Subject: RE: Tech: Ukulin Madness
I'm in sunny BC, Williams Lake, when I'm not in Wells BC or on the road.

Hope you find what you need there. The Ukelin has a haunting sound. The ukelin originally came with a "ribbon bow", an acutal ribbon, not hair. We have found that psaltery bows work, though the broader hair bows, not the string type, work best. Violon bows work but can have a tendancy for the tip of the bow to catch under the string anchor and brak the bow.

Cheers
