider neck. I was thinking about acquiring a tenor, but the only way I could do that is to trade my KoAloha.
Now this doesn't seem like a problem if you don't know about this Ukulele. I got this KoAloha from a combination of things. I was helped out a bit from KoAloha themselves and a member on this board, plus a huge chunk of my own money. Those are all the details I'm allowed to give. So I'm feeling a bit torn. In some ways, this uke feels like a bit of a gift, but it isn't getting the playing time it deserves.
Would an attempt to trade it make me a bad guy? I feel like trading instead of selling is a bit better. I was just looking for some opinions. I can still play it, and it sounds great so I could tough it out and be perfectly fine.
UPDATE - A simple change in strings completely gave the uke a new feel, more of what I'm used to and is perfect.
