Ukulele

Only a tiny edition of the guitar, but not in all cases without a great sound. There are some real masters known on this instrument. In the history there was Ukulele Ike, aka Cliff Edwards, Roy Smeck from the US was good and in the UK there was this man on the ukulele: George Formby. He played a kind of banjo-ukelele. And then a long time almost nothing happened to mention (the always funny Tiny Tim had a one and only hitsingle with Tiptoe Thru The Tulips) … until Jake Shimabukuro from Japan played George Harrison’s While My Guitar Gently Weeps on the ukulele, and the instrument was back on the map of the music world. It became a kind of cultus, people loved this little guitars and there was a small hype on it’s way …
