Hello everyone,
I'm looking to buy an ukulele, big problem is I am from Chile. My best option at the moment is to buy it online, have it delivered at an address in Miami and there have someone to pick it up and bring it here (I believe the shipping costs to here would be very high, since I don't know any online store that delivers here, tell me if you know one!).
So well, since it is a big effort, this would be one in a long time buy, so I need all the help I can get.
I have played for around a year or so with a tahitian-ukulele and now I'm looking for a better sounding one. Since I can't visit any shops that sells them or try one, I can only ask you which ones you believe to be good ukuleles and what price range would be enough to get me a good one (I plan to spend around 200 dollars, but if you believe that wouldn't get me a good enough one I can save more).
Also, which good stores sell online and deliver to Miami (hopefully the most trustables one, since I wouldn't be able to try it until it gets here) and maybe what things should I also buy (like strings or a case to carry it).
Thanks for all the help!
I have no way to make it up for you but maybe I can upload a song when I get it!
EDIT: forgot to mention which type of ukulele, I believe the soprano to be the most popular, so it would be my choice unless anyone believes a concert one would be better!
