Thanks to a fellow b'chatter sarah thomas who put me on to the "ukulelecosmos forum" I came across a stunning craftsman Stuart Longridge who built this for me-

Alas, no Stuart Longridge ukes but the one next to last is one I put together myself from a Stewmac kit.

The TV Pal is made of plastic, as is the Islander on the far right. The Islander plays fine - made by Maccaferri, but the TV Pal is a bit of a gimmick. My own attempt sits between the two plastic fantastics. The one on the far left (La Foley) is the finest - and the one I'd save if the house was on fire.

And I always thought there was something oddly appealing about Wallace - now I know what. Cheers for that.

Haha. I've got a Moana at the moment but nothing special. Been tempted by some of the new Fenders and these chaps: [url="http://www.facebook.com/unkuleles"]http://www.facebook.com/unkuleles[/url]

Unkuleles! Presumably for getting down with some Unky grooves.
And no doubt we'll start to see some dubious instruments alleged to have 'been in unkle's loft' for thirty years.
And so on and so forth.
