Ukulele Problem |
I love the ukulele, and it's a problem.

Awesome Uke’n’paddle built by “Titch the Clown” of Australia.
Check out some of his other work on Instructables! He makes strange ukes out of seemingly worthless scrap wood and things you can find in the garage. If I ever get a break from school I plan on giving one of these a try with some old shelves.
“Ice Cream”
From the HiSessions.com show.Check it out and reblog to spread the word!
Thanks everyone! Love you all :D
Corey Fujimoto rocks the Ko’olau archtop prototype! Some fantastic playing. This very ukulele is for sale at PuaPua for only $8000.

Happy birthday to George Harrison! He would have been 69 years old today. Here he is rocking a Kamaka 6-string uke with a full band. Check out the tuba-playing gnome too.
Jake Shimabukuro tearing it up on Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep.” On Perez TV, of all places!
Jon Braman, the father of ukulele hip-hop, performing “Remedy” at the NY Uke Fest 2011. One of my favorite local musicians and one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet.
Bill Tapia plays “Young At Heart” at the NY Uke Fest 2009. He was 101 years old in this video! Sadly, Bill passed away in December 2011 at age 103.
Kamoa Ukulele Company, based on Kaua’i. Used to be the house brand at Larry’s Music, but they’re branching out and making some of the neatest ukes out there now.
Check out the amazing semi-hollow electrics at 5:49 in the video. I’ll take one in teal!
