I'm very careful about giving people advice. I'll provide references and maybe tell them what I would do. You might recall that a few months ago a woman asked my advice about what uke to buy. It was going to be her one and only perfect uke. I provided links to reviews and online sellers.
After weeks of back and forth, she bought a Bonanza Oreo. I received an email from her this morning saying she is "sooooo unhappy" with the uke because she cannot tune it. She brought it to a music store, and the guy suggested D'Addario strings. I'm sooooo glad that I didn't push this uke on her.
I told her to bring it back to the music store and ask the guy to tune it. If he can't tune it, then there is a problem, and he should be able to identify it. I really thought I was through with this when she bought the Bonanza. The guy in the music store should be able to get her on the right track.
