Vintage ‘Les Paul’ Style Ukulele

After seeing Mahalo's Flying V Ukulele, I wanted to see what else Mahalo had to offer in the way of ukuleles.  A quick ebay search turned up an auction for a VINTAGE SUNBURST UKULELE Mahalo Acoustic Ukelele + Case

That thing is foxy!  It is also, apparently, a limited edition.  But, it does come with a gig bag.  So, if you were looking for a step-up on the standard ukulele starter kit, this might be a great way to go.  The auction includes free shipping, from Great Britain , so that seems pretty decent.

WOAH!!!

Hold the phone, check out this deal for what appears to be the same instrument

Something like $8 cheaper!  And, with Amazon Prime it qualifies for free shipping.  Actually, I think that you get free shipping anyway because it's over $50.  Score!  Something tells me, though, that the ebay auction will be cheaper for our friends across the pond.  It seems like many of the Amazon products that I list are quite a bit more in Europe.

Anyway, you have two methods for acquiring the same beautiful ukulele!

Heck.  Just get both and send the extra one to me, right?  I mean, that seems only fair.

So, it's a lazy Sunday afternoon.  It's below freezing outside so I'm watching Ice Age 3 with the family and checking out ebay auctions for fun ukulele stuff.  Then I happen upon this little fella:

Ahhh.. cute!  It looks like something that Ralphie should have played in "A Christmas Story".   You know, like maybe that made some alternative version where he wished for this instead of the Red Rider BB Gun?  At the time of this post, it's only $10 and that seems like a pretty good deal for a vintage ukulele.  Plus, imagine what a badass you would fell like if you were doing Metallica Ukulele covers with a vintage children's Ukulele. So.. there ya have it:
