Thanks, Nigel, I think that is the tuning of my baritone uke, but I'll
check. I haven't found any range for singing yet, not that I've tried much.
But now I feel you've set a challenge and I'll find a Scottish song to sing
with it in folk club. Won't they be pleased!
There is a Ukulele Band of GB (folk) from somewhere in Sussex. There are
seven of them and therefore a bit expensive, but even if they were free???
I rather fancy one of Toby's Lap (lap?) steel guitars, but couldn't I get
one from Iceland as its nearer?  :-)  :-)  :-)  :-)
