Aloha! I've been lurking on these forums for a while now and, I must say, based off of everyone's signatures, you are quite the ukulele collectors!
Anyway, I am looking for some help on finding a new ukulele to purchase. I currently have a Kala KA-ATP-CTG-CE tenor w/ pickup strung as a low-G and I really like it, however, I think I would like to hold another (no-electronics) tenor with a high-g. I have a lower quality high-g concert, but I have found that I enjoy the size and playability of a tenor scale better (especially for fingerstyle), thus the search for a high-G tenor.
My problem is that I do not have a huge budget ($200-500) compared to a lot of the ukes I see here on the marketplace or just talked about in general. It seems that Kala is the space leader in this price range but I want to do my due diligence before making a purchase to see if anyone has any recommendations for other brands that fit the mold. I am an intermediate/advanced player, play every day, and looking for advice from you wonderful folks.
Should I stick with Kala? They have some cool ukes on their spring sale for around $230 that look good.
Should I save for a Martin Tenor? They don't have a lot of options and they are almost 2X the Kala price.
Does anyone have a tenor gathering dust that fits my mold that they would be willing to part with at a good price?
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance. :shaka::shaka::shaka:
