The nice UPS man brought me an `ukulele and kope from Maui Roasters. And the mail man brought a Keoki Kahumoku learn to play `ukulele DVD. What a nice day. And I made kalua pig for dinner. And I played and sang "White Sandy Beach" up until the Fm. Well, at least I did a C and an F. I am on my way!
Thanks friends for all your help and advice.
If interested, here are some pictures of my new baby. It really sounds great! And it is so pretty.

Anyone looking for `ukulele, I can vouch for musicguymic's great customer service. |

| I have been thinking about starting to learn the ukulele, and this forum has helped me out alot on getting a good head start. I'm not exactly sure which one to purchase. There are so many options, soprano or tenor, different kinds of wood, brands. Can I get some help as to where to start. I am not looking to spend over 250 dollars, but don't want one of those 50 dollar specials from the music stores here in Cleveland. |

Hey Pittdg - I can bring my Kala `ukulele to the hula workshop and you can see it and try it out (Only two weeks - woo-hoo!). I bought mine from Music Guy Mike in Kane`ohe, upon many TPer's opinions. I was fortunate to have Nani let me try out some of her & her son's `ukuleles. Mine sounds great, especially for the price. Try looking at e-bay under musicguymic. I love the action -- works great for me because I have peripheral neuropathy due to diabetes. I like the size of the fretboard, because too small didn't work for me. I think for the money I paid and the service I got from Music Guy Mike, I did well.
Send me your e-mail and I'll send you pictures. |

| I was on ebay and was looking at the various ukulele's. I seen the one your purchased on earlier posts. Nice uke, and if you remember , you can bring your uke to the hula workshop. I cannot wait, nothing like enjoying the hawaiian culture here in Cleveland. My wife and I are making some huli huli chicken in preparation. lol. |
