Well, these are weird times.
If it's not Covid-19 and its related lock-downs, or social unrest, or the election, or wildfires, or murder hornets, or who knows what else.
How would you measure the Ukulele market now? Is the high-end market good or is it struggling with the uncertainties in the economy? how about the mid-range or entry-level?
Let's define high-end as $1,000+ and mid-range as $500-$1,000, with entry level below $500.
if you want to use different definitions, that's fine.
I don't know if the custom builders are catching up on backorders. I worry about the small businesses making ukes in the US and whether they are doing ok too.
Seems like the stay at home folks have brought a lot of people into the entry level-market so maybe a lot of new ukes there.
What about the used market?
Your thoughts? At least during these odd times, hearing your ukulele journeys (buying selling playing) gives me a little joy and happiness. thank you.
What do you all think?
