(I just upload a video played on a nice copy of Espirito de Santo Uke...)

I just took ukulele recently, and I love early hawaiian music (Ernest Ka'ai for example) Uke is a very nice and versatile instrument.
Regards,

However, different music has given rise to different techniques.
I own both a tenor ukulele (I know, not the real thing) and a regular one and enjoy playing them very much.
My tenor ukulele is a Martin and might be over 60 years old according to the previous owner.
Glad to have you around.
