OK, I really don't want to talk about this because it makes the problem real and I have to face the truth ... BUT ... my Lanikai concert that is a week old has a rattle in it. (I've tried to search the forums and havent' seen this.) I did not hear it in the store, but you know how that goes.
The rattle is in the body of the uke. It does not rattle (that I can tell) while I'm playing. It rattles if I turn it over or shake it lightly. It does not have a pick up in it. It sounds like the rattle is where the neck connects to the body. There is no movement or anything - just rattle. Sounds kind of like metal - like a loose nut on a screw.
I am really stressing over this. The store I bought it at does not accept returns but they are a Lanikai dealer. I have e-mailed their repair supprt but have not heard back from them.
I do not want to lose this uke. I don't want a replacement. I want this one fixed. I have an attachment to it. It has a lovely voice. It's my first!
I want my baby fixed! Please tell me this is an easy fix and I should stop worrying ..... I have fears of them saying it is a defect and that they need to replace it ....
help ...
