Flight Uke Tip, Ukulele Diary

It is November, and the holiday season is right around the corner. If you are reading this post, chances are that you are one of the following types of people:

A person who has a ukulele player in their life and you would like to buy them a gift

A person who plays ukuleles and needs ideas to provide for others

A person who wants to buy a first ukulele for someone else (e.g. child, parent, friend)

Here are some great gift ideas—many are very practical and represent things that ukulele players need, use, and eventually need to replace or replenish!

A. Flight Travel Ukuleles. They are inexpensive, rugged, sound great, and can be taken on any adventure. ($80 or less)
