Well I suppose it had to happen one day, dropping a uke that is. But a word of warning and a shout-out to KoAloah ukes. Yesterday I picked up my soprano Pikake in its gig bag, checked to see if it was zipped up the sides (beware those two zippers) and put it on my back (the bag has back pack straps). I then walked out of the house to the car and all of a sudden heard a horrible sounding clunk as something hit the driveway. You guessed it, although my gig bag was zipped on the side I hadn't brought the two zippers together on the bottom and the uke slipped out, bounced off the concrete and ended up on the grass. There was a minor ding on the front side seam, but no other damage and the uke was still in tune! So a shout out to KoAloha and a warning to everyone else to make sure those zippers are closed tight. cheers, g2
