Hi everyone,
I purchased my first ukulele 12 o 13 years ago in Belgium (I live in Europe), a Tennessee MAUI that costed me €80 back in the day. I'm not very talented and didn't practice much for some years but I've got the uke bug again and I'm making some tiny progress.
I'm traveling to Omaha and Hawaii in a couple of weeks, and I was thinking of getting a new uke delivered to my office in Omaha. I though about getting a travel ukulele to play for a bit the couple of weeks that I will be over there, but I also want something that I will keep using afterwards, so the Kala Waterman is out of the question. I thought about getting the Makala Mako, but I'm not sure how it compares to the one I have at home, as it's cheaper than what I've paid, but not sure how much mine would be nowadays since they don't make them anymore.
I also thought about getting one in Hawaii but I've read that authentic Hawaiian ukes go for more than $500 and that's a out of my budget right now.
Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks,
Elena
