Hi!
A friend lent me a tenor Lanikai LU21 and I can't put it down, I'm hooked to ukes... and I'm gonna get my 1st one! I've been researching in the last week (although I have a background on stringed instruments) before I chose. It won't the begginers uke you buy when you're not sure if you'll keep on playing.
For now I'm decided on the concert size but I want something better than the LU21, which I think is fine but I'd like something better sounding, with a solid top (I'm leaning to mohagony), maybe between $150 and $250 (i wonder if you can get soundboard bracing at these prices...)
I suppose all brands within the LU21 price range are very similar so I feel i should aim over $150, as I want something better sounding than the uke my friend lent me. What do you think, is it possible to get anything better in the $150-$250 range? any suggestions, models, brands? Thanks!
