I'd read that ukes were much easier to fret because the strings are soft and the tunings are slack. Also I liked the idea of learning some simple songs, and having a hobby that does not involve screen time. So I took 2 days reading about ukes and researching my options on Amazon. Yes, I wanted to purchase on Amazon because I would not be out any money if the Great Experiment didn't work out (free returns).
Could it be possible? $55 for a whole setup for a musical instrument that isn't a toy? The reviews were good and the accompanying photos looked likewise, so . . . 3 days later I get a ukulele in the mail. It was neatly boxed with a case and an accessories bag that included everything you need to get started. I plunked away that whole first day. My wrist hurt. My hands hurt. My ribs hurt! (I'm 60, with high mileage.) Tendons that hadn't been stretched in years were stretching.
But I persevered; watched some youtube instruction videos; worked on holding the uke properly. Eventually bought a couple of things to help my journey along: A rubber doughnut hand strengthener. A better strap (the nylon one included irritated my neck). Burt Casey's Ukulele Primer on Kindle. Here's what I think about this specific ukulele:
It's great. It looks very nice -- I love the clean look of the open head and buttons (?) that anchor the strings at the bottom. I like the faux abalone ring around the sound hole. It tunes nicely. I'm pretty sure the koa is laminate, but it doesn't look cheap and the color of the wood is not too light or too dark (I was after a traditional uke look).
After about 10 days, it needed very little tuning or adjustment when I practiced. It sounds lovely. The tuner works great and is very easy to use. Some have said they didn't like the strings that came with this uke, but I have had zero problems with them. I had heard that the first week or so would require frequent tuning until the strings "settled," and that's exactly how it went.
I'm enjoying adding a new chord every few days, and strumming and practicing throughout the day. My hands are still sore, but I'm gaining hand strength and flexibility. That little rubber donut things is great for hand workouts (they sell these on Amazon). For practice I work my way through my chord progressions, play simple songs, and follow the lesson plan in my book. My one piece of advice: Use the strap. It's so helpful as a beginner to not have to worry about ukulele hugging technique when you're trying to focus on your ukulele fretting technique.
So the experiment was a success. My sister's back from Belize with sunburn and tales to tell. And I've got 6 cords, the truth and a ukulele : )
