Aha! Having popped round to Bass Towers, including the exquisite shed extension, I was subjected to a quick blast on this! I think it needs to come to Owston…..

My personal Ukulele prowess has facilitated the need to 'up-ones-game' and actually buy one that has the frets in the right place thus giving me a fighting chance to play stuff 'in tune'.
