First piece on a new Ukulele......A Kanile'a T-1 K E fitted with low G tuning. It's a great sounding very resonant ukulele so I thought I would dedicate this little waltz to the instrument!
Thanks for listening,
Mike.

Bigtime BRAVO ! ! ! That is a gorgeous piece, and a fine looking and sounding instrument! Skillfully-executed too! Hey, I was also noticing your uke strap, how it fits around the headstock; I don't think I've seen one of those before, and wondering if you could tell us what kind it is? THANKS! -Bill

Thanks Bill. The strap is a Mandolin strap. I bought it in the UK but having just researched it I have discovered it is made in the USA by Souldier. https://www.souldier.us/CustomMandolinStraps.aspx
The end of the strap is a loop that you put around the headstock and then feed the strap back through it. Simple, clever and just works!
Cheers,
Mike

So pretty! Well played!

Bill Sheehan · Aug 16, 2018

Oops! I think I'm realizing that it was actually the bracket from your TUNER that I was looking at, thinking that the uke strap maybe had a little bracket on the end of it that grabbed onto the bottom portion of the headstock! Sorry! My bad! But maybe an idea for an invention???
