i got a lanikai and it is great. it was cheap, not as cheap as a mahalo, but it's way better than a mahalo, and worth every penny. but it sounds great and is easy to tune and it's a beautiful uke, though not flashy and i didn't pay an arm and a leg for it so i'm happy.
I havn't tried the LU-21 TE, or any other Lanikai. There arent many ukes on sale here in Australia. I bought my martin on ebay. I'm suer it will be OK for a beginner instrument. Anything around the 50 to 100 dollar mark would be OK. I might do a Beatles number on one of the upcoming lessons but I wouldn't really consider "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", it's not funny enough!
These lessons are the best, enjoyable and very easy to learn from.
Thanks a million Benny keep up the good work. Any help with learning four srting banjo???? cheers.

Hey Benny, Thanks for the lessons. Lost of fun. My vote is for more old timey music!
jaykyburz 5 years ago
Thanks for the encouragement :-) Yeah, I think I'll stick with the old time and novelty tunes. Keeps the fun aspect of the instrument to the fore.

do u have a song planned for next video yet? If you could do Amazing grace that would be awsome.
demonbuketyo 5 years ago
I will consider doing amazing grace but I prefer old-time songs and novelty songs. I threw in Auld Lang Syne for the Xmas, new Year season.

in your next video can you show us the best way to strum? I am having some trouble strumming well.
demonbuketyo 5 years ago
Yep. I'll do a strumming segment on the next vid. You might have a look at Lesson 1 where I do a basic strumming section.
