Hey - thought I'd join up here and get more involved in the ukulele community online. I'm a long-time guitarist with a formal music education, but recently I got into the ukulele both as a tool to teach with and as a beautiful and fun instrument in its own right.
I own a couple of mid-range Chinese ukes, nothing special although they both have a pleasant tone to my ears. As important as tone is for high-quality performance and recording, I'm a believer in a well-finished instrument combined with solid technique as the fundamentals of any musical journey.
I'm in my 40s, a family man in a village in rural Kent. Im not playing with any groups at the moment but I'm thinking about starting something locally if I can find the time and some willing and able bodies. Having given beginner lessons locally, I'd also like to do more work with younger people.
Nice to be here!
