So I'm expecting my first uke tomorrow (Ohana TK-270G), after watching my wife take it up and become obsessed.

There’s already been a bit of UAS in the family, and the number of ukes far exceeds the number of musicians. Given my access to such beautiful ukes, I figured that I should learn to play too!

Thanks...all the text disappeared when I first posted. Hopefully, my edit is now showing.

And yes, the bug is ukulele related. ��

Hi Veritas99. Welcome to the UU Forum. Amazing how these conditions can spread so rapidly.

I hope you and your wife get to play together and make beautiful music.

Oh, and have fun.

My husband has witnessed the uke obsession take ahold of me but so far he hasn't caught the bug. Perhaps he is immune.

Might be for the best. UAS can be contained when only one person is afflicted, but we’re struggling now since we both want more

Perhaps he is the enabler?
