Hello!

[mrs_tribble]

I've been playing string instruments since I was first introduced to a guitar in school when I was eleven years old. The guitar in my userpic here is my faithful old Chantry acoustic cutaway, Guinevere. I also have a mandolin named Gwen, grew up playing the recorder, organ and piano and am a singer.

A year ago a fellow string player seduced me into the world of Ukuleles.

I chose Mahalo because I'm on disability and can't afford a lot, and I find that the Mahalo ukuleles are fun and sound pretty good! I own seven so far, and they all have names:

Morgana (red)
Daffyd (yellow)
Illyria (pale blue)
Mystique (dark blue)
Angelus (black)
Spike (white)
Peril (purple)

So yes... I'm addicted to the adorable little Hawaiian guitar! I don't play often, but I find it so simple to learn. I would like to have played more this year, but my disability made me quite ill and so it has to wait for now.

I'm looking forward to meeting other ukulele fans here!

I love how much music you have in your life! Lovely to meet you. :)

Nice for you to have a lot of them and to enjoy them! I really should pick up one in secret and give it a try--usually I'm a singer and tried to get better at keyboards recently, but got ill. Health has been an issue for me too, as I see it has for you--music is so great though!

You have a ukulele named Illyria! ♥ I do not have all my icons uploaded here or I would have commented with a character-appropriate one.

I have not even joined this community yet, though I have recently begun learning the guitar and considering ukulele because it's smaller and my hands are small. >.> But I had to approve of your naming schemes.
