Beginner Ukulele

Alanstrainor

I've decided I want to dabble with playing a Ukulele, I've been a guitarist for 10+ years, I also play the tenor banjo the odd time, so I reckon this wont be a big transition for me! I'm just looking for some advice, on a relatively cheap, yet good Ukulele to start me off.

I'm thinking of something along the lines of this:

An Ibanez concert Ukulele. I doubt I can go too far wrong with it, given the brand reputation. But are there any other options people have?

Last year I purchased a ukulele. I found the transition quite easy as I also play guitar..
Anyway I only spent about 25 euro on a mahalo ukulele. They are good to mess around with. You don't have to worry about them getting damaged because they aren't too expensive and you can play a large range of chords and fills on them. Just don't expect them to sound great when playing more complex chords was what I was told and after playing it for a while I must say it can play all the major, minor,7th, chords etc and it sounds fine. The neck is a bit thin though and they do feel a little bit cheap . However that's what I like about it , If you don't find yourself into it then you haven't spent too much money.

Saying that, I played my friends concert uke and I noticed straight away that it has a better sound , nicer feel and wider neck but cost more.
A quick visit to a music shop and you will see what I mean.
