picked up a Ukulele!!!

Postby Surfer513 » Wed Dec 15, 2010 2:22 am

I'm an avid guitarist (acoustic steel string, and flamenco guitar), and yesterday I purchased something I've been wanting for a long time...a Ukulele! it is definitely an extremely unique instrument, and I'm really enjoying it.

just thought I'd share :D any other Ukulele players out there???

i'm a very impulsive buyer haha. recently down at my local beach break there was this guy playing the ukulele. i looked at the waves(1-2 ocational 3) then i sat down and started to enjoy the music out in the sun with wind at a low 2 knots. I can imagine how in teh summertime girls will be all over you! surfer/ukulele player.

Hell yeah. Ukelele's rule! My mate plays one and its a great compliment to a bit of guitar playing round the beach campfire. Gives it all a nice warm tone and harmonic. It definitely brings in passers bye. Just be sure to have enough Jack to share out!

Yep, I play a uke. Not the best player but certainly a lot of fun!

Noah and the Whale is a fave of mine!
