    Anyone else think baritone ukuleles are evil?

    Alright first off let me point out the fact that I am a passionate ukulele player, in addition to a devoted guitarist. For both of these instruments, I have undying respect and consistently find myself in awe of the elegance of their design. That said, I have always lowered my eyebrows at the...

    Song Help Request "Love" from Robin Hood

    It's sort of an obscure song, but it's really pretty. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3Jf1P9wKIg Anybody mind helping me out here? Chords would be fine, but there's this cute little Hawaiian-sounding guitar lick at the beginning I think might deserve tabbing. Cheers!

    Harp ukuleles..

    http://www.harpguitars.net/history/month_hg/month-hg-ukes.htm I recently came across this article and I have to say, I find myself fascinated with the idea of my own little harp ukulele. I'm sure they're incredibly expensive and a bother to maintain and frustratingly unversatile, but they're so...

    Let's talk chord/melody

    So I've been working at FaceMeltingUkulele's adaption of "Little Wing" and it's really opened up to me this neat new world of rhythm/lead playing. It's, uh, sort of blowing my mind. Obviously, there are a lot of different styles within that idiom, of which Hendrix's funky little ornaments are...

    A quick question..

    http://ukuleleunderground.com/2008/01/14/uke-minute-1-accessories/ I really fancy that cute little strap he uses near the end.. Does anybody know who makes/where I can get them? I've been digging around musicians friend and like 99.999 percent of the straps are in the peg style.

    Beater Uke..

    I'm in the market for a ukulele somewhere between "Playable" and "toy". I'm looking for something around 30-40$+shipping, and I'm not sure what my options are. I've used the search button and apparently a lot of folks have nice things to say about the plastic Kala dolphin bridge ukes, but I'm...

    Tremolo bridge..

    Alright I'm working on a cigar box build, and I'm in love with the idea of sticking a whammy on there. Right now I'm looking at a Bigsby tailpiece and I'm curious as to how this will affect the sound of the instrument as a whole (tone, volume, sustain, etc..). If you have any other suggestions...

    Resophonic uke build

    Alright.. So I've recently fallen in love with the timbre of everything with a resonator in it, and I want to try my hand at a Dobrolele, if you will. That said, I have zero experience with resonators! I have no idea where to start! Apart from the obvious (neck, body, tuning machines, etc..) I...
