Hi Nicole, welcome to UU! One can learn lots here....

Could it be that Meta just doesn't care?

Passion, I like it! I now have a new passion for the violin/fiddle, but I'm not buying any more. I'm having a new uke made instead..... Go figure.

I don't know what Milo wood is. Milo's a cattle feed crop in the Great Plains of the US where I was born.....

I rarely if ever use a hammer on or a pulloff. I consider them intermediate tricks. But I do some sliding. Sliding down the neck (toward the headstock) is more challenging than sliding up.

First, you need to set your high cost limit. That will save you lots of time. Second, do you know what you expect from your ukulele. Performance use? Gigging or busking? Or sitting at home just making merry for yourself? Or jamming with friends? Do you want "The One" that you can play and be...

This time, I disagree with both of them. My $600+ ukulele is my go to, my performance uke. Never had one quite like before.

Congrats on the new concert scale! Is that maple on the top? Does it have a radiused fretboard?

Donna LoPrinzi had never built a comfort edge into an ukulele. I talked her into it, mine was her first one with it. It's a challenging process....the Cocobolo I have is the only one with a comfort edge.

Thanks for exposing bad Luna, Baz. We all need to steer clear of stuff like this, or what I call Ukulele Shaped Objects.
