I have a ukulele that cost about 5 bucks. Same here, but I found I then had to buy strings for it which were almost 6 dollars a set, and a felt ukelele pick is like 3 bucks. A soft case for a uke will run about 40 bucks for a decent one. Don't even get me started on how much a ukelele pickup or mic...

Thanks Erik. To be honest, my money was on Humboldt Head.
