I like that one.Just started screwing around with it today. Yeah, it's pineapple, one of the main reasons I got this one, the other being that it was the best priced from the Kala brand. I feel like I'll be alright once I get used to these tiny frets, it's a soprano so it's pretty small. |

DeadLazyBum Site Admin '♥' Level 33 Posts: 2,922 Submissions: 137 | Yeah. I mess around on my friend's uke every once in a while. Transitioning from being a guitar player, to something that small takes a bit of getting used to. |

 Overlord Member 'Supreme Ruler' Level 16 Posts: 1,068 Submissions: 19 | I bought one two weeks ago at a garage sale for $5. The standard tuning for it is very weird compared to a guitar. I'm hoping you'll post videos. I learned how to play "muffin man" on mine because that's what I found on youtube but there will be no videos forthcoming. I have, however, received a petition from the neighbors to please stop singing/playing outside. I really thought they would be happy they no longer had to listen to my sole repertoire of "little bunny foo foo". |

I really thought they would be happy they no longer had to listen to my sole repertoire of "little bunny foo foo".I've actually always found guitar tuning really weird, I can't see any logical sequence in EADGBE, uke is just tuned to a GCEA, which makes sense to me because it makes playing either C or Am really easy, albeit the high G string is in a weird position in the sequence. Maybe eventually I'll do a video or something, but I picked up accordion fairly quickly, I feel like I have an easier time with keys than strings, so this one will probably take a little longer. |

AE Member 'Albino Ethiopian' Level 19 Posts: 1,013 Submissions: 18 | Yeah, that's what I meant though. If it were EADGCF it would at least have a logical pattern. |

AE Member 'Albino Ethiopian' Level 19 Posts: 1,013 Submissions: 18 | Other than my terribly out of tune piano (I do screw around on it a little despite that, though), they're actually all in that picture (the accordion is in the case). I don't really play the guitar in the background, I'm pretty terrible at it. I might take a picture of the piano tomorrow to show you guys. Also, mostly online. I got the uke from Amazon, the washboard from eBay, and the accordion from some site called Jack's Music Store. |

Graboid, if you ever want to give away that violin for free and ship it to me without charging, let me know. I'll take it. |

graboid90 Soldier 'Bandersnatch' Level 20 Posts: 798 Submissions: 10 | Lol, its "None", and the Violin was a gift from my girlfriend, so, sorry. I can play 1 string very well on any stringed instrument. I can play the tin whistle a wee bit, and on the Violin I have figured out the 5ths. My grandfather can play the hell out of the harmonicas, so I gave them to him. |

AE Member 'Albino Ethiopian' Level 19 Posts: 1,013 Submissions: 18 | From what I've heard, the tin whistle is the easiest instrument to start but the hardest to master. I saw an instructional book for it at the Salvation Army once, if it were likely to still be there (it's been like 6 months) I'd get it and send it to you. |
