Ukelele

My husband got a Ukulele for Christmas. There are several positives and negatives to this interesting little version of his guitar. It's smaller, so he can more easily pick it up and torture me with it any time or place. On the other hand, it's cheaper so when I "accidentally" smash it to bits he won't be as mad. It's prettier sounding, when played prettily, but the attempted hard metal are quite a bit more grinding when done on the Uke.
