- #270 Common Myrtle Concert Tradition
" My Tradition Concert is the "workhorse" of my collection. I use her for all outdoor gigs and she is getting a workout this summer. I am thrilled to be back in the schedule. I am in the process of selling all the ukes I have tried and not loved. This will be my third Mya Moe and love it will be!"
