PS Have you heard Doyle Dykes play his Harrison Tribute. He performed it at the Taylor booth at Namm... also very cool.

I ended up buying a tiny acoustic guitar from Breedlove that is tuned to A for my hammock time in Hawaii. Maybe I should find a uke that plays in tune while I'm there instead! :)

Jake Shimabukuro is an incredible musician! He's from Hawaii and considered one of the best uke players today.

If you ever have the opportunity to see him perform, he will blow you away with his energy, passsion and the varied musical styles he can play on his tenor uke.

He's huge in Hawaii and Japan and only a matter of time until he is more reknown all over.

He's usually on tour and worth the drive and $ to see if he's gigging at a venue even remotely closeby. :)
