So I've been helping out with a group guitar class at church and there has been talk of adding a ukulele class to the mix. Nothing's set in stone yet, but I'm a greedy instrument hoarder and pounced on it as an excuse to look into getting myself a shiny new toy to play with. Long story short, I have no impulse control and ordered two ukuleles, which are on their way to me and should arrive soon.
I wanted two sizes, so I ordered a soprano and a tenor. For the soprano, I went with a Kala, because everything I read seemed to suggest they're a solid brand. I picked the KA-EBY-S, because I saw the ebony and thought it was lovely, and had an "I have to have it!" moment. The tenor I ordered is a Lohanu LU-MAGE-T. Until last night I had no idea electric ukuleles existed, so I saw this one with the electric pick up and was very intrigued. And from all the reviews I read, most people seem to love them, and it seems like their customer service really tries to do right by their customers and rectify any problems.
Anyway, I was wondering if you had any thoughts on a good starting point for learning how to play? I've studied voice for a long time, and I play piano and guitar, so I read music and have a solid background in theory. I'm hoping that helps! And also curious if you have any thoughts on the models I bought and whether there are any potential issues I should be on the lookout for when they arrive?
