I am a guitarist that bought a Kamaka tenor while on vacation in Kauai in 2005. I currently own a Blackbird Farallon tenor, and a Magic Fluke that I use while traveling. I currently teach guitar and uke lessons to disabled vets. The uke is much easier for the vets to learn, so I am teaching and playing more ukulele than ever.

My salute to you for taking time doing what you do with the vets .

Music is a healer no doubt about it . It's helped to healed my broker heart more than one time and in fact is now .

Nice of you to be of service to those who served us all .

The little uke is such a powerful instrument .

Aloooha man

Don't ask me about the Ric style uke. It's a home-mod I did.
