    Kind of backwards that I had already order this Uke last week and while waiting for it to arrive, I'm researching it.
    I really enjoyed your review, but I do wonder if mine will come with the picks, and the finger shaker. These items aren't listed in the Amazon listings. Maybe you got lucky?
    Thanks for the great review! can't Having never even held a Uke before, I can't wait to see your follow up review on this Uke.
    Oh.. and the new pup.. Need more pup on the next video!

      I’m glad to hear you have one of these on the way! It is a lovely uke, and I will certainly post more videos with it soon. It is really beautiful to play. I especially love the strings. They are D’addario strings and really nice on the fingers.
      I was surprised by the picks and finger shaker too! I hope you get these also.
      Little Poppy will certainly feature in future videos. She is a little sweet heart.

      @@YouandBreeMusicTutorials Mine showed up today but with out the picks or the finger shaker. It also didn't come with a battery for the tuner. Stupid me was thinking should I just buy a battery or exchange it? Then it hit me I can just use a phone app. LOL.
      So far, about the only thing I've been able to do it tune it. I've been checking it about once an hour and every time I've checked, it needed to be tweaked to get it back in tune. I did figure out how to play do-re-me.... LOL.. Got me excited.
      There is one thing I noticed about this right away, the strings don't hurt my finger tips when I press them against a fret. This is a huge win for me since when I tried guitar about 10 years ago, I gave up within a week because of the pain...
      Can't wait for some more vids!

      @@crabjoe that is a shame yours didn’t come with the finger shaker or picks. Are you in Australia? Perhaps it is an Amazon Au thing.
      My battery was loose in the tuner box and I almost missed it. Could be worth checking if it is stuck in the instruction pamphlet. Phone apps are great for tuning, but your tuner will be handy if you decide to join a group of other musicians as it tunes off the vibrations of the wood rather than a microphone.
      It will need some tweaking while the strings settle.
      I have a playlist of tutorials for beginners on my channel that you may find useful. ☺️
      The strings are lovely. Out of all of my ukuleles, these strings have been the softest and sweetest. 🎶

      @@YouandBreeMusicTutorials I was thinking maybe it was missing because I'm in the US, but when I looked up the listing on Amazon's Aussie site, it looked the same. I think you got lucky or someone really likes you. ;-)
      As for the missing battery, I'm not too worried. I've got a violin I ordered on the way and that's supposed to come with a tuner too. I'll probably never be able to play the violin, but I've always wanted to, so I bought one.
      I'm no musician, but I did look for a Ukulele club. There is one in Baltimore, but they stopped meeting. I'm guessing it's because of Corona. I can't wait for this pandemic to be over so I can just get out. Go boating, fishing, skiing and of course, get to a few Uke club meetings to get some pointers since they said they welcome complete beginners!
      I'll be sure to check out your beginner tutorials because I need all the help I can get!
      Thank you, and I hope you're having a wonderful New Year!

      Oh I am glad you have another tuner on the way. The violin is such a beautiful instrument. I hope your learning experience with it goes well.
      Sadly, so many ukulele clubs have had to stop due to the pandemic. I feel very grateful to be in Australia where our restrictions have eased again due to low case numbers. Hopefully, things start to improve over there for you too. I think you'll find ukulele clubs to be very supportive and motivating.

    Sorry, that's not a flat back. There is a slight arch. Arches can very. In this one, it narrows toward the neck and is thicker at the lower bout on the side view. You can test it by holding the back of the body against a wall. If it were flat, the entire back would be touching the wall with no rocking. Most ukuleles do NOT seem to be flat backed (with the exception of sopranos) gauging from my experience.

    is it battery powered (i know it sounds stupid but in the description it says it takes batteries)

    • @YouandBreeMusicTutorials
      @YouandBreeMusicTutorials  3 года назад

      I think that’s a reasonable question.
      Many ukuleles have a battery if they have a pick up (plug into an amplifier).
      However, this one does not.
      It will say that it comes with a battery because this model comes with a clip on tuner which does require a battery.
      I hope this helps.
