My new Uke

[dirk55]

Hi guys,
After a long time of saving money, comparing, listening to sound samples, a little feedback from teacher Andrew, there it is: my new Ukelele, the Kanile’a K3 T. I spent my last dime on a low G string hehe.
It sounds sooooo nice and warm. And now I’m going to enjoy it, practice a lot to improve my technique. Of course with the
help from rockclass101.com! Greetings from Dirk😊

Nice! I’m looking to make my first upgrade from the laminate starter to something in solid wood. I’ve read great things about that Uke you have. Enjoy!

It looks beautiful! Can’t wait to hear it 🙂

Wow, so beautiful! Congrats! I bet it’s a dream to play. Looking forward to hearing it!

Gorgeous! Congrats on the new little guy. Sounds bite?

[drefrank]

Congrats on that beauty!

[dirk55]

Thank you all.

But … (kidding): Teacher Andrew taught me a percussion trick on the uke in one of his great lessons. I had to slap a drum on the top.

Delighted with my new instrument, I hit a little too hard unfortunately. The result: a crack in the top. Now just busy with gluing. Then I will let the community hear something.

I hope the tear has no influence on this once beautiful sounding Kanile’a. We are going to experience it, haha!

Cheers,
Dirk

@dirk55 I’m sure Kanilea would fix that for you. Koalohas come with a lifetime warranty so I’m thinking that Kanilea does as well.

@dirk55 – I’m curious to know if you managed to fix it?

That’s such a beautiful Uke! Enjoy.

That sure is a nice one.
Looks like you are into cycling.
Have you done cycling in Japan. Hopefully this year I’ll make it up to Hokkaido and do a month cycling tour there.
