Finally bought 1, then another....

Thanks for all your help. I finally bought an old noname birdseye maple banjo uke on Ebay ($51.00 + shipping). Then I bought another which turned out to be a Keech ($32 + shipping). It is a real find.

Now I'm listening to Cliff Edwards, Wendell Hall, R. Crumb, Frank Crumit, and George Formby all the time. What other "greats" should I get to learn the sound and songs of this great instrument?

The ukes gave me the disease. I also bought a baritone uke, and a tenor banjo which I am probably going to tune like a baritone uke. And I have a bid on another old Dixie banjo uke. When will it end ? Help!
