Nigel, I planned to get some sort of concert-sized uke for me to use at the school where I teach. A benefactor donated 24 shiny new ukes (bright green!!) right at the end of the year. Someday I'll remember his name! Anyway, I've been diddling around since June; went to a uke workshop at the Old Songs Festival and saw some Flukes.

I did try a Samick at the shop here in town, but only certain dealers sell Flukes. So it was time for a trip! I also tried the Flea but there was no contest when my baby fell into my arms!

Mine is Uke-alyptus colored. Go to the website I highlighted on my first post and see how they look!

There's no way Janet Klein's was a Fluke, as you'll know when you go to the fleamarketmusic.com site.

So now I can play "Over the Rainbow" and I'm working on "Little Grass Shack". Next, maybe"Five Foot Two".

I'm a trad. singer so this is totally new territory for me! I'm having a ball!
