" Love this Mya-Moe!! I've been playing uke for about 2 years. I'm probably an intermediate level player and I especially enjoy learning and playing Fingerstyle . Let me tell you, it really is easier to play Fingerstyle on a well-made ukulele like this one is. I saw and heard a noticeable difference right away. Looking forward to many more years of playing on my Mya Moe- thanks"
