So I bought a baritone uke from the 50’s or 60’s probably, a Barclay that somebody in the past (clearly not recently painted black. It is actually smaller than my other baritones and thinner but with a beautiful sound. I was wondering if it would be safe to use goo gone on it to try to bring...

Sweet little concert Cordoba. Absolutely nothing wrong with her. I bought her as an inexpensive small uke to take to the beach while hubby fishes but sorry little girl, there is just nothing like a baritone for me so I am selling her. smoke free home..new strings. Played about 5 weeks. Padded...

Hi, I have heard such amazing things about the Pepe strings from Strings by Mail..we put them on my concert last night and the e string instantly popped when we weren’t even close. I spoke to them and they think it was a defective string.. anybody else had this issue.. they are sending a...

Look who followed me home! she sounds so beautiful and was sold to me at a price I could do as a teacher! was owned by a musician who started his career running around in a VW van in the late 60’s! He played her a bit for me as I am still a super newbie and just wow!

I might have a problem because my banjolele came today and after work, I wandered through the used shop a few minutes off the beach and found a lovely little Cordoba tenor in a sweet case for $45 in brand new condition but no strings.. I would like to put strings to make it DGBE but when I read...

Hello, My first banjolele showed up today.. she followed me home from Upstate NY to FL..Hoping to figure out an approx age or manufacturer….appears to be a plastic cover/sides

Wondering if this is homemade and maybe from the 20’s? The headstock design seems odd as does the kind of fatter base..if you click on the photo you can see the whole headstock..

If you saw a dream uke that was only in your price range because it has a crack and some crazing but does not affect playability or sound quality, would you bite?

Anybody know anything about vintage Coast Ukuleles? Cannot find anything online? Is is another one of the Harmony type that were sold under different brands or something even more special?

Hello All, Trying again. Didn’t get too far during Covid buuuuut, doing lots better this time. Hubby bought me an electric Les Paul Tenor for Valentines Day… taking weekly lessons this time . Just ordered a flight travel TUS-25 with the VW bus on it to carry and play with while we are walking...

Hi All, I’m back after being gone for a few years. Playing again but I found this pretty little uke. Adding strings tonight but I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the company; I am a sucker for history. I am thinking maybe 60’s? I have googled but come up short.

I bought this beauty just after the pandemic and learning but in love with the mellow sounds..one string at least is a metal wound string but no idea what’s on there. When I replace, I don’t want to change the sound so what do I order please? Tia

I saw something on indestructibles.com about how you take a toy guitar (First Act) and turn it into a baritone Ukulele. Has anyone tried this? I found an absolutely adorable First Act guitar at Goodwill for 4.99 so I figure that I am not out much if it doesn't work. Hubby is going to give it...
