I know its a strange question, but does anyone own a Ukulele?

I'm looking to possibly buy one, and would like to have a play before i commit my hard earned cash.

i think that is probably safest not to ask why i want one.

I have a ukelele, great fun! I'd be glad to show you how easy it is to play if you are already a competent guitarist.

i'm an approximate guitarist. (bang out enough slab chords and it'll sound ok)

i believe that uke's have a different tuning, but that shouldn't be too much of an obstacle.

soon i can realise be dream of doing punk classics and HMHB songs on a uke.

"Do you sing?"

Sofa, you still prepared to give lessons? Am very tempted by http://www.musicroom.com/se/ID_No/0412704/details.html?kbid=1582 as a self-birthday present.
Even if I don't learn to play it properly, it'll look nice on the wall.

I brought my husband a Black Flying V Uke a few years ago. Song and Groove - down the bottom of town on Wolverhampton Road, usually have one or two in for a fairly good price (less then £20)
