Dear Pedro, I play guitar and was looking for a more portable alternative to bring on hikes and outings. On a whim, I picked up a ukulele. Once a struck a chord, I knew the uke was the right choice for me—I found a chart and was banging out all the major chords. The short scale and small body make the ukulele a great alternative for the traveling guitarist.

There’s nothing like a little music when you’re outdoors, Nick. I even serenade the stars occasionally when I’m out in my corral. The Boss heard me once and threw his shoe at me. I don’t think he’s a music lover.
