Guitars & Music Tech

Whilst I like the sound of guitars (particularly resonators) my obsession is more their cousin the ukulele. Mostly I play acoustically, occasionally I hook them up to guitar pedals and amps if the mood takes me. 

I like repairing and building to but my time for these activities has been limited recently.

I have three ukuleles (tenor, concert, and soprano) and a cavaquinho!

The different tuning puts me off, I have to admit but I might give it a go one day.

Bass does seem cool. I make do with an octave pedal for now. I nearly snapped and bought a used bass last year but ukes will start overtaking the house if I get any more!

Yes it would need to be a particularly bad day for them not to bring on a smile.

Nah I’m pretty awful at cavaquinho because it is a completely different tuning (D-G-B-D), but it is a nice sound!

I love uke's. I have a concert also with the wound G preference.

I want a bass uke - they're so cool.

One great thing about ukuleles in general is simply holding and playing one cheers me up. 

Nice. I have two tenors (Low G with wound G & C strings and a reentrant D), a super tenor with high G and a soprano. Would you say the cavaquinho has any advantage?
