LisaFender Play, which is a subscription guitar lesson service, is offering an extended free trial during this shutdown. Mr. Lisa subscribed for a while, but ended up not having the time to devote to it. The lessons seemed very good though. Just another option......

wtgWirecutter recommended a ukelele, but after reading the reviews at Guitar Center for the recommended one, I think maybe this one is a better choice:

I have three. Maybe I’ll be able to trade one for some toilet paper...

wtgI ordered a uke.
I chatted online with Guitar Center and the guy knocked ten bucks off the price (phone-only discount).
Mr wtg thinks I'm nuts. Well, that was a pre-existing condition....

wtgIt came!
(I hope I become a better uke player than I am photographer....)
Mr wtg wanted me to reiterate that he thinks I've gone off the deep end.
He did get a good chuckle when I plucked a string and our near-deaf geriatric golden retriever looked up, stood up, and beat a hasty retreat out of the kitchen.
This might not be a good sign.
Now I gotta figure out how this thing works.....may not be able to get to it for a few days...

DougSo, the grass skirt is being shipped separately?

wtgI already have one. Should be back from the dry cleaner any day now.
Actually, many years ago my MIL bought me a muumuu when she and FIL went to Hawaii. It's long gone.
Guess I'll just have to borrow one of Mr wtg's Hawaiian shirts.

QuirtEvansMary Anna’s asking whether I’ve looked at ukuleles. I sense momentum building ...

ShiroKuroWTG, awesome!!!
Do you have a smart phone? You should be able to get a tuning app to help you tune it (if you are not confident in your own abilities that is.)
We need regular progress reports!!!
