Great video, Daniel! I had not heard of some of these companies before! Thanks for getting the word out!

[iHeartUkes]

What a great video! I have never been, which is truly sad as I was born and raised in California. One day. But I am sure glad you not only made it, but produced a great collection of interviews!

Thanks for posting this video. In my neck of the woods... Writing instrumental commercially licensed music as writer/composer and self-administered publisher (BMI, Inc / The MLC) I've recently found some (not all) ukulele companies are only interested in how many subscribers are on a YouTube channel and that it.. Not about the music that a person is playing and writing. It's great to see so many Ukulele companies out there then the usual mass marketed brands.

Hi, Daniel! I enjoyed watching your interviews at NAMM and seeing all the new products. I like that you interviewed some lesser-known brands. There are usually many videos of interviews with the big brands but I bet yours is the only video interviewing some of these brands. I was impressed with Hug’s offerings and how concerned the interviewee is with providing inexpensive, good quality ukuleles for beginners. I have been looking into the Klos brand and was very excited to see the wood-look nickel finish for the first time! I love my Outdoor ukuleles and have been curious if these Klos ukuleles sound better than the Outdoor ukuleles (enough to compensate for the large price difference). I would love to hear that Klos 8-string ukulele! Thank you for doing all these interviews and for taking us along on your NAMM experience!

Daniel, this was so Interesting! I know quite a few beginners who love their Enyas's as s they can go anywhere with them. Sorry I didn't run into you❣

I didn't know a baritone body was on a tenor uke from Ohana. It's exactly what I want.

Not impressed with hug handmade ukuleles at all fit and finish very poor the mango not worth that kind of money I think anyone with any woodworking experience could buy a kit and do as good a job definitely not in the class as other Hawaiian hand builds
